Sustainability saying

"We do not inherit this land from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children."
- Haida Indian saying.

The quoted saying above perfectly explains the concept of sustainability. It means taking into account the future. Because everything we do at the present time would greatly affect the future generations, our children. Especially now that the world is experiencing manifestations of the mistakes made by the past generations through global warming, food shortage, and other negative impacts. We need to start being responsible about our actions, specifically in our consumption of our scarce natural resources.
