Environmental education is a field of study and practice that focuses on educating individuals about the environment, sustainability, and the importance of conservation and preservation. It aims to raise awareness about environmental issues, promote sustainable behaviors, and empower people to take action to protect and improve the environment. Environmental education can take place in formal settings such as schools and colleges, as well as in informal settings such as community organizations, nature centers, and parks. It often integrates scientific knowledge with social, political, and ethical considerations in order to foster a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of environmental issues. Environmental education is seen as fundamental in addressing global challenges such as climate change, pollution, habitat destruction, and loss of biodiversity.
