Is "sustainability" really the worst example of official jargon? The Centre for Policy Studies has published its 2009 lexicon of "contemporary newspeak" (ie irritating jargon) and it seems to have identified "sustainability" as the worst offender.

Good article, and I agree with the author, Mr. Sparrow. But then, the Centre for Policy Studies is British, and maybe what they consider bad jargon is not the same as what we Americans consider bad jargon?
