 Sustainable living is a lifestyle that attempts to reduce 
an individual's or society's use of the Earth's natural resources and 
personal resources 
Practitioners of sustainable lifestyle often attempt to reduce 
their carbon footprint by altering method of transportation, energy 
consumption, and diet 
One conception of sustainable lifestyle expresses what it means in 
triple-bottom-line terms as meeting present ecological, societal, and 
economical needs without compromising these factors for future 
generations
 Most basic, sustainable living means living a lifestyle that 
uses as few resources as possible and causes the least 
amount of environmental damage for future generations to 
deal with. 
 Sustainable living must include a reliance on sustainable 
energy. 
 The energy sources used must be renewable rather than 
limited in quantity. 
A sustainable home should be constructed from materials 
that have been produced in an environmentally friendly 
manner
The three important and necessary factors 
involved in maintaining the earth are social, 
environmental, and economic, and the 
environmental factor affects both social and 
economic issues. 
We cannot speak of one factor without 
considering how another is affected by it. 
The hardest factor to initiate is the social one 
because so many refuse to budge upon their long 
standing, wasteful, and inefficient ways of living
Instead of burning fossil fuels that will be depleted 
within short generations, alternative energy such as the 
wind turbine, solar panels, and other green energy 
sources need to be implemented to sustain and care for 
the resources that remain. 
The definition of sustainable living means more today 
than when it was first considered almost 200 years ago. 
Back then it was to improve man’s conditions, today it is 
to maintain man’s functional society and protect the 
environment.
For sustainable engineering solutions and sustainable lifestyle 
choices, we may consider the sustainability of our lifestyles 
through subdivision into the following categories: 
Energy including transport 
Finite resource depletion and waste management 
Water
The energy required to support our lifestyle may be 
subdivided into the following categories: 
Heating 
Electricity for lighting and appliances 
Transport 
Embodied energy in products
The availability of water suitable for drinking is of significant 
concern even in countries like the UK where flooding is not 
uncommon. Increasing population, associated food 
production and industrial processes are putting significant 
pressure on our water resources. As for energy and waste, 
the approach towards the sustainability of water may also be 
expressed as a hierarchy: 
Avoid the use of water 
Use water more efficiently 
Renewable sourcing of water
In the me way that we may think in terms of an energy 
hierarchy and transport hierarchy, we may also consider the 
waste hierarchy. This may be expressed as: 
Avoid generating waste 
Re-use of waste 
Recycle 
Waste-to-energy 
Landfill
