Educating for a Sustainable Future
Brian Gibson
What if education could heal the planet, restore equity, and reimagine what it means to be human?
In Educating for a Sustainable Future, Brian Gibson invites readers to embark on a bold intellectual and moral journey—one that redefines learning in the age of climate crisis, social inequality, and economic uncertainty. With clarity, compassion, and vision, Gibson challenges the limitations of capitalist models that have shaped our schools, societies, and sense of purpose.
Drawing on critical pedagogy, ecological philosophy, and contemporary ethics, this book examines how education can become a transformative force, cultivating empathy, creativity, and sustainability in every learner. It proposes a radical rethinking of how we teach, what we value, and why we learn.
Through thought-provoking analysis and inspiring real-world examples, Gibson shows that true education is not about competing for success, but about co-creating a just, sustainable, and flourishing world.
Inside you’ll discover:
Educating for a Sustainable Future is a powerful call to educators, policymakers, and global citizens who believe that a better world begins in the classroom—and that learning itself must evolve if humanity is to thrive.
