At the same time, he also put forward new expectations for ecological civilization education, hoping that teachers will take care of children's immaturity like mangroves in future education, so that education will be more in line with children's nature. It is necessary not only to coexist, coexist and share with mangroves, but also to stay, help and look at each other with mangroves.
