Sense and Sustainability

The transition to a low carbon economy will be challenging but necessary. This book makes the case for a practical education for sustainability based on exploring and testing frameworks especially the ideas and innovations behind the leading edge of design, business and industry today. Inspired by understanding living systems, this new circular economy is transforming the sense of what a sustainable future might be. Education contributes most to the future of our young people when it opens up discussion on how sustainable can be aspirational: in our view, it needs to be about ‘better and better’ not ‘less and less’. This highly illustrated book also comes with online materials and resources for continuing professional development. An inspiring and timely book for educators.
