People have little understanding of the importance of the natural world. What are the reasons and how can people learn more about the natural world?

In

this

era, it is indisputable that humans have a deficiency in

knowledge

about the natural environment. Personally, I believe that there are two primary causes leading to

this

issue, namely poor education and ignorance about

nature

.

Consequently

, several measures should be implemented to tackle

this

problem.

First

of all, people’s insufficient insight into

nature

can be attributed to the education system. That recent curriculum puts an excessive emphasis on academic

knowledge

is undeniable. Students are bombarded with scientific subjects

such

as mathematics, physics and so on, which are believed to provide them with a better employment prospect.

Therefore

, they rarely have chances to absorb practical

knowledge

about their surroundings and wildlife. To address

this

problem, it is advisable that environmental studies are a compulsory subject at school.

Additionally

, academic programs should involve field trips to raise students’ consciousness of

nature

, resulting in their proper actions in the future.

Secondly

, the inadequacy of attention to the environment is a key factor responsible for

this

phenomenon. Most people are primarily concerned about issues that bear direct relevance to their life,

such

as economic prosperity or health care.

Furthermore

, people now are living under man-made regions of cities and towns,

hence

problems related to environmental degradation are of little account to them.

As a result

, citizens are highly recommended to get high exposure to the media about the importance of

nature

. Environment-associated articles and videos should be frequently and widely produced to provide people with basic

knowledge

of environmental issues.

Moreover

, posters with appealing pictures and slogans should be made omnipresent in public areas

such

as shopping malls or bus stations. In conclusion, not only academic programs, but

also

the ignorance of humans are underlying reasons for the shortage of insight into

nature

. My view is that some feasible solutions should be taken to help people learn more about the world around them.
