The Role of Education in Encouraging Pro-Environmental Behavior
In the current global landscape, environmental degradation is not only a problem but a challenge that focuses on immediate attention from every individual and community. Education is essential in fostering attitudes and motivations toward the environment. For instance, education can help to increase understanding and thus, help people assist in better decision making towards the environment. That is why it is dire that environmental education is integrated in those subjects and activities that are usually formal and informal in nature so that a society with responsible generations will be formed.
