Increasing Environmental Awareness

Description

Environmental Awareness or environmentalism is a concern for the preservation, restoration, or improvement of the natural environment, such as the conservation of natural resources, prevention of pollution, and certain land use actions. It often supports the struggles of indigenous peoples against the spread of globalisation to their way of life, which is seen as less harmful to the environment.

A increase in environmental awareness will lead to a better and more efficient environmental management which is not, as the phrase suggests, the management of the environment as such but rather the management of the humankind's interaction with and impact upon the environment.
