Abstract

Environmental sustainability through effective teaching of Christian moral education is a search for the role of moral and Christian education in preservation of man’s environment. The study revealed that God created man and put him incharge of other creatures and man’s inability to preserve the environment has been highlighted as major cause of environmental degradation. However, the study provided that effective teaching of Christian moral education in schools could help in control of the problem. Three principles were highlighted to serve as guide to preservation of man and his environment. The researcher however, is optimistic that effective teaching of Christian moral education in schools would equip future generation with better understanding of environmental preservation and hence sustainability of man’s environment will be achieved.
