Environmental education and education for sustainability – some South African perspectives 2nd Edition

Product Description

The world is in an environmental crisis dominated by environmental issues and risks such as loss of biodiversity, pollution, deforestation, urbanisation and many others. For many commentators, the solution lies in the provision of adequate education, including environmental education. This wide-ranging and thought-provoking book is designed primarily as an introductory text for tertiary students who are encountering environmental education for the first time. It raises a variety of interesting issues related to the teaching of environmental content. Since no comparable book exists in South Africa, it will fill a need for students and educators alike.
