We need fuel such as gas and oil. But someday the earth's supply of gas and oil will be gone. Sustainability means to ind other fuels that we can reproduce. For instance, we can sustain our woodlands by planting more trees when we cut down some of them. Sustainability in agriculture is to follow good farming practices such as rotating crops and letting fields lie fallow sometimes.
