Ideal education should provide opportunities to people to become environmentally conscious citizens. The commitment must include the dimensions of social responsibility (management model), Ethics (values), and sustainability (results and impacts) and accorded institutional priority. Business education system is criticized for the reason of failing to inculcate students in moral conduct [Gardner, 1991], and having weakened the moral character of students [Etzioni, 2002] in the wake of numerous scandals and financial crises. Institutions need to carry out training, research and social debate – in the rational and sustainable use of resources, in its practices of governance, transparency and accountability so as to realise social responsibility.
