Environmental Education and cultural preservation in Central America. Traducción española :Proyecto Media Ambiental de Educación, Guatemala.
Development is rapidly contributing to the loss of indigenous cultures and languages, in addition to contributing to environmental devastation throughout central and south America . Western societies such as the EU and USA have become established upon a few centuries of trade and economic relations with developing countries.
