ronment, and how to appre-
ciate it, and that is very im-
portant."
Knowing that the Arab
sector had to be introduced
to touring and land ap-
preciation differently from
Jewish Israelis, the society
approached Israeli Arabs in
a new way. Instead of ap-
pealing directly to the peo-
ple, the society, together
with the Ministry of Edu-
cation, decided to offer the
courses to Arab teachers,
who would in turn pass what
they learn on to their pupils.
The courses are free of
charge, but still involve
some expense on the part of
the teachers.
"But it is worth it," said
Sadequ Jibarim, who is now
taking his third course. "I
can now see how the modern
society has influenced the
nature around me, and
sometimes ruined it, but I
have also learned how to
prevent the serious
damage."
Five years ago, the Society
for the Protection of Nature
opened its Baka al-Gharbiya
Information and Counseling
Bureau, the first such office
in an Arab area. After the
success of the bureau, where
local citizens can receive
general information about
the area, help with planning
tours and excursions, and
even assistance in ordering
rooms in hotels or field
schools, the society opened
two more this year — in
Sakhnin and Taiba - and has
plans for another two, in
Shfaram and Nazareth.
Samir Darwish, in his se-
cond term as mayor of Baka
al-Gharbiya, says he is very
happy with the bureau in his
town, and says he can see a
great difference in his con-
stituents' way of traveling.
"Before, we used to go on
tours, but the important
thing then was the goal, not
the tour itself," he said.
Now, however, even though
the goal is still important,
"we emphasize also the
route we take, and what we
see on way," he explained.
But the Society for Protec-
tion of the Nature has addi-
tional subjects on its agenda
for the Arab population of
Israel. The environmental
dangers of today, which have
become such big political
and social issues in the
Western world, have not
taken root yet in Israeli
society, especially in the
Arab sector, said Gazawi. "We
have to stop the environmen-
tal damage done by the
residents, and teach them
how to take care of the
beautiful land and nature
around them." 0
