  6. “One of the myths I want to dispel about sustainability is that we can't afford it.  That's not only wrong, it's dead wrong.  We can't afford not to do it.  One of the factors that drove us to sustainability was economics - having to do more with fewer resources.  Some up-front investment may be required, but in the long term, it will reduce our operational costs.” Mr. Tad Davis DASA-ESOH Jan 06
