Abstract
The stone-age man has over a period of time, succeeded in landing over moon. Knowledge and technology have changed the outlook of the century. Life has become smoother and safe due to the inventions and the creative work in all the fields of life such as science, art, music, literature, technology and so on. The credit for this goes to the divine power of creativity of the society at large and individual. The famous Presidential Address of Guilford (1950) at American Psychological Association was as a matter of fact, a milestone in the direction of creativity research. He said, “We must look well beyond the boundaries of I Q, if we are to fathom the domain of creativity?” Gilford’s address gave a momentum to the movement of creativity. Creativity is the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others and entertaining ourselves and others. Environmental Awareness envisions the increasing of awareness and understanding of the environment through education. Most of our population is not aware of our finite resources and about how quickly they are being used up. Awareness means having knowledge or cognizance. The main goal of many environmental groups today is to increase awareness because that is the only way to develop a more sustainable world. Accordingly, all environmental awareness must begin with education.
