The Book
Sense & Sustainability by Ken Webster and Craig Johnson
“Oh my! This is 'must have' have book for educators and business. This book really does set the bench mark for what is to come in ESD and boy is it optimistic in it's message (that's right, you heard me, OPTIMISTIC!)!...” Review from an Eco Schools Coordinator in the UK.
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 elegant frameworks based approach fits exactly ambitions for sustainable schools and colleges; and skilling for a knowledge based, ‘green collar’/ ‘clean-tech’ future. An inspiring and timely book for educators.
