Recent research shows that ‘environmental denial’ (the denial of anthropogenic impact on the natural world) plays an important role in environmental education. The difficulty in changing our detrimental habits stems from the fact that identities in our societies are bound up with consumerist practices. Because we cannot simply give up practices that shape our identity, environmental education has to fi nd ways of substituting unhealthy habits with environmentally acceptable ones. One method of achieving this is through experiential education based on experiences with the natural world and their importance for identity formation. The paper presents a case study involving experiential education in environmental ethics, implemented at the university level. Findings show that the implementation of experiential education technique (fi eld trip) yielded positive results in connection with students’ overcoming of environmental denial and consequential change of their environmental outlook.

What does One Health imply for veterinary ethics education? In order to answer this question, we will first have to establish what One Health itself involves. The meaning and scope of One Health, however, cannot be established without reference to its values—whose health matters? Veterinary ethics education is well equipped to facilitate such an open-ended inquiry into multispecies health. One Health also widens the scope of veterinary ethics by making salient, among other fields, environmental ethics, global health justice, and non-Western approaches to ethics. Finally, One Health requires students to engage with interdependence. Discussing three levels of interdependence, we argue that veterinary ethics stands to benefit from a more contemplative pedagogy.

The aim of research was to form students’ ecological citizenship by using a nature-based learning model. Some problems of natural damage such as forest fires, landslides, and floods must be everyone’s concern and responsibility. Therefore, schools needed to prepare a generation who had a responsibility towards nature. The method applied in the research was a descriptive method, while data collection technique was done by means of literature study. Data analysis techniques were in-depth reading to find more accurate data. They were compiled using logical arguments based on the results of analysis. The results of research indicate that forming ecological citizenship in a school environment can be done with environmental knowledge, environmental skills, and environmental ethics. These three aspects can be obtained using a learning model that is in accordance with the basic competencies to be achieved. The learning model that brings students closer to nature is a nature-based learning model outside the classroom that is also adjusted to the basic competencies contained in the Pancasila and Citizenship Education subject. The three aspects of ecological citizenship formation in these schools can be implemented properly if they are socialized to teachers and students. The purpose of this socialization is that teachers can integrate environmental problems into lessons. In contrast, socialization to students is carried out in the hope that an attitude of loving the environment is formed.

First I explain the need for environmental ethics in general and in Malaysia in particular. We have been severely lagging ethically regarding the new capabilities and responsibilities we have in affecting the environment in many ways, last not least through our life styles. Therefore it is important to develop environmental ethics education based on both philosophical and religious ethics. A major challenge is to move between tradition and modernity and in an ethical spectrum ranging from theocentrism to enlightened anthropocentrism. Unsustainable patterns like overconsumption and overpopulation have to be addressed as well as the role of active citizenship. Recommended educational approaches include critical thinking, multiple perspectives learning and the learning of values.
