Eco Art in School: Integration of art, nature and education
Environment is key to our life. Even in school these days, teachers try to encourage theirstudents to respect nature and preserve all recycled products in their most simple way. For example, shoebox could be used as storages for your things. Just wrap the shoebox with fancy papers or even newspaper, you already have cute storages in your classroom or room and save some money.
This fusion of art and nature would actually enhance your curiosity and creativity. Just imagine your used toilet rolls could be transformed into “beautiful bee”.
This is the time to take environment and recycling seriously. We have the habits to fill the trashcan or throw things out, taking things for granted. Through Eco art, we together could help improve the environment, and in the same improve our creativity! 
Indonesia’s future is based on our present’s action. Students should have the creativity and students have every right to be closed to art and nature as sources of inspiration.
Eco art could increase our interest in art, science, social, geography, culture, and local tradition. It even could induce entrepreneurial skill, because recycled Eco Art products could be commercialized. Envision the relation with nature, would help us become more educated and appreciate what we have.
Students, parents, and teachers could integrate Eco art activities. Later, the school could do some Eco art exhibition at the end of a term. All would be proud.
