These are universal values and respectively represent the five domains of human personality. The programme of values based environmental education can be built adopting different approaches as a separate subject, inviting eminent thinkers, organising co–curricular activities and essential teachings of great world leaders. Mass–media can also play a vital role in this direction. It is also essential that government should take initiatives for introduction of value based education on environmental education
