The problem with waste is that it's origins are often community wide and there are a number of reasons why it occurs or persists in a particular area. Children are often little involved. But as these children grow up and turn into voices in their community, they are poised to effect greater change incrementally. I think around the world, generational change is hoped for in environmental education.Dr. Kathleen Alexanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13130864794076274591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8830629176593997706.post-52207051201878126972012-02-17T02:51:04.996-08:002012-02-17T02:51:04.996-08:00I'd like to ask a question rather than make a ...I'd like to ask a question rather than make a comment since I teach environmental education to students in Swaziland where litter is also a major problem. <br /><br />Do you foresee the spontaneous litter clean-up the students engaged in as the start of a change in behavior, or are they likely to fall back into their habit of littering? <br /><br />In Swaziland, it is such an ingrained habit that it's going to take quit a while to change, and though clean-ups such as this are helpful they do not address the underlying problem. So I am curious to know how things will play out there.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Elaine FranklinElaine Franklinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8830629176593997706.post-51823020496021104432012-02-13T12:28:32.338-08:002012-02-13T12:28:32.338-08:00Nice work Kathy and team.Nice work Kathy and team.Sinkahttp://www.sinka.comnoreply@blogger.com
