Abstract
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.
