Sustainability through Soccer

“Klotz is highly qualified, both for his grasp of systems-thinking and sustainability, and for his knowledge of soccer and experience playing it—as well as for his passion for the game. This book covers the topic of sustainability well and in a fun, nonpedantic way.”—Thomas Hudspeth, Professor Emeritus of Environmental Studies and Natural Resources, University of Vermont

“Sustainability through Soccer is effective in its discussion of systems and sustainability through multiple relatable concepts and narratives (soccer, personal anecdotes, historical events). This book addresses one of the challenges in teaching these courses: making the subject relatable. Klotz addresses this particular issue by using soccer as a heuristic tool to teach more broadly about sustainability and systems. It is a great starting point.”—Michael Finewood, Assistant Professor of Geography and Sustainability, Falk School of Sustainability, Chatham University
