Research Abstract |
This study makes three proposals for ways to improve environmental awareness in Japan. The first proposal is for the introduction of a new subject called "Environmental Studies", a change that would require drastically revising the current subjects of "Integrated Studies," "Home Economics" and "Technology." The second is that civil organizations focused on environmental education reduce their membership fees to the level of American and European organizations, as by thus encouraging more people to join they would likely become more effective in their work. It is also important to create conditions that will make it easier for experts from such environmental organizations to contribute to improving environmental education in schools. The third proposal is that Japanese organizations which already have the rights to American environmental education programs should extend these rights, where appropriate, to other organizations that are engaged primarily in promoting environmental education.
