The 2013 EE Expo theme is “Environmental Education and the Arts”. Environmental education sometimes focuses too much attention on fixing environmental problems rather than encouraging environmental appreciation. As Baba Dioum (1968), a Sengali environmentalist, noted in a general assembly speech before the International Union for Conservation of Nature,
“In the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.”
What better way to teach our students to understand and love the Earth than by sharing the joy of nature. And one of the best ways to do that is to teach environmental concepts and issues through the Arts — visual and performing!
