Educação ambiental “educação necessária”

Abstract

Education transmits the training and information for the development of critical consciousness about environmental issues and activities that lead to community participation in preserving the environmental balance. The current generation has witnessed an intense technological progress that causes serious consequences for life on the planet. In recent years experienced concern about the degradation and depletion of natural resources rather than just the theme of environmental movements and starting to take priority over society. Thus, and with a great role to play as environmental educators, teachers should work with the education of conscience, facing life care in all its forms, places and time, after all we are all part of the Environment. There is a link at all. We are all responsible for bui lding a word that is socially just and ecologically balanced. Thus, this paper aims to show the importance of environmental education in simple contexts so that we can as disseminating agents of a new society work interesting pedagogical practices from literature searches, seeking interesting and motivating teaching practices around the subject area teachers to assist in the preparation and development activities aimed at motivating and critical awareness of elementary school students.
