Sustainability at Seattle University

“Sustainable Development is a commitment to respect and care for the community of life. It is economic growth that promotes the values of human rights, care for the natural world, and the striving for the common good of the whole earth community, especially the poor and most vulnerable. It involves sustaining the present generation without imposing long-term costs or penalties on future generations.” Regional Sustainable Development: A Plan of Action, Society of Jesus Oregon Province, 2006.
