Abstract :
After three years of investigation, listening and learning, the President´s Council on Sustainable Development (PCSD) reached unanimous agreement and delivered its report to President Clinton in March, 1996. The 186-page document-a mixture of fundamental beliefs, goals, as well as scores of recommendations and implementation actions-is designed define sustainability and guide the nation toward achieving it. The recommendations are directed toward government, industry, citizen groups and individuals. The report calls for wide-ranging action that would fundamentally alter the way problems are solved in the United States
