    Extractions: SUSTAINABILITY What by Brian Kermath References Links Although the essential conceptual elements of the "sustainability" idea have been around for a long time, the term in its present context did not become a significant item of academic discourse across a range of disciplines until the 1980s following a few seminal publications, and it did not become popularized until a decade later after the release of Our Common Future by the WCED in 1987. Since then, a veritable flood of publications has defined, redefined, and scrutinized the idea and applied it to most human endeavors. Although its charge is undeniably needed for forging a quality and durable future a nd comes with nearly universal appeal, some commentators have argued that sustainability is conceptually too vague to have much practical value. Others have suggested that the idea became so diluted and misapplied as to be meaningless in most forums.
