About Environment Education

Environment education has for long been limited to a narrow focus on nature and wildlife, topics on which a vast amount of literature already exists. The Environment Education Unit (EEU) at CSE was launched to initiate ecological literacy.

EEU targets the future inheritors of Earth and tomorrow's planners and administrators. It promotes an understanding of the environment amongst participants to facilitate a push towards a sustainable and equitable future. The unit aims to come up with quality resource material and programmes for educational institutions, students and environmental educators to foster awareness and positive environmental action.

video Queen's Valley School, Dwarka, shows how to be climate friendly and save money with solar power

In New Delhi’s Queen’s Valley School, the ‘energy’ is in full swing! The school had installed an 80 kWp solar power plant in 2017 to cut down on the electricity consumption from the grid and use renewable energy. Taking advantage of the Government of India's net-metering policy, the school is able to save a substantial amount of money on their electricity bills while using an environment-friendly source of energy. The Green Schools Programme (GSP), through this video, aims to help other schools understand the installation process, maintenance, and benefits of solar power plants.  Visit our website to know more about the programme: https://www.greenschoolsprogramme.org/
