I think it would be great, if pupils and students at school would have at least one lesson a month aimed at environmental issues. They could learn how to protect the air, water, protect and nurture biodiversity and conserve natural resources. Among adults, such awareness, could be provided by lectures on the topic, that could take place for example once a year and that would be compulsory. I choose environmental awareness, because it is really important to confront people by global issues, to make them realize the need of changing their lifestyle.”
