hemisphere and United States uses the greatest percentage of the world’sresources. If we do not learn to share more equitably what is here to use, we not only are livingin denial, but more importantly, subject ourselves to greater chances of invasion and attacks fromthe outside. Unfortunately, social change is usually difficult and slow. We have reached a pointin history where sustainability is not only a desirable goal of education, but rather is a requisitethat should be on the forefront of curriculum development and educators’ minds. Eco-friendlyapproaches to construction and in general, engineering, are the purview of all global citizens andit is through K-12 education that the need and vision for doing such construction will be taughtand
