defining... Sustainability

This is one of the most important activities that we have done in the ESS class:
to define a term have never been such funny, dynamic, holistic and accurate as it was in the classroom:

First of all, we need to do a brief brainstorming to give ideas of what does sustainability means for everyone;

After that, magic began: using a flash based software named Wordle (www.wordle.net)  (things that just Mendez and God can find in my opinion), the following was created:

And this is what is called a cloud: it represents the more repeated words in larger font size so we can have a "visual idea" of what does the brainstorm was about:

With this cloud, is easy to define sustainability taking the more highlighted words as:

The ability of maintain the balance between the environmental system and our activities in order to have the less possible impact,  taking in account our needs, the resources of the ecosystem and the future generations.

A VVV: very visual and valid interpretation just emerge.
