Topic: Understanding Sustainability
Clayton & Radcliffe (2018) discussed the ways in which a systems theory approach is a useful method of understanding sustainability.
In at least 200 words identify one sustainability challenge in your community and take a systems approach to describe the issues that contribute (good and bad) to the challenge.
Compare the sustainability challenge identified by your peers with your own. Discuss the similarities and differences in the challenges and contributing factors identified by your peers with your own.
