Agenda 21 advocates education to disseminate information regarding sustainable development (Jikling, 1994) The United Kingdom's UK Strategy for Sustainable Development crafted in 1994 aimed to raise the awareness of the people through the integration of environmental policies into all aspects of goverment, a shared responsibility between goverment, local authorities, businesses, and non-governmental organizations, (Munton & Collins, 1998) among other provisions in the Strategy. The full-world position is a radical departure from the dominant societal perception of the isolated circular flow of goods and factors of production between firms and households.
