Within the
interconnectiveness of environment and society, the economy prosecutes pressures on both in variable manners; this results in responses: change in behavior or 'business as usual'. The CO2 emissions per
capita reflect this paradigmatically, dependent on the cultural region and
its lifestyle.
Objectives have to be set and accomplished in order to
gain sustainability. Economy and education are the
decisive agents. By making use of both, you have to look at the underlying
dimensions of the challenges with a new perspective and with integrative
thinking. This is necessary in order to follow the principles of
sustainability and to accept responsibility for things which are far ahead and
away (time and space).
And education, after being reformed
to 'Education for a Sustainable Future' must provide the TOOLS (key
qualifications) by which you may counterbalance the three dimensions, being
opposed in an cube of tension. Moreover this approach will enable economy to
gain global competitiveness. But to do this kind of counterbalancing
successfully you need two suppositions:
* Decision-making structures have
to be revealed
* Decisions must be oriented
towards responsibility and be based on values.
