How do we educate the next generation on sustainability? How do we help them think of themselves as citizens of ‘one world’? What are their – and our – responsibilities as future responsible leaders?
Dr Jose Alcaraz-Barriga, from Lancaster University Leipzig, tell us how he teaches his students to connect business activities with the planet’s future.
Jose takes his own knowledge on planetary boundaries and the Anthropocene and applies it in his teaching to ensure young people are not overwhelmed by the situation but also understand how action at a local level can make a real impact.
We learn how filmmaking can become a valuable medium for students to learn sustainability lessons in a personal way. We discuss the importance of imagination, and of connecting with people from different walks of life to gain new perspectives. And we wonder how we ended up talking about Elon Musk.
