To broaden your understanding of strong sustainability it is useful to read about the component issues (such as climate change, globalisation, etc) and sustainability issues in general. Here are some web sites that we can recommend. |

| An inconvenient truth (documentary film) | www.climatecrisis.net | Is widespread acknowledgement of climate change and its causes taking seed in America? A mainstream movie about climate change certainly begs the question, as does this quote from narrator, Al Gore: "What changed in the US with Hurricane Katrina was a feeling that we have entered a period of consequences." | Climate change | | Center for Ecoliteracy | www.ecoliteracy.org | Read the writings of the centre's board (including Fritjof Capra and David Orr) on their publications page. | Education (ESD) | | Council for Socially Responsible Investment | www.csri.org.nz | | Finance and investment | | Encyclopdia of Earth | www.eoearth.org | Audited and in-depth information about the Earth's environment. | Education (ESD) | | Guardian Environment | www.guardian.co.uk/environment | Environment section of the highly-regarded British newspaper. | News | | National Sustainable Food Summit 2011 - Conference Report | http://www.3pillarsnetwork.com.au/kb/nsfs-conference-report.pdf | Includes ideas that could inform a vision for Australia's food system in 2030; examines the challenges and constraints of the current food system, and explores opportunities for change that would support a transformation to a resilient, adaptable and sustainable food system. You are encouraged to share these materials freely. It is hoped the Report will be used as a catalyst for further discussion and also as a useful input into policy discussions. | Education (ESD) | | Project 2058 | www.2058.net.nz | Sustainable Future project web site The project aims to produce a vision of what a sustainable New Zealand may look like in 2058 and promotes long-term thinking, leadership and capacity-building as well as an overarching strategy to reach this vision. | Scenarios and visioning |

Should we add categories, such as ESD, scenarios, etc?
