Abstract/Contents: | Discusses sustainability in golf courses, suggesting that more attention needs to be focused on it. Explains that "sustainability is not just about the environment but includes economic and social values as well." Presents the viewpoint that "the golf course industry has done little to improve the state of the world, or even their communities in regard to sustainability issues." Addresses that there are billions of people without access to clean water and sanitation services, millions dying from waterborne diseases, many declining ecosystems resulting in an increase in species extinction, and that promoting sustainability could reverse many of these effects. Provides suggested points that are potentially important to the overall effort of increasing sustainability. |
