education is quite important and it is a need of our present society. Environmental education should be
included in the curriculum of our educational institutions. Teacher training programs should be
introduced, properly developed and implemented. It is essential that pre-service teachers should advance
their environmental knowledge and awareness in order to mold society for excellence
