Collapse ▲What is Sustainability?
The concept of sustainability is based on the fact that everything humans need to survive is based either directly or indirectly on our natural environment. Sustainability looks to the future and asks; how do we fulfill our needs now and ensure that the needs of our children and grandchildren will be met?
If you are interested to learn how you can make a difference, the NC State Extension will host a Backyard Sustainability Series this spring. These classes will help Cape Fear area residents learn skills to live in harmony with their natural environment and help to preserve our natural resources for future generations to enjoy.
This is a free, online, 8-week course. Participants must register for the entire class series.
- Classes are held each Wednesday from 6:30–7:45 p.m. via Zoom.
- After registering, participants will receive an email with the Zoom link and password prior to each class.
