There has been a recent proliferation in the number of undergraduate and graduate programs in sustainability-related areas, but the number of textbooks that can serve these new curricula is extremely limited. Sustainable Solutions: Problems for Solving Future Generations fills that void by offering a problem-solving and solutions-based approach to teaching sustainability. The book is ideal for undergraduates and entering graduate students from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds that have had some exposure to environmental issues, who are now ready to access this content within an analytical and solutions-based context.
