These issues pose challenges for organizations, businesses, and communities, and engineers will need to begin developing ideas and projects to implement the transition of engineered systems. This work presents a methodology for shifting away from unsustainable activities. Teaching the Transition Engineering approach and methodology is the focus of the text, and the concept is presented in a way that engineers can begin applying it in their work UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/id/097070ab-c735-4eb0-8924-1d2806d491a9/9781000692211.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/62932 ER -
