ECOLOGICAL EDUCATION FOR THE FUTURE

Odpadki za Slovenijo in svet predstavljajo vedno večji problem. Načrtno se je treba čim prej ekološko ozavestiti in prispevati k varovanju okolja. Prav zaradi tega smo se odločili raziskati stanje ločevanja odpadkov v Vrtcu Mojca, Enota Muca. Izsledki ankete so pokazali, da poteka ločeno zbiranje odpadkov na zadovoljivi ravni. Ugotovili smo, da so se otroci ob naravoslovnih dejavnostih, pravljicah in ob igri začeli zavedati sebe in prispevati svoj delček k celoti. Dejstvo je, da starši in vzgojitelji učimo otroke in jih vzgajamo ekološko, velikokrat pa tudi otroci aktivno sodelujejo in opozorijo na storjene napake pri ločevanju ali ravnanju z odpadki. V procesih ločevanja in recikliranja odpadkov ohranjamo naravne vire, varujemo naravo in industriji vračamo surovine za proizvodnjo novih izdelkov. Možnosti za napredek pri ločenem zbiranju so vedno na voljo. V prihodnosti je treba največ narediti na preprostem načelu, imenovanem manj je več. Manj proizvedenih odpadkov pomeni več možnosti za ohranitev naravnega okolja.Wastes produced in Slovenia and in the rest of the world represent a growing problem. Planned ecologically aware and contribute towards environmental care is needed as soon as possible. That is why we decided to explore the state of waste separation in Mojca kindergarten unit Muca. The survey questionnaire results showed that the waste sorting is at satisfactory level. We found that the children through science activities, fairy tales and the game began to realize and contribute their share to the world. The fact is that parents and educators teach children and raise them ecologically. Many children are actively involved and draw attention to mistakes made in waste sorting management. Through the process of sorting and recycling of waste we preserve natural resources, protect nature and returning industry raw materials to produce new products. Progress prospects of waste recycling are available everywhere. In the future, it is necessary to do more on the simple principle less is more. Produced less waste means more opportunities for the preservation of the natural environment
