Practicing sustainability or responsible use of earth's resources is a current focus in development issues, especially using the Community Development method as a platform. This survey observed elements of sustainable community development (SCD) in the South Western States in Nigeria and the extent of its incorporation into community development efforts. This is because any serious development effort that does not incorporate sustainability is not likely to succeed long term.
