INTRODUCTION
Sustainability and ecology program termed out as to gain scientific understanding of
issues surroundings the protection and rehabiliation of nature at the time of maintaining the
essential or useful ecosystem service. The present report will be based on reading, cocepts,
definations and online learnings. To conduct this study, the four article will be chosen on
sustainability, ecology and communities.
MAIN BODY
Article 1: Environmental justice and sustainability
The present article is based on Environmental sustainability termed out as responsible
interaction with environment by avoiding depletion or degradation in the natural resources.
Henceforth, environment sustainability is highly concerned with environmental resources. In
addition the one of the issues identified in this article is relate with sustainable communities and
challenge of environmental justice (Environmental justice and sustainability, 2019). I have
identified that Environmental justice is the fair distribution of environmental benefits and
pollution burdens with regardless of the wealth, income, status, race or nationality. It is study
that is based on the observation that the poor and disadvantaged are often exposed to
environmental hazards, risks and stresses and the wealthy escape. Also, this article aids to
identified that Environmental injustice is experienced with help of varied highlighted exposure to
pollution in corresponding to health risks, limited access to adequate environmental services and
loss of land and resource rights.
Also, this has been highlighted that Environmental Justice is about real people facing
wide range of problems and to cope up with it they are taking steps towards to designing
practical solutions to address challenging environmental issues. In order to bring better working
and fair dealing within sectors such as government, business there is needed to cope with
environmental justice. With the help of this article, it has been identified that environmental
justice termed out as the cultural norms, value, regulations and behaviour and decision that
provide the better and effective support to sustainability.
Article 2: Advancement in the landscape sustainability science

The present article is based on topic as to cover dramatic socio-economic and
environmental changes that is inclusive of rising population, escalating the resource demand and
shifting land uses , alteration in climate. Therefore, the research has focused on the issues from
this article such as loss of biological diversity, change in land system and change in climate
conditions affects the working in business sectors. In order to bring out the better sustainability
and innovation practices, I recommend to understand that how to design, conserve and manage
landscape to sustainable offering within the ecosystem services and this can also be crucial for
supporting well being of human in present as well future. Therefore, this can be stated that
Implementation of the landscape designs in context with sustainable outcomes requires clear
communication of socio-economic and environmental opportunities. This mainly concerns across
different individuals and social groups. However, this article has out depth insights on outcome
that to build the effective landscape design, the use of geo-design is also gaining popularity in
terms to promoting sustainability outcomes.
Article 3: Contributions to sustainability practices.
The present article is based on topic as to make contribution to sustainability practices.
Henceforth, sustainability can be defined as one of the major concepts that impact the working of
the enterprise in the huge context. In addition to this, article has reviewed that environmental
crisis, set-backs, and political cloudiness, learning provides a bridge for individuals that supports
to achieve sustainability through action at a grass-roots level and beyond (.Contributions to
sustainability practices of faith communities in Canada: the roles of learning, action and faith,
2019). Therefore, this article explored the learning for sustainability that occurs in faith-
communities which can assist in terms to provide a unique platform for considering learning and
sustainability due to their ability to organize, their institutional strengths and weaknesses. This
also aids to bring stability in the role of personal faith in people’s lives. Also, this can be stated
that environmental and economic actions taken by authorities is to do not diminish the
opportunities of future persons in respect to enjoy similar levels of wealth, utility, or welfare.
However, this can be stated that sustainability programs and practices supports to make
contribution to workplace flexibility.

positive attributes in context of two approaches and that aids to offers a multi-generational vision
of community building. This article has reviewed the vision that mainly integrates multiple
societal values and this also enhances local imagination, understanding, and commitment to
defining solutions for the common good. In addition to this, the sustainability Process aids to put
the major emphasizes diversity, openness and consensus. In addition to this, it is fully equipped
with help of offering and this also shared vision in political arenas that is dominated by storage
and conflict (Does Sustainable Development Offer a New Direction for Planning? Challenges for
the Twenty-First Century, 2020). With the help of this article, this has been reviewed that by the
use of creating enabling conditions for inclusive growth assist to bridge economic, social and
environmental gaps for sustainable development. I must recommended that effective
sustainability practices aids to bring out better working conditions.
CONCLUSION
Hereby, it can be concluded that sustainability is termed that called out as an ability of an
ecosystem that supports to maintain ecological processes, functions, biodiversity and
productivity in respect to future. However, the study is based on topic as to reading, cocepts,
definations and online learning towards challenges and concepts of sustainability, ecoligy and
