2. Mandatory Environmental Education - Governments can enforce environmental education by enacting laws that require a certain number of hours of instruction on environmental protection.
3. Sustainable Facilities - Creating eco-friendly facilities demonstrates how to create sustainable buildings using clean resources like hydro-powered generators, bamboo, and solar panels.
Industry Implications
