Abstract
The discourse of sustainability has proven extremely pervasive. Arguably, the language and concept of sustainability has been entrenched in most domains of human understanding and endeavour. The languages of science, economics and politics are replete with the notion of sustainability, or, more specifically,'sustainable development: Much fierce contemporary debate surrounds sustainability, most notably issues concerning climate change, its origins and potential consequences, and the need for appropriate human responses to these. It is a truism that sustainability is a complex and contested issue.
