Questionnaire on "revised ecology check" and "Why it is not good" were replied by 273 elementary school children and 527 university students. The results were as follows : 1. The level of "not being king to the earth" of elementary school children is similar to university students. 2. On most items, school children do not realize the reason "Why it is not good" compared with university students. 3. School children's attitude of "not being kind to the earth" is related to the poor understanding of "ecology". 4.
