Often times when speaking of economics, development and sustainability one must have back-up to the proposed argument. Such back-up I speak of is known as an indicator. What are indicators? How are they determined? These are some of the questions I have within this form of economic, developmental or sustainable measurement. I will touch the topic of using single indicators and multiple indicators to help both the people and the administration better understand the procedure and practices of there situation. We will see if a single indicator is too complex to adequately inform all the decisions that need to be made. And most important who (which economist) uses and how do they use these indicators to adjust political and environmental happenings and goals?

-Wouldn't a single indicator be too simple? Either way the issue is important. What's the point of instituting a policy if we don't have a way to judge whether it achieves its desired goals.
Thus, a new aspect has been embarked upon. Making an indicator from scratch and measuring its differences to current indicators and rip them apart, while at the same time applying the indicator and current indicators to H2A works in Watauga/ Avery County.
