Abstract

Education for sustainability has attempted to extend the range of concerns teachers and students are meant to address from the environmental into the social and economic. But this has brought with it aspects of an anti-industrial sentiment and an essentially defensive, issues-focused agenda aimed at the individual. It has weakened the role of understanding and applying the insights offered by natural systems which probably represents the best chance of framing an education for sustainability as comprehensible, aspirational and purposeful.
