Рекомендации учителю по использованию материалов проекта «Linking the world into the classroom: Environmental problems»
В наши дни взаимодействие общества и природы, благодаря появлению новых отраслей науки, техники, производства и расширению сферы влияния трудовой деятельности людей на окружающий мир, стало настолько тесным, что вторжение человека в природу уже не может быть хаотическим и безграничным. Оно должно определенным образом регулироваться, иначе человечество окажется перед лицом экологической катастрофы, не менее угрожающей его существованию, чем ядерная война.
Индейцы из Америки еще 140 лет назад высказали мысль:
«Земля не принадлежит нам: мы принадлежим Земле. Все на Земле связано. Что случится с Землёй, случится и с нами. Что мы делаем на Земле, обязательно отразиться на нас самих. И только когда последнее дерево погибнет, последняя река будет отравлена и последняя рыба выловлена, поймем ли мы, что мы не можем, есть деньги, что мы питаемся тем, что дает природа. » (Word Wise, Мартин Севиор)
