 Unsustainable: cannot be continued indefinitely (example: fossil fuels)
 3 requirements for sustainability in ecosystems:
1.Nutrient availability (nutrient recycling)
2.Detoxification of waste products
3. Energy availability (cannot be recycled so a  continued supply of energy must be available usually via the Sun)
