I think students should know about the environment and how we are destroying it. They should learn how to properly recycle things and what the consequences of not taking care of the environment are. I’m in a college level Environmental Science class and I am learning things that I feel like I should have learned years ago. Things I already knew in the class I had learned out of my own curiosity and concern, like how small papers can present a problem in recycling plants and how something plugged into an outlet is constantly drawing energy. But how does everyone else figure it out? Companies hide a lot of information from the public. I feel like this information is essential to learn in the deteriorating environment we’re in now.
Have you ever heard of a place where environmental science is a part of core curriculum? I definitely think that it should be.
