Abstract

High population growth and subsistence agriculture eventually lead to forest degradation, deforestation, soil erosion, and loss of biodiversity. These environmental problems are further compounded by illiteracy, lack of conservation awareness, financial and technical constraints, and wrong policy on the part of the government. Environmental education gets least priority because other immediate development issues become more crucial for the government. The present paper discusses the views of principal of school about the environmental education programme.
