Empowering Teachers through Environmental and Sustainability Education : Meaningful Change in Educational Settings
Empowering Teachers through Environmental and Sustainability Education draws inspiration from an empirical study exploring early career teachers’ attempts at enacting Environmental and Sustainability Education (ESE) in their everyday teaching practices.It showcases how a confluence of personal, professional and environmental identities supports implementation of ESE.Additionally, this book discusses key concepts and issues surrounding ESE and the ways in which teachers may claim agency and power to create change in their classroom practices.Drawing from theoretical perspectives, such as Bourdieu’s ‘thinking tools’ habitus and capital, theories of identity, and Foucault’s concept of power and knowledge relations, this book explores how teachers negotiate policies, curriculum and institutional norms to further theoretical and practical understanding of ESE.The use of personal narratives offers new insights into teachers’ agency in creating localised yet powerful change through small and meaningful actions.The purpose of this book, therefore, is to explore ways in which meaningful change can be made in educational settings through these small agentive and yet empowering steps.This book reveals that teachers can enact agency and navigate the power structures that exist within educational settings in order to make ESE meaningful within their classrooms.

Can one distinguish recycling from downcycling and upcycling?
Yes, one can distinguish recycling from downcycling and upcycling. Recycling involves processing used materials into new products of the same or similar quality, while downcycling involves converting materials into products of lower quality. Upcycling, on the other hand, involves creating new products of higher quality or value from used materials. Each of these processes has different environmental and economic impacts, with upcycling generally being the most sustainable option.

Can one distinguish between recycling, downcycling, and upcycling?
Yes, one can distinguish between recycling, downcycling, and upcycling. Recycling involves breaking down materials to create new products of equal or lesser quality. Downcycling refers to the process of turning materials into products of lower quality. Upcycling, on the other hand, involves transforming waste materials into products of higher value or quality. Each process plays a different role in the circular economy and sustainability efforts.

Does waste reduction go beyond waste recycling?
Yes, waste reduction goes beyond waste recycling. While recycling is an important part of waste management, waste reduction focuses on minimizing the amount of waste produced in the first place. This can be achieved through practices such as reducing packaging, reusing items, and implementing more sustainable production processes. By focusing on waste reduction, we can decrease the overall environmental impact of waste and move towards a more circular and sustainable economy.

What is waste separation and recycling?
Waste separation is the process of sorting different types of waste materials into separate categories such as paper, plastic, glass, and organic waste. Recycling involves taking these separated materials and processing them to create new products, reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. By separating waste and recycling, we can help conserve natural resources, reduce pollution, and minimize the impact of waste on the environment.

Stress Management in Work Settings
The contributors to this volume address current issues and problems in the field of stress management and provide guidance toward the development, implementation, evaluation, and maintenance of stress management programs in work settings.The authors' aim is to shift the present mind set of brief stress workshops toward more comprehensive actions which target both the organization and the individual worker as intervention points for stress reduction.Collectively labeled as stress management, methods such as muscle relaxation, meditation, biofeedback, and cognitive strategies have been taught to workers as a means of reducing psycho-physiological and subjective distress.These preventative strategies have focused exclusively on the healthy individual worker.As presently defined, stress management has a negligible role in reducing organizational stress.The authors suggest that a more appropriate application would be a complement to job redesign or organizational change intervention.They also argue that conceptual issues are as important as logistical ones in determining program success. The book is divided into three parts. Part I deals with organizational stress and its assessment.Part II describes aspects of stress management as applied in work settings, and the third part is a collection of resources for training materials, products, and equipment.Stress Management in Work Settings is a professional book aimed at the users who will ultimately make the decision to offer a stress reduction program, decide what type of action will be taken, and actually implement the action.

'Which settings?'
The settings refer to the environment or location in which a story takes place. This can include physical locations such as a city, a forest, or a school, as well as more abstract settings like a dystopian society or a magical realm. Settings play a crucial role in shaping the mood, atmosphere, and overall tone of a story, and can also influence the actions and interactions of the characters within that setting.

What are proxy settings?
Proxy settings are configurations that allow a device to connect to the internet through a proxy server instead of directly connecting to websites. This can help improve security, privacy, and network performance by acting as an intermediary between the device and the internet. Proxy settings can be manually configured on devices to route internet traffic through a specific proxy server, which can also be used to bypass geo-restrictions or access blocked websites.

Are there better settings?
The concept of "better" settings is subjective and depends on individual preferences and needs. Some people may prefer urban settings with access to amenities and cultural activities, while others may prefer rural settings with natural beauty and tranquility. It ultimately comes down to what each person values and desires in their living environment. It's important to consider factors such as cost of living, job opportunities, access to healthcare and education, and overall quality of life when determining the "better" setting for oneself.
