Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study,we developed an environmental ethics education program to introduce the idea of environmental ethics into the field of ecology in “basic biology” taught in high schools.A finding was obtained from the trial introduction of the program: In the field of ecology in high school “basic biology,the deep-ecology work “experiences of identification with familiar nature in the school yard” were effective in increasing students’ awareness of the importance of ecological conservation and environmental ethics. 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".
