Environmental Sustainability and Education (ANTALYA - TURKEY)
Today's world includes a range of environmental problems such as depletion of natural resources, air, water and soil pollution, climate change, resource waste, and loss of biodiversity. These problems can lead to the disruption of natural ecosystems, the exacerbation of global issues like climate change, and harmful consequences for human health.
