During 2009, the Army framed four tenets of sustainability-- materiel, readiness, human capital and services and infrastructure--that will serve as a road map to relate ongoing and new sustainability efforts moving forward.

The report aggregates this information in a single, comprehensive report of relevant Army activities and achievements, as well as progress with Global Reporting Initiative and other sustainability indicators.
