Sustainability

During the 3 R's: Living Green" seminar, an audience member asked how 'sustainability' related to the workshop's main topic of reduce, reuse, recycle.  I didn't have a good answer off the top of my head and admitted as much.

After the seminar was over and I returned to Tulsa, I tore off the top sheet on my daily Living Green calendar and found this perfect salient quote beneath (this one's for you, Chuck!):

"Sustainability is living on nature's income rather than its capital."
-Murray Gell-Mann, Novel Prize-Winning Physicist
