Abstract
This study examines the role of the mass media in bringing about increased consciousness about the environment. There is no doubt that man is environment-dependent; therefore, there is the need for man to be environment conscious for his today and tomorrow. The study advocates a more organized, purposeful, and co-coordinated mass media approach to bring about increased consciousness and awareness, education and knowledge about the environment
