    (Tangaza University College, 2003) Machaya, Trust
    There is a great need to educate everyone in the care of all created things, big, small, ugly and beautiful, useful and ornamental (WAJ1BU, VoI5, No.4 1990). This is what is embodied in the conservation of resources. In 1898, the concept of resource conservation was introduced. It confirmed that people are the problem in the environmental crises: people can also become the solution. However, what is necessary is that, people be made aware of environmental issues affecting them in their local, national, regional and global surroundings Factual information on environmental problem is now very accessible in the mass media and is included in the formal educational curriculum of many nations. Thus, the international organizations such as the International Fund for Agricultural Development, the United Nations Development Programme, the World Wildlife Fund and the World Bank are all making environmental awareness more central to their programs. Nevertheless, how many of these sources about environmental information have reached students? This is the hub of this study; to find out the sources of environmental information among CTIE students.
