"Call for emergence of a human sustainable lifestyle is not out of guilt, shame, judgment, or sacrifice – it's about a strategic, enlightened, reduction in use of resources, and a corresponding, deliberate increase in efficiency, quality, equity, stewardship, trust, and teamwork."
(David Wann)

Are You Ready for a Challenge?

Are you apprehensive or alarmed about the daily stories you hear from different forms of news media on global conditions and the concern they tell us we should all have regarding climate change, water shortages, poverty, failing economies, environmental degradation, or forms of human conflict? Do you fear for the well-being of your own family and the community in which you live? Do you really understand why you might feel this fear and does it in-turn affect your making of decisions, sometimes in the absence of all the facts about a particular issue? And as a result are you unsure about what to do, how to take some positive action, for yourself, your family, your community, and the place (region) you call home? Or have you convinced yourself there is no reason to worry? You have come to the right place! Fear, anxiety and denial are not sustainable. Only hope and the courage to act decisively are sustainable.

Sustainability Now! (SN), a non-profit, community-based organization in Seattle, WA, is ready to sit down with you and other like-minded people to talk about what your community or organization might do to avoid the fear of denial created by daily news stories. Working hand-in-hand, we can assist your community to start taking charge of its own destiny by examining your core values and the things important to you that will represent a sustainable future. Supported by a foundation of solid ideals, SN can effectively introduce the concepts, tools, and practices of sustainability to any individual, group, community, business, government, or practitioner in a way that will promote actions urgently needed to address the many things that bother you about our world today.

You can take the first step in this regard by indicating your interest for participating in the SN Community Sustainability Assessment (CSA) initiative, at no cost to you. How sustainable is your community now? Does it desire to improve its environmental and socio-economic circumstances to become more sustainable? Contact us and let us sit down with you to work through your concerns and design an effective, sustainable way forward! By taking this step, community members can become more aware of what sustainability means and how they can further improve the place they call home – a community, a watershed or coastal area, and/or a region. Then we can assist you in solving any problems or meeting any challenges your organization or community faces in defining a sustainable future.

Arrange to do your Community Sustainability Assessment today!
