of Environmental Protection

Abstract

In the globalising world, scientific and technical progress, increase in production areas, industrial and economic development have positively affected society and human life, but have caused serious deterioration of the ecological balance. Every person working in any field should have ecological culture and ecological knowledge. Since chemistry is mostly related to ecology among the subjects taught, the role of chemical production and anthropogenic effects in disrupting the ecological balance is great. In chemistry teaching, importance should be given to providing students with the necessary knowledge and skills about the source of environmental problems, environmental concepts, causes of problems and ways to eliminate them.
