Answer
Three ways by which environmental values and ethics can be developed in people are:
Through Value Education — Value education in schools and colleges can inculcate environmental values in students. Planned educational programmes can develop right values, proper attitudes and sound character. Students should be taught about the importance of conserving natural resources, reducing pollution and respecting nature.
Through Practical Implementation of 5 R's — Practising the 5 R's (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Refuse, Repair) in daily life develops environmental ethics. For example, using cloth bags instead of plastic, reusing containers, recycling paper, refusing single-use items and repairing instead of discarding all build a sense of environmental responsibility.
Through Awareness Campaigns and Community Participation — Public awareness through mass media (TV, radio, newspapers), eco-clubs, Earth Day, World Environment Day, Van Mahotsava, exhibitions and NGO programmes helps develop ethical environmental consciousness. Participating in tree plantation drives, cleanliness campaigns and recycling activities instils environmental values. Movements like Chipko Andolan and Narmada Bachao Andolan inspire people to value and protect the environment.

Case Study
The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) under the Department of Consumer Affairs has notified 'Guidelines for Prevention of Misleading Advertisements and Endorsements for Misleading Advertisements, 2022' with an objective to curb misleading advertisements and protect consumers, who may be exploited or affected by such advertisements.
Keeping in view the sensitiveness and vulnerability of children and severe impact advertisements make on the younger minds, several preemptive provisions have been laid down on advertisements targeting children. Guidelines say that advertisement targeting children shall not feature any personalities from the field of sports, music or cinema and products which under any law require a health warning for such advertisement or cannot be purchased by children.
