In short

Just enough theory to use it

Sustainability debates are perfect for the aim about analysing current issues: they are global, contested and full of weak arguments to expose. Framework: the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the three dimensions (environmental, social, economic). Cases from the English-speaking world: poverty in the UK and US, climate consequences hitting hardest where emissions are lowest (climate justice), and fast fashion's global supply chain. Strong answers connect the local shopping bag to the global system – and know the difference between individual and systemic responsibility.
