I have no idea what this article is meant to refer to. It is entitled "National Strategy for a Sustainable America," (NSSA) which in theory would refer to a strategy or campaign by this name. The first sentence describes it as "National Strategy for Sustainability" as implemented in the United States. It also refers to a "President's Council on Sustainable Development" in the 1990s and to a "Director of Sustainable Development" that existed as of 2010, but does not assert that either of these entities are related to the NSSA or that the NSSA ever existed by that name. There is one outside source, the Citizens Network for Sustainable Development (CitNet), whose web site is out of service and whose provenance and notability are neither known nor asserted in the article. CitNet is mentioned in paragraphs 2 and 3, the second of which discusses a Change.org petition that was supposedly popular but has no reported media coverage. Paragraph 4 is an unfulfilled offer by an unnamed person to post more details on this page. Paragraph 5 mentions two other sustainability efforts not necessarily related to the NSSA. In total, I come away from this article utterly confused about what, if anything, the NSSA is and even whether it ever existed. This page reads like speculation and original research instead of an encyclopedic and factual article. White 720 (talk) 03:18, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article is a piece of advocacy in support of a campaign to get US governments to establish a thing that, in fact, they never established. The initiatives of various administrations in the field of sustainability, as outlined in the first couple of paragraphs, may be notable, but this subject can’t be, as it relates to a thing that was never even a coherent but undelivered plan.
