Sustainability in Project Mangement

Here is my article from our Project Management presentations.
Ultimately, the authors try to determine what sustainability is and how it can be applied to project management. Because project management stretches across various industries, sustainability is interpreted in various ways.  Interviews were conducted with four different employees at four different businesses and discussed what sustainability is, what roles it plays in his/her business and their application of sustainability to their work.  The findings of such can be viewed within the articles' tables.  The authors conclude with feeling sustainability's application is highly immature, of which I attribute to the fact that sustainability is a highly misunderstood and relatively new concept, just as project management is.  There will be a natural evolution as we adapt our businesses to a more ecologically accountable mindset.
