Environmental education (EE) plays a pivotal role in fostering sustainable behaviors among
individuals and communities. This paper explores the significance of environmental
education in promoting sustainable practices, particularly in the context of global challenges
such as climate change, resource depletion, and pollution. By reviewing key literature, the
paper highlights how EE contributes to the development of eco-friendly attitudes,
knowledge, and behaviors that can lead to positive environmental impacts. Additionally, it
discusses the importance of integrating EE into formal and informal education systems, along
with the challenges and strategies for effectively enhancing sustainability awareness.
