The concept of sustainability ceased to be a term reserved for activists, keynote conferences and summits on climate change. It is an issue that has been normalized in the work environment, in families and in schools; however, much remains to be done.

We all ask ourselves: How can I help the planet? How can I be more sustainable? What can I do?

Fortunately, there are many ways to contribute that are simple. The real challenge is to change our habits until small actions such as separating garbage and using less water become automated tasks. If we start with our own surroundings, we will contribute to creating a society with a consolidated sustainable culture.

“Sustainability is the ability of a society to make conscious and responsible use of its resources, without depleting them or exceeding their capacity for renewal, and without compromising access to them by future generations.”
