However, many of them, promoted by governmental entities, often seems to continue with the operationalization of the definition of sustainability with focus on the overcome of material aspects, which has meant an incessant struggle only “against to the poverty”. Otherwise, if sustainability underlies only the idea of combating poverty, how can we differentiate it from the one that needs to restrict domestic and industrial consumption? This article undertakes a discussion around system of indicators and how they are fundamental to translate sustainability into a territorial diagnosis that reveals an “environmental space”, challenging to rethink priorities that promote optimal decision making at different scales. Cuando la sostenibilidad surgió como el consenso por antonomasia para modificar agendas gubernamentales, se levantaron variadas voces que incentivaban el uso de nuevas métricas para el diagnóstico de territorios. No obstante, gran parte de ellos promovidos por entidades gubernamentales parecen muchas veces continuar con operacionalizar la definición de sostenibilidad con enfoques que se concentran en superar aspectos materiales, lo que ha significado una lucha incesante únicamente “contra la pobreza”. De otra forma, si en la sostenibilidad subyace únicamente la idea de combatir la pobreza, ¿cómo podríamos diferenciarla de aquella que necesita restringir el consumo doméstico e industrial? Este artículo emprende una discusión en torno de los sistemas de indicadores y cómo ellos son fundamentales para traducir la sostenibilidad en un diagnóstico territorial que devele un “espacio ambiental”, desafiando a replantearse prioridades que promuevan la toma de decisiones óptimas a diferentes escalas.
