Educating for sustainability is teaching children to meet the needs of the present without compromising the needs of future generations. We must recognize that all living things and natural systems are interdependent, and in turn, put this understanding to use in our lives, our communities, and our planet. This is a world for which we are all responsible, both today and in the future.As teachers, nothing we do is as important as this. We need to foster resilience, encourage creative and critical thinking, and give our children the tools the need to ensure a sustainable future.Everything we do and everything we don't do makes a difference.
