Sustainability. The word is everywhere, but what does it really mean? How can we get past all the green washing, green bling, green this or green that to understand what sustainability means in our everyday lives?

I like the UN definition of sustainability:  to “meet present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs” (WECD, 1987 UN conference). This definition helps me keep my kids and their future in mind as I go through my day. Not that I think about sustainability every minute of the day, but it reminds me that there is no magical solution. There are, however, decisions I can make right now that will make a difference. It means that sustainability isn’t just about “stuff,” but about community, choices, design and the world around us.

The Grove School’s focus on community is such a wonderful embodiment of the word sustainability. Check out our local events and meet the fantastic staff and teachers who are part of The Grove School community.
