Sustainable Lifestyles
The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing
Sustainable Lifestyles are considered as ways of living, social behavior and choices that minimize environmental degradation (use of natural resources, CO2 emissions, waste and pollution) while supporting equitable socio-economic development and better quality of life for all.

They involve a number of daily actions and happenings in our lives, so many that we need to be constantly reminded of them. The GPS Foundation is considering it as its main function to do this and support its data with widely accepted findings or scientific statements.
