Sustainability In Action
“Whatever is right, do it with unwavering determination, and see it through to the end.” (Jing Si Aphorisms by Master Zheng Yen) — This guiding principle inspires our commitment to sustainable practices at TMC, motivating us to act with purpose and persistence in every endeavor. We focus on two of the three core pillars of sustainability: environmental sustainability, by protecting and preserving the natural world, and social sustainability, by fostering fairness, inclusivity, and equity within our community.
Sustainability means meeting the needs of today without harming the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It includes social, economic, and environmental aspects. Social sustainability is about making sure everyone has equal access to resources and opportunities. Economic sustainability promotes fair and long-term economic growth, while environmental sustainability focuses on protecting and preserving the natural environment. All these parts make up sustainability, which is all about prioritizing long-term well-being over short-term gains.
At our center, we believe that focusing on social and environmental sustainability from a young age is crucial for building a better future. Social sustainability ensures that every child feels included, valued, and has equal opportunities to thrive. It involves teaching children about fairness, community, and helping others, which fosters a strong sense of belonging and responsibility.
Environmental sustainability is about teaching children to respect and care for the planet. From an early age, children learn the importance of conserving resources, reducing waste, and protecting nature. By instilling these values early, we hope to raise a generation that is mindful of their impact on the environment and committed to making positive changes.
By focusing on these two pillars of sustainability, we aim to nurture compassionate, responsible, and environmentally conscious individuals who will contribute to a healthier and more equitable world.
