    PLEASE EXCUSE THE CROSS POSTING -
    Greetings,
    I'll be eternally and collegially grateful for your
    ideas for a text and teaching materials for a course in
    international sustainability in science and technology.
    I'm assembling materials for such a course next Spring.
    The course is a senior level undergraduate course. Most of
    the students would be majors in our science and technology
    program and have a concentration in environmental science.
    I have attached information on the course.
    I've already reviewed Nigel Roome's "Sustainability
    Strategies for Industry" and Jan-Ola Willums' "The
    Sustainable Business Challenge". While I could use
    portions of either book as a text, I am hoping to find
    another source that would deal more comprehensively with my
    course objectives. I would rather have teaching materials
    in that several instructors may be called on to teach the
    course.

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Bruce
