Environmental Education 1
Environmental Education 1 : A process that allows individuals to explore environmental issues, engage in problem solving, and take action to improve the environment. As a result, individuals develop a deeper understanding of environmental issues and have the skills to make informed and responsible decisions. The components of environmental education are: (a) Awareness and sensitivity to the environment and environmental challenges; (b) Knowledge and understanding of the environment and environmental challenges; (c) Attitudes of concern for the environment and motivation to improve or maintain environmental quality; (d) Skills to identify and help resolve environmental challenges; (e) Participation in activities that lead to the resolution of environmental challenges. Environmental education does not advocate a particular viewpoint or course of action. Rather, environmental education teaches individuals how to weigh various sides of an issue through critical thinking and it enhances their own problem-solving and decision-making skills
