Sustainability education is the activity of educating, teaching, training, and imparting knowledge, ideas, and skills about concepts of sustainability to enable the management of global natural, physical, and social resources to meet the needs of present generations without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Achieving a sustainable society relies on an environment, economy, and social systems that can be maintained in a healthy state indefinitely, which involves addressing human management of the environment, social justice and economic equity.
