Abstract/Contents:"We all wonder 'What is sustainable?' The fact we ask the question suggests our doubts. When I look at what I have to do simply to keep grass alive on my greens, it's obvious this golf course is not a sustainable system on its own. Beyond the golf course, I see parallels to this problem throughout the world I live in. The environment, our homes, our work, our families; each suffers a lack of heart we perceive as that nagging question: 'What is sustainable?' It all adds up to a frightening answer: 'This isn't.'" Explores the author's questioning of the society we live in and the expectations which are placed on golf course superintendents.
