Sustainability Topics

The National Academies have established a Science and Technology for Sustainability Program (STS) to encourage the use of science and technology to achieve long term sustainable development - increasing incomes, improving public health, and sustaining critical natural systems.

This database provides an overview of sustainability activities, both in the STS program and throughout the other boards and committees of the National Academies. The database is organized by major topical area. Click on any of the Topics to see lists of related reports, upcoming meetings, and ongoing activities.
