In Taiwan, the Environmental Education Act (EEA) has been implemented for four years since 2011. The purpose of legislating EEA is to promote people understanding the interdependence among individual, society and environment, promoting humans environmental ethics and sponsibility,maintaining the ecological balance of environment, respecting for life,
promoting the social justice, and finally achieving sustainable development.
In recent years, the conflicts between economic development and
ecological conservation in Kinmen County were more and more serious. In
addition to the issue of habitat destruction for horseshoe crabs, Eurasian otter's
survival has become the new focused issue. However, since Kinmen County is
an island close to Mainland China, which has been subject to military control
for several decades of years. Especially, after the lifting of martial law great
impact of tourism and development were brought into this small island, and
thus the original natural and cultural environment were well protected.
This project executing team hosted 77 session environmental education
activities in Kinmen County, which attracted 10,069 people to participate in
those activities in the year of 2014. The activities were focused on marine
environment education and citizen participation in environmental issues. It was
hoped to implement such kinds of environmental education activities to
encourage people in Kinmen achieving marine environmental protection and
citizen participation. Through the activities feedback forms, we observed that
the majority of residents in Kinmen County were still very concerned about the
original culture and environment. However, due to the influence of simple folk
culture in Kingmen County, the majority of residents were still reluctant to
present their views in public place.
