Sustainability in the Classroom and Beyond – Engage the Whole School!
‘Unsustainability’ is the current default for a lot of institutions and lifestyles – how can we turn that around and make ‘sustainability’ the norm? A lot of progress happens in the classroom, and recently, the United Nations and the European Commission identified the whole-school approach as a good way of imparting sustainability to pupils.
