Welcome to the VIVE BLOG: A Guide to Sustainable living! This blog was created to help define what Sustainability and what living a truly Sustainable Lifestyle means. The terms Green, Eco-friendly, Sustainable and other related terms have been jarred into mainstream culture and media as a one-dimensional force to help our environment and globe as a whole. Although this new level of awareness has given rise to a consortium of new products, technologies, and ideas, it remains to be just that, -one dimensional and fundamentally ineffective and consequently NOT Sustainable.
True Sustainability in relation to our daily lives must be redefined as a 3 dimensional term. True Sustainability in its entirety MUST be Economical, Social, and Environmental. In Lamens terms as a society, True Sustainability must be both affordable and profitable (economics), must be incorporated as a conscious daily effort into our lifestyle (social), and beneficial to the environment in a complete 360-degree cycle (environmental). Without all 3 components it would be impossible to attain True Sustainability. With that said and with the help of this blog and Vive Designhaus’ Sustainable Lifestyle Branding (SLB), we hope to assist in redirecting the positive intentions of our community to living a more cooperative and successful Truly Sustainable Lifestyle.
