Abstract

Environmental education is planned community education to protect the environment. Environmentalism can be taught in schools. Environmental education supports the national goal of building a society with environmental awareness, knowledge, skills, and values to solve environmental issues. Environmental education is crucial. Teachers who can teach about environmental sustainability can have a big impact on students, but if not, the next generation will struggle to address it. Environmental education can be taught using existing materials and staff. Teacher environmental awareness and attitude affect their capacity to teach environmental education. A teacher's positive attitude toward environmental protection affects student learning through explicit or implicit conduct and speech language.

Environmental education supports the national goal of building a society with environmental awareness, knowledge, skills, and values to solve environmental issues.
