**Need** -- Achieving sustainability requires intervening at deep leverage points, and the leverage points perspective provides a necessary framework for identifying and focusing on them.
**Utility** -- The leverage points perspective offers unique advantages by integrating different modes of understanding change (causality and teleology) and acting as a unifying "boundary object" for diverse actors.
