At Eco Sustainable Homes we strive to achieve Paul Hawken’s definition of sustainability:

Sustainability is attained when “the demands placed upon the environment by people and commerce can be met without reducing the capacity of the environment to provide for future generations. Leave the world better than you found it; take no more than you need, try not to harm life or the environment, make amends if you do.”

Or as one young person says:

“Sustainability is not just cleaning up your own room – it’s about keeping tidy an even bigger room that belongs to everyone!”

A sustainably designed home works with the environment.
