Sustainable Community
Sustainable communities are communities planned, built, or modified to promote sustainable living. This may include sustainability aspects relating to equality, water, transportation, energy, and waste and materials. They tend to focus on environmental sustainability (including development and agriculture) and economic sustainability. Sustainable communities should focus on sustainable urban infrastructure, social equity, and sustainable municipal infrastructure. The intersection of all three areas of sustainability, economy, environment, and equity, are necessary to the creations of a sustainable community.

Famous quotes containing the word community:
“Jesus would recommend you to pass the first day of the week rather otherwise than you pass it now, and to seek some other mode of bettering the morals of the community than by constraining each other to look grave on a Sunday, and to consider yourselves more virtuous in proportion to the idleness in which you pass one day in seven.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
