Sustainable Utilities

If we parse the title of this paper we end up with two words that may or may not be related. “Sustainable,” in the context used here means “…relating to, or being a method of harvesting or using a resource so that the resource is not depleted or permanently damaged.” A utility (again, in this context) means “A commodity or service, such as electricity, water, or public transportation that is provided by a public utility.”
Given the above definitions, I would say that a sustainable utility provides a commodity or service using methods so that resources are not depleted or permanently damaged.
