Sustainability in Materials

Sustainability in materials means choosing and using materials in ways that are environmentally responsible, socially fair, and economically viable over the long term. It involves sourcing resources efficiently, minimizing waste and pollution, and ensuring that materials can be replenished or recycled instead of depleting natural ecosystems. The goal is to meet current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs, promoting a balanced relationship between human activity and the planet’s health.
