Sustainability...To Me

From this class, I have learned what sustainability is and what I can do to become sustainable. My idea of sustainability is that we can get all we need from our natural environment. I think of ECHO Farm when I think of this topic. They showed how somebody could grow a garden in any type of environment. They also showed us how to get clean water, irrigation systems, what plants could be used for what, farming animals, and so much more. After visiting there is when I really understood what it means to be sustainable. It is working WITH the land instead of AGAINST it. I have actually started my own garden to try to be more sustainable.
