It is the process of enhancing the quality of life in a community between two points of time in a manner that can be maintained in perpetuity.  To be sustainable, the community must:

• not import resources or export wastes to meet needs; this provides resilience when critical resources become unavailable due to actions out of the control of the community.

• have active co-management relationships (beyond vendor/buyer) with those communities that have resources that are not sufficiently available within your own community, to ensure that the critical resources you require are adequately managed.

• have an ecological footprint smaller than the biocapacity of the landmass managed by the community, so that there is enough biocapacity for everyone.

• work to ensure that all of the needs of all of the people can be met in not more than 24 hour per day per person.  They don’t need all be met, only that it isn't impossible that they can be met.

• set aside a portion of the landmass managed by the community as ‘wilderness’, and be neither a sink for wastes nor source for resources to ensure that a gap in understanding about the ecosystem doesn't immediately cause a collapse.
