What is the definition of a sustainable process?

A sustainable process is taking a course of action that reduces an existing carbon footprint or reduce greenhouse gas emissions. When trying to alter a process into a sustainable state it requires a course of action that is extensive and tedious. To properly sustain and environmental issue takes strategic planning and execution. A sustainable process is necessary when attacking an issue because you have to observe an immediate solution and long term solutions. If the process is successful each component will work in harmony.
