6. Conclusion
“It is easy to be the person you have always been for it requires no change, no self-reflection and no growth. It may appear that changing yourself requires giving up something. In reality, there is no need to give up anything. You simply add to what has always been” [32]. All of us have the power to learn how to live sustainable lifestyles; nonetheless, the readiness to change seals our destiny or fate. To the CEO, sustainability is marketing and branding strategy, to the students, it is the new research field that promises a bright future and career, to the homemaker, it is a way of reducing household expenditure, to the national government, it is a reminder of its responsibility and duties to ensure continuity. However, it is much more than we previously thought. Today the world is experiencing a green reawakening; making environmental conscious decisions the new normal. Public and private institutions have put in place regulations and projects that promote a balance between consumption and natural resources. Civil society and eco lovers have been at the forefront of green activism and advocacy. Studies however reveal that awareness of environmental degradation does not necessary amount into the required behavioural change. At the work place, employee green initiatives are no more than mechanic at a certain level. It has been reiterated that the quality and the decisions of management act as a campus on how well or poorly the firm may perform. Organizational eco sustainability policies reinforced through the firm’s environmental protection strategies and corporate social responsibility supplemented by either green workmanship or pro individual environmental choices could be further locked in as the new eco-socio-culture of modern firms by using Industrial Organizational Psychology coupled with strategic human resource and environmental management principles through designing a green education system. It applies, borrows and learns from the current everyday systems of things for instance sports, entertainment, self-made billionaire industries, the role of creative play and imagination, homemakers and spirituality among others. Knowledge and education can remain relevant if it is reinterpreted, modified and qualified to mirror the current environmental changes within society.
