P. Newman
The author has been involved for several decades in the teaching of environmental science and sustainability, the completion of the world's first State Sustainability Strategy and the formation of a Sustainability Professionals Association. This paper uses both practical case studies and theoretical exploration to offer explanations for how and why 'magic' occurs during processes involving sustainability by environmental professionals. This quality appears to be an emergent property of a complex process involving a wide number of stakeholders who suspend their professional labels in order to contribute. The sum is observably greater than the assembled parts with the result that apparently impossible things happen. A more human dimension seems to be needed to make some aspects of the environmental agenda work. The paper examines the core competences associated with such an 'anti-professional' approach in terms of its challenge to reductionist techniques and to 'experts' as it seeks more integrated, long-term solutions. Finally it explores whether such competences will shape future economies or whether the pressure of conformity and standardisation will destroy the 'magic'.

The paper discusses changes both in environmental education and in the labour market of environmental professionals, within the context of the European Union. Changes in the Netherlands are estimated using statistical data from the 1970s to the present illustrating that the life-cycle of environmental education is related directly to changes within policy-making and thus the labour market. The author contends that strict environmental policy invokes investments in pollution controls, which then trigger demands for technical specialists with environmental expertise. A few years after the investment upswing, the demand for environmental management and administrators grows and the environmental labour market is at the point of maximum expansion. After a few decades, the market becomes saturated and demand takes a downturn. The paper outlines how the education of environmental professionals follows the same cyclical pattern but with a few years of delay. Within a three-decade cycle, the educational strands decay, or they innovate to stay in tune with new issues. Options for such innovations are indicated.
