The concluding remarks state that "The environmental problems in Japan until about twenty year ago were almost limited to the local-scale environmental pollution. It is in the last twenty years in Japan that the growth and expansion becomes to be pronounced in the thought of environmental conservation. The environment in this case is equivalent to nature in meaning. The thought of “ conservation and protection of nature ” now becomes to be a universal consensus of all Japanese. It is not too much to say that not a day passes that any mass medium does never report such a sort of environmental topics".

"Moreover,  the paradigm of the research and education on the environmental problem has been changed from the local environmental pollution to the conservation of global environment in almost all Japanese universities. The conservation of nature and global environment now becomes to be one of the slogans common to all universities to such an extent that their direction in research and education can be almost expressed by a few key words such as “ environment ” , and “ international ” and “ information ” , the latter two being the other prevalent thoughts at present. The environmental cognition of Japanese students has grown up under such a condition of social environment ."

On the other hand in Jordan , the problem on the environment can be said to be in the intermingled state of the local-scale environmental pollution and the global environmental problems. Moreover in Jordan , information environment made by the news media is considerably weak not only in the field of environmental problems but in almost all fields. The environmental thought follows, in general, an Islamic doctrine so that the environmental problems are mainly interpreted according to the Islamic education. Such difference in the society, the culture and the educational system between Jordan and Japan possibly lead the difference in the environmental cognition of the students.

To consider the environmental problems in respective society, and to research them and to educate students in the university, the methodology intrinsic to each society must be searched and established. The result of our survey is hoped to offer one of the fundamental data for that purpose.
