Starting them young is definitely the way forward. I believe many adults are apathetic toward green issues, so they never encourage the kids. We need schools to show the next generation how useful recycling and ecology can be for all of us.
If the young uns can see the importance in being green, then they’ll carry it forward better than us oldies ever will :-)
