Teaching Green Living

Teaching Respect with Green Living

 

Today’s children are riddled with the violence and a complete lack of respect for people and the environment.  Many children feel that they are entitled to things and do not respect what they get.  For these children, learning how to live green can teach them how to respect nature and wildlife which can lead to a respect for their fellow humans. 

 

There are two major parts of living green that people focus on.  The first part is the saving money and the future for the next generation.  The other part is the act of living green out of respect for the Earth and those other inhabitants in it.  This respect can be taught and passed on to the generation who needs it the most.

 

Respect for the Earth includes taking care of the animals, people, and forests of the earth, but it also includes preventing waste buildups and managing our resources.  These are all at the heart of the green living process.  Taking care of animals and people is accomplished by respecting and taking care of those who cannot take care of themselves. This means not abusing or treating animals like objects.  This means respecting and helping one’s neighbors and friends.  This means having respect and learning to respect all life.

 

Taking care of the forest is often associated with anti-logging rallies, but these are often ineffective and costly.  Better methods of logging should be explored and are currently being explored by logging companies.  Logging in such manners as to promote the re-growth of the forest can help the land remain fertile and free of erosion.  This in turn gives the wild life a place to live and flourish. 

 

Preventing waste is one of the most important aspects of green living and one of the things that help to promote respect.  Preventing waste helps to teach respect by teaching the child how to conserve natural resources and dollar resources.  Read more
