Polluted environmental issues have been a global problem. Learners can take responsibility for environmental conditions that directly affect themselves and to get a personal approach to global environmental problems (Fauville et al, 2014).

Attitudes are expressed as learning outcomes because attitudes can change. Information acquisition through education is one of the factors that influence attitude change.
