One Definition of Sustainability
“Sustainable development involves… meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”Brundtland Report, United Nations, 1987
![Page 6: SUSTAINABLE AFFORDABLE HOUSING William Weber weber064@umn](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568149e8550346895db710ad/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
According to the American Institute of Architects Handbook,
“…sustainability refers to the ability of a society, ecosystem, or any such ongoing system to continue functioning into the indefinite future…. For architecture, this means design that delivers buildings and communities with lower environmental impacts while enhancing health, productivity,
community, and quality of life.”

Impact of Buildings on People and the Natural Environment• Buildings use one-sixth to one-half of the world's wood, minerals, water, and energy. Buildings generate 40% of the waste going to land fills.
• Blame for much of the environmental damage occurring today, from destruction of forests and rivers to air and water pollution and climate destabilization, must be placed on modern buildings.
• Many buildings do harm on the inside as well making us both less healthy and less productive than we are capable of being: 30% of the commercial buildings constructed since the 1960’s are unhealthy.

Challenges forSustainable Affordable Housing• Meeting Multiple Criteria
– ecology, economics, equity
• Seeing Whole System Interconnections
• Recognizing the impact of design
• Examine the whole cost of housing– Mortgage/rent, utilities, and maintenance
• Health Impacts of Housing
• Finding Reliable Information and Developing a Knowledge Base
