What does sustainability mean? That question can sometimes get us here at the New S.H.I.R.E Institute a little tongue-tied. The definition of sustainability can be tricky to pin down, since it all depends to whom one is talking. In this section, we have articles exploring the manifold meanings of "sustainable" and discussions of why sustainability matters to those of us here at the New S.H.I.R.E Institute, as well as why it matters to a variety of other people and organizations. Dissecting why sustainability matters often intersects with conflicting visions of the future, creating fascinating proposals about the various directions our collective technological developments could one day bring. Not all of the viewpoints presented here represent the views of the New S.H.I.R.E Institute, rather we believe in the importance of presenting a variety of perspectives o how to build a better future through a sustainable present.
