If schools taught 50 percent environmental education, would green living habits improve?

Antonia Mogg: thats a really good idea,people don't realize whats happening.and its really urgent.i would say yes [:

Horace Escue: Today's students can barely read or write. Cutting the time for basic education won't help that any. However, a modest increase in environmental education in place of courses such as drivers' ed might not be bad.

Rocio Karvis: One thing that you learn from a study of statistics is that correlations do not prove causality. How does the teaching of God cause a student to perform well in mathematics for example? Can God be measured with a yardstick? Genetic frequencies within an interbreeding population can be measured. If you were to do a comparison of American states, which states would have the highest educational levels? If evolution is taught in all states then OTHER variables must be at work in producing different educational standards across the country. Then compare the USA with other countries using those variables. The Unite! d States was not founded on the principle of God, but on the separation of church and state. Thomas Jefferson and George Washington were deists. The First Amendment protects all faiths. By the way, I am from Australia, where evolution is taught in our school system. We have creationists here too, but they are not as influential as in the USA. But we do wish that you American creationists would stop funding ours. You are undermining our clearly superior education system!...Show more

Barrett Alosa: It would really depend on the person, immersion into something does not mean the ignorance level will drop, some people are just intolerant.

Maria Devenney: Isn't that what Hitler did? Systemic "Education"?

Charis Deguzman: Definitely, because today's school children are the future's grown people to live in a good environmental conditions. Educating children at school stage will be most effective because when a child starts to adopt green living habits in his hom! e, every other elderly family members will definitely impresse! d to adopt them. When a child is educated; one whole family is educated!

Chris Wilczewski: um sorry man but kids of this generation are kind of ungratefull so still it would not change and maybe if we tried to clean up the earth instead of teaching others how to do it we would get things done.

Theresia Fashaw: No... There would just be alot more idiots with low IQ's around like you.
