Abstract :
While many efforts have been done from companies and governments to acquire sustainability and hence sustainability is an urgent problem to address, the individual efforts have been done more slowly to improve the individual sustainable life. One of the reasons would be the dearth of self-monitoring to what extent one is sustainable, or even what sustainability means to her or him. Individual behavior change is needed to associate communal and governmental strategy with the resident´s life. This paper aims to conceptualize personal level sustainability and propose index model for developing intelligent sustainability caring tools.
