The role of environmental education in reducing water wastage in primary schools in Empangeni district

South Africa is a water-scarce country and receives less rainfall than the average rainfall of the World. As population increases, and development calls for increased allocation of ground water and surface water for the domestic, agriculture and industrial sectors, the pressure on water resources intensifies.
This is exacerbated by the wastages that occur in schools and homes. Conservation of water by all consumers is essential.
The study attempts to identify practices that lead to wastage of water and indicate strategies for the reduction of water wastage and conservation strategy. / Educational Studies / M.Ed. (Environmental Education)
