Is there any formal "science" of SUSTAINABILITY established in the university and research establishments?

"Sustainability" is a broad concept which encompasses many fields…agriculture, industry, economics, urban design, and the like. Is there any formal study of sustainability, or any practitioners or preachers of sustainability that have made efforts to formally define this broad idea?

I don’t think so. You can be the first.

A group of eccology professors may disscuss the topic in a "What If" session and even try to envolve other collegues, but a formal course of study I don’t believe is being offered, but it would be a very broad and liberal therory, because it would have to encumpass the world or planet, not just our own ecconomics and culture. Great idea, go with it.
