Book – Educação Ambiental - Environmental Education
We are producing a world that none of us want. A pair of major scientific and technological advances, the human species, experience, a great challenge to their sustainability: the loss of environmental balance, company erosion of cultural, social and economic injustice and violence, as a corollary to their lack of understanding of ethical and spiritual impoverishment, too, the fruit of a type of education that "trains" people to be consumers useful, self-centered and, ignoring the ecological consequences of their actions.
The UN Conference on Environment and Development (Rio 92), recognizes this. In response, representatives of 170 countries, made the Agenda 21, a Plan of Action for the XXI Century, with the objective of promoting sustainable development, the most viable strategy to meet this challenge. It also recognizes that the key challenge for building a sustainable society is education.
Environmental Education was identified as the critical element for the promotion of this new model of development.
Since its conceptual basis known since the conference in Tbilisi (1977), Environmental Education, by their very nature interdisciplinary, holistic and polifacetada will bring together the elements necessary to contribute decisively with the promotion of changes in the route that humanity needs.
This book, a classic reference, the Brazilian environmentalist literature, comprises a set of key information for the promotion of the Environmental Education
In this new edition, revised and expanded, offers, so discussed, the basic texts of major international conferences on Environmental Education, promoted by UNESCO and the United Nations Program for the Environment - UNEP, in Belgrade (1975), Tbilisi (1977 ), Moscow (1987) and Thessaloniki (1997).
Includes conferences and Brazilian national documents crucial to the development of the EA process in the country (history, letters, statements and other).
It offers more than 100 suggestions practices of EA and has several elements to support actions (methodological support, environmental legislation, extensive reference literature, national and international). Get case studies, coupled with other elements to the understanding of environmental issues (chronograph, socioecossistêmica analysis and articles on global environmental change, the ecological footprint, the co-management and sustainability).
Given its wealth of information, it is a work for queries, for all the people who in some way are involved in environmental subjects and more closely with the process of Environmental Education.
