Hand in hand for a happier world!

Summary/Abstract: Although the exploitation of the Earth’s resources for development purposes started since the beginning of humankind, much of the environmental degradation we see today is the result of increased human consumption of natural resources which began during the industrial revolution. The role that knowledge about environment can have in the education of its youth is an important question for any society. Environmental education teaches students about how the planet’s physical and biological systems work, and how we can create a more sustainable future. Today’s generation of children is the first to grow up indoors. Their plugged‑in lives are largely devoid of exploring the natural world and we are just beginning to understand the ramifications of their virtual world. The objectives of environmental education is to increase public awareness about environmental issues, explore possible solutions, and to lay the foundations for a fully informed and active participation of individual in the protection of environment and the prudent and rational use of natural resources. In addition influencing role in shaping peoples attitude and behavior has personal, social, economical, cultural, and political dimensions. Thus the highest involvement and participation of society, private and public sectors, and government are needed towards developing environmental education.
