SWEDEN ENVIRONMENTAL NEWS
Japan, 2003, October
A Swedish Style Basic Environmental Course on CD-ROM has been released for Japanese people. The CD-ROM contains attractive illustrations, making the learning fun. Even if you have thought about environmental Problems for the first time, or you think that Environmental issues just is a troublesome thing, this CD-ROM
will make it easy for you to accept environmental work.
Its also easy to understand for Japanese people, since the CD-ROMs contents has been adjusted to Japanese situation/condition.
It has been translated by PEO EKBERG, who has a long-term experience in providing information about environmental protection and Sweden, as well as his wife SATOKO EKBERG.
Emphasising environmental PROBLEM as a PROBLEM, will not help,
but this course is rather a mirror of the Swedish way of environmental education, providing a positive posture. Not emphasising small problems in too deep fashion, this course is a holistic course.
You will feel the environmental problems close to your life style, and it will make you feel opportunities. This CD-ROM may also be helpful for Companies and local governments.
One is able to study by oneself, and since it’s a Swedish Style Education, it will make the user discover many kinds of new ways (for environmental work). This basic course is a good base for discussions and further creation. And that will probably in the end, make the user turn theory into action."
