And this research examined the level of awareness of "rights of nature" among high school students.As a result of this research, the following characteristics of high school students' awareness of "rights of nature" were clarified:While many students were expressed a strong affinity for the concepts of "legal rights",few students were expressed a strong affinity for the concepts of "ethical rights".
