Abstract

The survey and case study also reveal the same worrying educational reality. The quality of sustainable development in primary and secondary schools has been significantly reduced with the increase of grade in Beijing, China. The relationship between teachers and students is becoming increasingly tense because of the wrong values, and the moral added value of education is increasingly doubted. Human beings should rethink their own ways of living and learning, and unify green development, green schools, ecological civilization and sustainable development in the overall interests of human beings, and abandon narrow, selfish, greedy and vicious competition from each other. Sustainable development civilization is the latest stage of human civilization, which also originated in the gene of Chinese ancient civilization 5000 years ago. Human beings should achieve tolerance and reconciliation through education for sustainable development as soon as possible. Its success marks the establishment of a new key objective of world education as the quality of sustainable development: the truthfulness, noble, responsibility and hopefulness.

Summary

Introduction

The right choice is to set up the new crucial goal of world education: the quality of sustainable development. Education for sustainable development (ESD) has to be forward-looking, because society is not preparing the new generations for a world human have already experienced but a new world with new requirements, one which none of people have witnessed. The 17 noble goals of Education for Sustainable Development make evident that, [2] even if not in character, but in vision, the world has come to this recognition: that humanity has reached a crucial point in its history, a point where childish greed and selfishness are bound to give way to maturity, responsibility and fairness. In order to achieve sustainability, changes need to be made at the level of both society and the individual. Seeking answers to the following questions is a good start for a discourse on the topic of ESD: a) To build a world that is economically, socially and environmentally prosperous, what characteristics would the individuals build that world needs to acquire?
