Value based environmental education make one conscious about the need to understand the consequences of human actions. Truth, righteous, conduct, peace, love and non-violence are the basic values that should be incorporated in environmental education programme. These are universal values and respectively represent the five domains of human personality. The programme of values based environmental education can be built adopting different approaches as a separate subject, inviting eminent thinkers, organising co-curricular activities and essential teachings of great world leaders. Mass-media can also play a vital role in this direction. It is also essential that government should take initiatives for introduction of value based education on environmental education. Our present generation is confused about their values because of double standard of practices by people in position of power and break down of traditional values without proper replacement. This confusion may be removed by education because it is through education that society seeks to promote and preserve its cherished values .Education is man making and character building programme as well as the training of body, mind, soul. Education is an instrument of social change and national development and perfection and excellence. As the health of the planet continues to deteriorate, it is critical to develop environmentally literate citizens. According to Hollweg et al. (2011), an environmentally literate person is someone who “makes informed decisions concerning the environment; is willing to act on these decisions…and participates in civic life”.
