Anil Agarwal on Human-Nature Interaction in a third world country, he said that

“I am often amazed and extremely angry, when people talk about environmental education for the villages. It is so called, educated people who need Environment Education more than anyone else.”

Most of the time kasi, yung mga nasa villages, payak lang pamumuhay nila and majority of their practices are environmental friendly. Sure, they are not knowledgeable enough towards environment because what they are doing are mostly from common sense and tradition practices (hirap din kasi ng education especially sa mga far-flung barangays) but they have less carbon footprint compared to others na nakapag aral nga educated kung baga but still throw plastics and other practices. Villagers might not know it but most of their practices are organic living..

Even still, some needs educating pa rin..

Sorry but I'd have to disagree with your statement, well on my end. First of all, having witnessed, most people in small villages don't have a proper way of disposing non-biodegradable junk, most villagers would just throw them in mountain steeps, land crevices or fissures and worst case scenario, burning them off. As the government doesn't have much access to such funds, they can't afford a routine waste collection. Almost half of the people in here don't even have access to proper comfort rooms, they just go outside and take a crap. Well I don't really know if that has any impact at all in carbon printing, but damn..... disgusting!! And there's not even a program in here regarding organic farming, everyone in here just sprays insecticides and what else that makes the water stream poisonous. Well I could go on and on, for more examples but truth be told there really isn't any difference between them and us people living in the city. Yes somebody collects our waste but then they'd get thrown in landfills, waste processing plants that burns them off and etc. So yeah..... for me it's not about the lack of education, it's more on inaction or priorities that makes us numb to our environment.

This kind of villages have already accustomed to the new ways of the world.. My statement is more likely true to far flung villages, the one which I have personal experience with in my grandparents place... But yes, I agree with you, I witness it myself in my own village (current place) which happen to be near a river.. I always make a morning stroll in my area and witnessing those statements you just made in the rest of your reply...

also, where not talking about people in the villages vs. people in the city.
but rather people in the villages vs. educated people (these educated people could be anywhere, could be in villages as well, could be in the city).. my statement just describe those who are not really aware of the environment but still do what is right.. maybe the "most of time" statement is the problem in my reply.. Kasi parang hindi na most, diminishing na or konti nalang.. that part there, I stand corrected.
