Summary/Abstract: In this paper is intended to achieve a classification of resources according to their sustainability. Every resource is classified according to the scarcity and the place where they are. The concept of sustainability is then examined critically and described in its constituent parts in order that each resource can be analysed in terms of its contribution to each element of sustainability. The total contribution - or impact – of each resource to sustainability is depicted in a sustainability classification wich differs in several respects from conventional theory and provides a basis for practical policy-making.
