Environmental education (EE) refers to organized efforts to teach how natural environments work and, in particular, how humans can manage behavior and ecosystems to live sustainably. It is a multidisciplinary field that integrates disciplines such as biology, chemistry, physics, ecology, earth sciences, atmospheric science, mathematics and geography. The term often implies education within the school system, from primary to postsecondary. However, it sometimes includes all efforts to educate the public and other audiences, including printed material, websites, media campaigns, etc.
Environmental Education is the teaching of individuals and communities in transition to a society aware of the environment and its associated problems, aware of the solutions to these problems and motivated to solve them. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) states that EE is vital to impart an inherent respect for nature between society and to raise public awareness of the environment. UNESCO emphasizes the role of EE in safeguarding the future development of the quality of life in society by protecting the environment, eradicating poverty, minimizing inequalities and ensuring sustainable development .
