Plenty of efforts almost everywhere for greening the curriculum. I remember Indian Supreme Court directing this quite a while ago. You might like to see the relevant links below. Ian's list is very useful, though.

climate change must start with education. green curriculum could be way out !
1. An option to green the curriculum is by adding environmental information to existing subjects/modules or learning areas. For example:
-an environmental module in Geography
- a lecture on an environmental issue in Biology or using environmental examples in Mathematics
2. Another option is called the “integrated curriculum action,” integrated curriculum around action to address relevant environmental issues. Some of the essential elements of this approach are:
-critical action
-dialogue
-participation(action) in solving local problems
3. the other mode, that of multidisciplinary (infusion) is that EE as a discipline that is incorporated as a component of established disciplines taught as subjects/modules. These subjects would be interrelated. Examination questions would then be within the other subjects.
Organizations are going green, how do they go green – it means environmental issues are discussed in the board room but if in the training they were exposed to EE it would be easier. In Business Management program a module of EE can be introduced. There are a number of generic modules if you look at programs such as Tourism and Hospitality programs and Business Management.
NB: I hope this will be useful, good day.
