This book investigates how educators and researchers in the sciences, social sciences, and the arts, connect concepts of sustainability to work in their fields of study and in the classrooms where they teach the next generation. Sustainability, with a focus on justice, authenticity and inclusivity, can be integrated into many different courses or disciplines even if it is beyond their historical focus. The narratives describe sustainability education in the classroom, the laboratory, and the field (broadly defined) and how the authors navigate the complexities of particular sustainability issues, such as climate change, water quality, soil health, biodiversity, resource use, and education in authentic ways that convey their complexity, the sociopolitical context, and their hopes for the future. The chapters explore how faculty engage students in learning about sustainability and the ways in which working at the edge of what we know about sustainability can be a significant source ofengagement, motivation, and challenge. The authors discuss how they create learning experiences that foster democratic practices in which students are not just following protocols, but have a stake in creative decision-making, collecting and analysing data, and posing authentic questions. They also describe what happens when students are not just passively receiving information, but actively analysing, debating, dialoguing, arguing from evidence, and constructing nuanced understandings of complex socioscientific sustainability issues. The narratives include undergraduate student perspectives on what it means to engage in sustainability research and learning, how students navigate the complexities and contradictions inherent in sustainability issues, what makes for authentic, empowering learning experiences, and how students are encouraged to persevere in the field.
This is an open access book.

Acerca del autor
Stephanie Pfirman is a Foundation Professor at the School of Sustainability and a Senior Sustainability Scientist at the Julie Ann Wrigley Global Institute of Sustainability and Innovation at Arizona State University. Before joining ASU in 2018, Pfirman was Hirschorn Professor of Environmental and Applied Sciences and co-Chair of the Department of Environmental Science at Barnard College. She held a joint appointment with Columbia University’s Earth Institute and the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences as an Adjunct Research Scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. Pfirman focuses on understanding and responding to the changing Arctic, developing innovative approaches to formal and informal education, and exploring the intersection between diversity and interdisciplinarity. Pfirman’s Arctic research addresses implications of changes in sea ice origin, drift, and melt patterns, including defining the Last Ice Area, recently established as a protected area by Canada. She is an elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. As a former co-PI of a National Science Foundation Advancing Women in the Sciences (ADVANCE) grant, past President of the Council of Environmental Deans and Directors, and Chair of the Columbia Earth Institute's Faculty Development Committee, Pfirman has helped to understand and foster the career trajectories of women and interdisciplinary scholars. Pfirman co-designed EcoChains: Arctic Life, a card-game that earned a Parent’s Choice award. A longtime advocate for action on climate change, as a senior scientist at the Environmental Defense Fund, Pfirman co-developed one of the first climate change exhibitions, "Global Warming: Understanding the Forecast," produced jointly with the American Museum of Natural History.
Hilary S. Callahan, an Ann Whitney Olin Professor of Biology, joined the faculty at Barnard College in 1999 and today serves as department chair and directs the Arthur Ross Greenhouse; she is also an affiliate of Columbia University's Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Environmental Biology. She learned her early love for nature from knowledgeable relatives, and gained her identity as a botanist and activist during her undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral years in New Haven, Connecticut, Madison, Wisconsin, and Knoxville, Tennessee, where she fostered friendships with scholars across disciplines and with labor activists, grassroots conservationists, community journalists, and progressive politicians. Today, she resides in The Bronx. She has received multiple National Science Foundation funding awards for her research projects and mentoring of experiences in STEM research for undergraduates, including UNPAK: Undergraduates Phenotyping Arabidopsis Knockouts, described in this volume. Her writings in plant ecological genetics focus on plant responses to environmental change. As part of the Barnard Teaches digital initiative, she created an interdisciplinary course in botany and its history in collaboration with the New York Botanical Garden and the Columbia Center for Science and Society. Over the years, she has contributed to the Barnard Noyce Teacher Scholar Program (BNTSP), founded Barnard's Beckman Scholars Program, and served on many sustainability committees and working groups. Since 2018 she has served as President of the Board of Directors of Black Rock Forest in Cornwall, New York.

Derecho al desistimiento
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
