Environmental awareness campaign

 In partnership with  Bulalwayo Chicken Slice ,  the Environmental Management Agency, and Bulawayo City Council , the NUST students are going to carry out a clean up campaign on the 14th of March at Eghodini bus terminus in the city centre.The campaign aims to show that  Chicken Slice is environmentally responsible. this will encourage vendors and any other people of Bulawayo to desist from dumping trash carelessly.

Environmental education has been conceived as a process of recognising the value and various concepts of the environment. This is aimed at determining the skills and approaches necessary for understanding the relationship between the biophysical and human environments. The relationship between the environment and health cannot be over emphasised.

  Keep it where it belongs!

NUST has done such cleanings in the C.B.D to enhence environmental awareness.Some of the awareness campaigns which have been done in have not been very effective because of lack of competent human resources and appropriate environmental awareness methods as well as information. The group therefore aims to help such programmes with human resources and strategic methods to any organisation which is willing in participation and in research for any awareness programme or environmental issues of concern to provide reliable and efficient details for the entire awareness programme.

'Why do people act environmentally and what are the barriers to proenvironmental behavior?’ is extremely complex. By ‘pro-environmental behavior’it  simply mean behavior that consciously seeks to minimize the negative impact of one’s actions on the natural and built world (e.g. minimize resource and energyconsumption, use of non-toxic substances, reduce waste production).
