The International Day of Education, proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly every January 24, presents a timely opportunity to focus on one of the most pressing issues of our time: the environmental crisis. If you're looking to deepen your understanding of the environment, climate change, and sustainability, here are three ways to get started.

Read books and watch videos that explore climate issues

Learning about environmental issues has become more accessible, thanks to technology. Online platforms, documentaries, and e-books put a wealth of information at your fingertips.

 

Social media also plays a role in spreading awareness through engaging content that can spark conversations and inspire action. With just a few clicks, anyone can stay informed about global challenges like climate change, sustainable practices, and the fight against pollution.

Join environmental NGOs

Several non-government organizations (NGOs) in the Philippines conduct various programs and activities to raise awareness about environmental concerns. 

 

Some of these organizations hold educational discussions that you can join to further deepen your knowledge about environmental issues. 

 

You can also seek NGOs that frequently hold engaging activities like clean-up drives in polluted areas like residential areas, sidewalks, rivers, and beaches.

Take online classes about sustainability and the environment

Another way to learn about sustainability and environmental issues is from experts. Some NGOs and other environmental groups invite experts to discuss various environmental issues in an online class or a virtual discussion.

 

There are also local and international universities offering online courses related to these matters like basics on sustainability and environmental management and ethics. Some of them are even free for everyone to access.

 

Some experts use online discussion boards and social media sites to reach out to the public further and educate them about environmental issues. They make these issues easy to understand to the public. 

 


These tips can help you become a better environmental advocate, convince others to take sustainability and environmental issues seriously and make our world a better place.
