Principles for a SustainableFuture
16
Vanishing Responsibility
SFI Sustainable Future Instructions
17
Vanishing Responsibility
SFI Sustainable Future Instructions
There is a decoupling of natural processes and
human impacts and effects.
A spatial and temporal separation of those who
cause the effects and those who are affected by
these.
The relationship between individual acting and
its subsequent effects cannot be experienced any
longer directly, whereby responsibility fades
away.
18
Which are the criteria for ESF in Decision-Making
Products?
ACTIVE RESPONSIBILITY TOWARDS REGIONAL AND GLOBAL
ISSUES
CHALLENGE TO STRIVE FOR SOLIDARITY NOW AND IN
THE FUTURE
READINESS TO COMMUNICATE WITH PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT
CULTURES
EVOKE AWARENESS ON BEING DEPENDENT ON 'NEW
THINKING'

Economic pressure Continuous demand for property
in the CBD. Face-to-Face business.
Decentralisation of services by making use of
high-speed-systems (train). Improving living
conditions in the inner city. And loop
roadsshould be merged with green axis
Results of densely populated areas - Heaps of
waste and noise - Missing social consensus
HOUSING
Political imperative City planning for a
Sustainable Future Objectives A livable and
sustainable city Mixture of housing (30) and
services(70). Knowledge industrycould be partly
moved into the vicinity. Appropriate measures
should be taken to avoid urban sprawl and/or the
doughnut phenomenon
Mega-Cities (Growing Cities) Structural change
of economic sectors towards services, cities as
centers of services will grow but followed by
further crises. In order to cope with these
issues additional resources must be allocated -
due to inborn genetic deficiencies of mega
cities.
The inner city will lose residents, therefore
increase of offices vs. decrease of housing.
Suburbs will grow - more noise and air
pollution caused by urban traffic since there
will be more commuters.
INNER CITIES
Agriculture in Highly Advanced Economies Export
of wheat to reduce a negative balance of trade,
e.g. U.S.A.
Export of fertile topsoils, decrease of genetic
variety in the USA and Toast instead of
Tortillas in Mexico

DESDGerman-Japanese Cooperation
DESD-Project Educators of Germany and Japan will
work together, following UNESCOs framework of
the Decade of Education for Sustainable
Development 2005 -2014, initiated by the Japanese
Government in Johannesburg, (WSSD, 2002)The
Germany-Year in Japan 2005/2006 is an
additional opportunity to start a viable
cooperation among German and Japanese teachers
and students to find strategies of how to
implement the principle of Sustainability in
education.In order to cope with global changes
(syndromes) and the disadvantages of
globalization everyone has to accept and practice
responsibility.Germany and Japan face various
economic, environmental and social problems (e.g.
demographic ones) which are alike, therefore
cooperating may be worthwhile. The most promising
strategy in doing so will be based on Education
for a Sustainable Future. Dieter Gross,
