Abstract
Environmental sustainability is one of the most significant global challenges in the twenty-first century (World Health Organization [WHO] 2015; Barrera-Hernández et al. 2020). Educating individuals on how to engage in pro-environmental behavior is crucial for solving environmental degradation issues (Biggar and Ardoin 2017; Ernst and Theimer 2011). Experts believe that environmental education (EE) for youth is a key factor in mitigating this dire scenario (Barrera-Hernández et al. 2020). Research shows that connecting children and adults with the natural environment is a powerful environmental sustainability intervention (Martin et al. 2020). Additionally, studies show that nature connectedness is positively correlated to well-being, further reinforcing the power of this intervention to influence ecological change (Barrable and Booth 2020).
