Abstract
In this chapter, the authors reiterate how, in the face of the unprecedented impacts of climate change, early childhood leaders, children and their communities have been able to work towards living sustainably. This chapter presents positive actions undertaken by educational leaders implementing ECEfS, highlighting how to live more sustainably within early childhood education communities. Six case studies are presented that illustrate the power of transformative leadership to engage in sustainable practices.
