Gathers knowledge on best-practice teaching for engineers, with the aim of giving engineering students a grounding in the challenge that sustainable development poses to the profession, the contribution the engineer can make to sustainability, and the barriers engineers need to confront in their professional lives.
It is crucial that engineers from students to those already practicing have a deep understanding of the environmental threats facing the world, if they are to become part of the solution and not the problem. Is there a way to reconcile modern lifestyles with the compelling need for change? Could new improved technologies play a key role? If great leaps in the environmental efficiency of technologies are needed, can they be produced? Engineers are in a privileged and hugely influential position to innovate, design and build a sustainable future. But are they engaged or uninterested? Are they knowledgeable or ignorant?
