Sustainability in South Perth

Sustainability is about living and working in ways that meet and integrate existing environmental, economic and social needs without compromising the needs of future generations. Recently, this definition is more often described as an improved quality of life and state of wellbeing for existing and future generations.

The City’s definition of sustainability is ‘Enhancing the quality of life and prosperity of the community, and preventing the harmful local and global effects of its action through careful planning and decision making’.
