The educational movement that relates social and environmental aspects to collaborate in the formation of a global, ecologically responsible and socially just citizenship, has been referred to as Environmental Education.
The new international scenarios erase the hegemonic discourse of Environmental Education as a reference, and seek alternatives and create uncertain advances.
The speech of sustainability as weak as malleable does not manage to dethrone the already mature educational movement. Environmental Education exists because there are groups that resist. Groups of teachers and teachers in schools, teachers and students at universities, politicians and politicians in local and national administrations, social organizations in municipalities, international organizations in debates... and many people in the day to day demonstrate the need for education committed to People and the environment, far from developmental models that undermine the possibilities of a just and equitable human development.
In this ambientalMENTE sustentable number we offer reflections, challenges and proposals to promote public policies of Environmental Education, committed practices and transformations from the local with a global perspective. The Terra Planet deserves, people too.
