Major revisions in the Web site of Five Es Unlimited at http://www.eeeee.net have been made. By book-marking this site, readers will find a "virtual library" at their fingertips on the many elements of sustainable development. The site offers hundreds of searchable resources to help communities, businesses, educators, researchers, policy makers, environmental managers, legislators, and households make better decisions. As the testimonials demonstrate, this site also serves as an excellent electronic reference in high school and college classrooms where students are encouraged to learn how science, society and economics, as well as ethics and morality, influence our multi-dimensional lives.

The information pages include discussion of issues such as population, climate, energy, natural resource use, coastal planning and management, human-nature linkages, biodiversity, watershed protection, technology, sustainable agriculture, safe water supplies, waste management, community development, transportation, green building, economic revitalization, consumerism, sustainable cities, international security, politics, smart rural development, education, family relations and human values, among others.

Individual actions of people, from every walk of life and from every means, are the things that will either advance global sustainable development or stop it in its tracks. Bringing awareness and understanding to people who can make the right choices in their lives, while motivating governments in ways that will positively affect the future, is the key. Part of the Five Es Web site's purpose is to offer the public service of circulating and promoting the most current ideas, tools, and success stories involving people, places and organizations attempting to achieve sustainability.
