The Round Table is pleased to have participated in the update of this plan. Responding to climate change, maintaining the health of our native species, and reducing our ecological footprint will all be crucial to a sustainable future for South Australia. We congratulate the Government for committing to these important, and ambitious targets. The significant challenge ahead of us now is to take action to meet the targets.

There is growing interest in using community indicators as a way to define and measure society's progress.

For community indicators to be successful and meaningful, the community whose progress is being measured needs to be involved in deciding what the indicators are.  This was behind the extensive community consultation that took place across South Australia in 2006, to update the Plan.
