Abstract:
While countless themes can spark the interests of language learners and teachers, one of the most critical issues affecting people globally is the environmental degradation of the planet. Themes such as global warming, deforestation, and water pollution are regularly featured in the news, thereby raising our awareness of the troubled state of the Earth. When educational institutions - from elementary schools to university-based English foundation programs – recognize the value of environmental education, language teachers will be in a unique position to promote environmental awareness while teaching English.
