Sustainability?

Sustainability is about
meeting the needs of the present
without compromising the ability of future generations
to meet their own needs

Sustainability is about
The founding principles upon which
the thing being sustained
is built

Look to these,
Know them for what they are.
And here you will learn
and come to know
- apply? -
them for what they are.

"They" say Sustainability is:
Economic
Social
Environmental.
Then look at our own individual lives -
how's our balanced scorecard looking?

The more rich people,
The more poor people.
Know this:
We can only end poverty
when we end the quest for "Rich"

And can someone answer this:
Are we a balanced population
reflecting principles of balance
and moderation?
We exist as a symptom
- a Warning -
that our way is not right,
is toxic.
Which means we go back to the core principle:
"Ownership"
This notion is a flawed platform
Upon which a flawed society
at war
has come about

To warn us.
To practice Karma Yoga.
