APPLICATION IN TEACHING ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION.

• Civic literacy emphasizes the importance of instilling basic environmental education information, such as environmental management and conservation, in individuals. I'd show them how to use what they've learned to help the environment.
• Global awareness and cross-cultural abilities are essential. Global awareness is essential for fostering cultural harmony. It is the recognition of diversity, and with this, I would add global stories into my environmental education program.
• Critical and Inventive Thinking- Environmental education improves critical thinking abilities by giving subjects and challenges that cut across the curriculum and improve knowledge integration.
• Communication- Communication is crucial in raising awareness about the impacts of pollution on the environment and disseminating information about environmental protection benefits.
• Collaboration and information skills- Facilitators engage with agencies and stakeholders to prevent, manage, and resolve environmental problems through negotiation, organized discourse, mediation, and other methods. It advocates for a holistic approach to environmental protection and conservation.
