that a sustainable society is one that can maintain an adequate or
better level of economic activity indefinitely, without
undermining either the ecological or social systems upon which the
society is dependent, and whose political system retains the full
confidence of the citizenry.

History |
The Center for Land Use Education was established in July 2000. It
is a joint venture of the
College of Natural Resources
at the University of
Wisconsin - Stevens Point and
Cooperative Extension
in collaboration with
UW System institutions. It is a focal point for land use
planning and management education.
The Center was
established in response to advice of College advisors and the effects of
increasing population and patterns of development at odds with sound
land and resource management principles. Because the quantity and
quality of our natural resources are largely determined by the impacts
of human activities on the landscape, the Center was seen as a way to
provide administrative focus and programming coordination for land use
education.
