The purpose of the Study is to search for the opinions and attitudes of a group of students from The Science and Art Center about their value of love of nature. It is about to take action towards social and environmental problems. The purpose of this abstract is to raise consciousness about preserving natural habitats.

Data collection was used to research about the love of nature scale by detecting attitudes of the students in regard of the value of love of nature and also they have to present reports to make clear the kind of activities they were doing. Data analysis used The Mann-Whitney U Test to find on the attitudes of experimental and control group students about the value of love of nature.

The result of the study is that students learned about the value of love of nature by practicing in real life situations because loving the nature is important and students now are taking care of our environment.

The conclusion is that students now know that taking care of the planet is necessary to have a better world and it must be like a kind of subject to teach how to protect our planet but some schools have to take action and teach their children how to make a better world.
