In this commentary Matias Laine reviews the vivid paper written by Rob Gray (2013) who discusses his view of how sustainability is positioned within accounting education and how accounting educators can directly approach sustainability in their teaching. Laine notes many of the aspects that Gray considers important reflect the starting point of his own teaching endeavours. Instead of debating Gray's views, Laine seeks to engage in the conversation by offering a brief reflection on how he sought to address sustainability in what he taught.
