The crisis of sustainability, the fit between humanity and its habitat, is manifest in varying ways and degrees everywhere on earth. It is not only a permanent feature on the public agenda; for all practical purposes it is the agenda … The content of our curriculum and the process of education, with a few notable exceptions, has not changed … what is apparent … is that we do not worry about what our children and young people learn and how well they learn it until a crisis happens along. The crisis cannot be solved by the same kind of education that helped create the problems (Orr, 1992)
