En la actualidad, muchos países enfrentan múltiples problemas relacionados con la conciencia ambiental y el cuidado del medio ambiente. En 2015, la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas estableció, a través de la Agenda 2030, un total de 17 Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible para lograr un futuro más sostenible para todas las sociedades. Este artículo es un estudio de caso sobre la relación entre la ética ambiental y la responsabilidad ambiental (o comportamiento) entre los estudiantes jóvenes en Israel. La pregunta básica de este estudio de caso fue si y en qué medida los valores ambientales influyen en el desarrollo de la responsabilidad ambiental. El objetivo principal de este estudio es ofrecer a los estudiantes la oportunidad de participar en experiencias al aire libre, aprender sobre principios ecológicos y desarrollar un entendimiento de su relación y su papel dentro de la naturaleza a través de este estudio. El problema es que se desconocía si los estudiantes estaban aprendiendo (o aprendiendo suficientemente) en las excursiones realizadas actualmente. Específicamente, se han examinado los cambios en la conciencia ambiental entre los participantes de noveno grado (N= 40) en el Centro de Visitantes de Hiriya, el hito de la basura en Israel, tomando una excursión a dicho centro. El principal resultado fue un mayor conocimiento de los estudiantes sobre conceptos ambientales y conciencia del entorno local con mejoras significativas. También se encontró que un año después de la excursión, los estudiantes recordaban lo que habían visto y escuchado y habían desarrollado una actitud proambiental percibida hacia el medio ambiente y se convirtieron en agentes de cambio hacia el medio ambiente en comparación con un grupo de control (N = 30 estudiantes) que no había manifestado ninguna responsabilidad ambiental en actividades ambientales adicionales.
