Since the 1970's environmental education has received much
attention in many countries from policy makers and educators
interested in merging the complexities of the terms environment and
education. And while environmental education has expanded its
presence in pedagogical and didactic endeavor, its history also
demonstrates contested ideological foundations regarding its
implementation in schools. Moreover there is scant literature
available examining student conceptions of environmental education,
environmentalism and/or sustainability. This book, therefore,
provides insights into this important area via an international
study examining Australian and Canadian student's conceptions of
environmental education. Through this study it becomes apparent
that for the students who participated in this research project,
environmental education is, at is best irrelevant, and at its worst
depressing.
