What
- Explore the relations and influences between sustainable development, environmental education and eco-truism in natural reserves. Natural reserves have the same decisional problem throughout the world.Sustainable development is a fundamental and necessary process for all aspects of society. Examples could well be those of industry and tourism which plan to transform existing natural reserves into eco-tourism activities, thus reducing the local and global impact. One of the key elements to ensure the success of sustainable development is to stimulate environmental education.
