Abstract
Empowering for change: Sustainability education equips individuals with the skills to navigate a changing world, understand complex systems, and continuously learn. Teachers can effectively integrate sustainability through project-based learning, incorporating relevant topics, and using real-world examples. This study explores green careers and strategies to promote them, recommending low-cost implementation through Carroll's model and leadership for engagement. By fostering critical thinking and problem-solving through practical learning and community involvement, educators can prepare students for the green economy. While the sustainability sector offers opportunities, challenges like economic downturns and lack of skilled professionals persist. Misleading environmental claims further discourage qualified individuals. Despite these hurdles, integrating sustainability education into current curriculums remains essential.
