Sustainability

Informations about "Sustainability" in news+stories

This refers to the utilisation of a regenerative system in such a way that it retains its essential characteristics and its population can be regenerated naturally without significant human influence. In forestry, for example, this means the principle that no more trees may be felled than can grow back. And in viticulture, for example, it is the use of the large quantities of lightweight glass bottles required. The production of this glass, which is around a third lighter, can save an enormous amount of energy and greatly reduce CO2 emissions. However, it is just as stable and strong as conventional glass.

Ecological sustainability

Ecological sustainability aims to preserve nature and the environment for future generations. This includes the preservation and promotion of biodiversity (variety of species), climate protection, the maintenance of cultural and landscape areas in their original form and the careful and environmentally friendly use of the natural environment. Ideally, sustainability should relate to ecological, economic and social aspects. This is also an important contribution in the fight against the negative effects of climate change.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
