Outdoor environmental education as a nature-based solution for “education” and “environment”: a new conceptual framework and its pilot application in a coastal community case study in Taiwan
This study developed a framework for outdoor environmental education focused on coastal conservation in Taiwan, including topics like marine pollution and land crab protection. While not directly about microplastics, the educational approach addresses broader environmental awareness that includes plastic pollution in oceans. Building environmental literacy in young people is one strategy for reducing the plastic waste that eventually becomes microplastic contamination.
"raising Students’ Awareness About Nature Conservation: from the Park to the City"
This paper presents the EduCITY project, which uses mobile devices, augmented reality, and outdoor games to teach students about nature conservation and environmental sustainability. The approach brings environmental education out of the classroom into urban and natural settings. The project is relevant to microplastics awareness as it promotes environmental literacy in school-age children.
The role of youth adventure programs for shaping a conservation ethic
This research examined how youth outdoor adventure programs foster conservation ethics and pro-environmental behaviors in participants that persist into adulthood. Environmental education that builds emotional connections to nature is important for developing the next generation of advocates for reducing plastic and microplastic pollution.
