Sustainability is popularly defined as meeting the needs of the current generation without compromising the ability for future generations to meet those same needs. Sustainability is, at its core, the ability for a system to maintain itself over time and provide adequately for those in the system throughout that time.So, what are sustainable cities?
A sustainable city is one designed to address social, environmental and economic impact through urban planning and city management. Many sustainable initiatives are achieved by building eco-friendly alternatives into city infrastructure, such as adopting walk and bike lanes. Regulations and fines can also achieve change: waste removal orders have proven to reduce landfill waste. While finding ways to help the planet is essential to sustainability, reducing costs and creating a vibrant culture for citizens are equally important.
