Environmental education can help people gain the knowledge, skills, motivation, values, and commitment they'll need to manage the earth's resources sustainably and to take responsibility for maintaining environmental quality.We can define Sustainability as the practice of meeting the needs of the current generation without degrading and destroying the natural resources: water, soil, biodiversity, oil, minerals and natural services as flood control, air purification, pollination.Future generations will need it.Our lives and economies are dependent on natural capital, which is made up of these natural resources and natural services, and the energy provided by the sun.There are so many easy ways to become more sustainable.We are all creatures of habit, and changing our behavior takes some time.As educators, small steps can be shown in order to find solutions and to make a positive difference in protecting our environment for our communities and your planet.
