1. Sustainability is illusive.

Sustainability is not just about practicing efficient management of the

environment. It is also away to advance progressive politics, policies and
ideology. The sustainability movement is a way for people with a hugely
unpopular political agenda to get into positions of influence so that they can
progress their cause despite lack of public support. On many arenas
sustainability is marketed to students as saving energy and improving the
environment, but turns out to involve projects that have nothing to do with
the environment. 
 
2. Sustainability is imperative.
Sustainability advocates assumes that no one can legitimately and genuinely
disagree with their so called message about sustainability. They therefore
have no realms about imposing their politics and socio on students, faculty,
and staff members. If someone does disagree, they attack that person’s
statements and ignore the actual points.
 
3. Sustainability is ego-centered.
Sustainability advocates put their hands over their ears and are reluctant to
listen to people who point out flaws facts or who have different statements
regarding issues. Sustainability in this sense is a form of ideology: it wipes
out or explains away things doesn’t fit with the premises.
 
4. Sustainability is a pseudo-figure.
Some of the sustainability leaders tip over the end of ideology into
apocalyptic figure, complete with end-of-the-world scenarios, calls to repent,
a new ecological-morality, and worship of the this planet. This is a religion
that misleads to the ideas of “ethics,” ‘justice,” “social mandate,” and “the
right thing” to shame people into compliance.
 
5. Sustainability distorts the purpose of higher education.
Sustainability so called leaders don’t want to just sum sustainability to the
curriculum; they want to have it as the “the foundation of all learning and
practices in higher education”. How exactly does sustainability help us
learn calculus, read Homer, or score well on the LSAT is far from it?  . How
does making sustainability the foundation of higher education prepares us
for other parts of life not encompassed by recycling, or compact fluorescent
bulbs?
 
6. Sustainability shrinks freedom.
Sustainability advocates don’t like free markets or personal liberty. They
believe markets ignore long-term costs and people typically make bad
choices. Instead of liberty, sustainability advocates praise “social justice”
and “equitable distribution of resources” as the foundation of a sustainable
society. [6] These terms may sound nice but they point to governmental
control over everyday life. Ultimately, the sustainability movement is about
taking away your right to think and act for yourself. 
 
7. Sustainability tries to program you.
The proponents of sustainability aim to have “all students engaged as
effective change agents in our sustainability challenges.”[7] This is another
way of narrowing your education. Can’t students simply be students? What
if your goal is to learn something about the world before attempting to
change it? 
8. Sustainability is anti-rational.
Some sustainability advocates—we call them sustainatopians—want to
instill in students an emotional way of knowing the world that is “separate
from the rational.”[8] Many of them believe the industrial revolution was a
mistake and would like to move beyond reason and science in favor of a
combination of intuition and empathy. That runs counter to the basic
purpose of higher education.
 
9. Sustainability bypasses the faculty.
Historically, college teachers have made the key decisions about what they
teach. The sustainability movement on campus, however, took off when
college administrators decided to push it. So far, 650 college presidents have
signed a commitment to combat global warming and infuse sustainability
into the curriculum.[9]
 
10.Sustainability is wasteful.
Sustainability advocates pride themselves on taking the long view and
minimizing waste. In fact the movement has a long history of extravagant
and false predictions about natural resources, environmental perils, and the
consequences of human actions.[10]  These predictions have resulted in
vastly wasteful expenditures and diversions of human time and talent.
Convincing college students to squander their opportunity for a real
education is only the most recent example.
