Cartographies of Belonging and Environmental Education: Experiences of Park Rangers in Pedra Selada State Park (RJ)
type: item
description: This article, derived from doctoral research, examines how park rangers at Pedra Selada State Park (RJ) build affective and territorial bonds with the Conservation Unit. Inspired by the humanist turn in Geography, the study emphasizes subjective experiences and the meanings attributed to space. Methodology included action research, discussion circles, multisensory workshops, and participatory affective cartography, analyzed with Atlas.ti. Results highlight five main themes: affective and symbolic territories; childhood memories; multisensory Environmental Education practices; tensions between local knowledge and institutional recognition; and co-authorship. A key practical outcome was the creation of an affective itinerary co-designed with the rangers. Findings show that their experiences are essential to strengthening critical Environmental Education and participatory management. The study concludes that valuing these actors, grounded in decolonial theories, contributes to more just and sustainable protected areas.

Eco-friendly bags: a survey explores the opinion of reverse logistics from the perspective of wholesale retail chain customers
type: item
description: In recent years, sustainability has gained prominence in various fields of knowledge and organizations. Consumers and businesses face a growing need to adopt practices that reduce the negative environmental impacts of their activities. Sustainability, therefore, has become a crucial element, offering opportunities in the market. Awareness about sustainable development, especially in consumer behavior, is essential for environmental preservation. A research project in this context aims to understand consumers' knowledge about sustainable practices, especially related to reverse and green logistics, through the use of reusable bags in wholesale chains in Gama-DF. The research was conducted in wholesale supermarket chains located in the Administrative Region of Gama, Federal District (Ultrabox, Super Adega and Atacadão), during the months of October and November 2024. The target audience of the study was composed of consumers of these chains who use reusable bags or bags made of durable and sustainable materials. This is a basic research, of an exploratory and descriptive nature, with a quantitative approach. The data collection instrument was a questionnaire applied to consumers who use reusable and/or sustainable bags. Consumers who were using a reusable bag were included in the sample. From the application of the questionnaire, it was possible to characterize the consumers of these wholesale chains in Gama - DF. The research reveals limited knowledge about reverse and green logistics among participants, with 54.7% and 58.12% being unaware of the concepts, respectively. The survey results reveal a scenario of partial knowledge and selective awareness among consumers. This information gap prevents individuals from understanding the central role of reverse and green logistics in combating environmental degradation, highlighting the need for educational initiatives to address this knowledge gap.

Environmental Education Practices in the management of residential organic waste during the pandemic
type: item
description: In view of the increase in the generation of urban solid waste, intensified by disorderly population growth, domestic composting presents itself as a sustainable alternative for treating the organic fraction of this waste. This research aimed to evaluate the composting of organic solid waste in the residential environment, associating it with the production of cabbage seedlings, with an emphasis on environmental education as a tool for raising awareness and transforming everyday practices. The study was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, using home composting and horticulture as educational tools and sustainable practices that promote physical, mental, and socio-environmental well-being. Composting was carried out over 120 days in a mini designed composter, with subsequent application of the compost in the cultivation of seedlings of Brassica oleracea var. costata (stalked kale). The experiment was set up in trays with fifteen cells, in a completely randomized design, with five treatments and three replicates, varying the proportions of soil and compost. Agronomic parameters such as germination time, number and length of leaves, seedling height, root length, and collar diameter were evaluated. In addition to the agronomic results, the experiment demonstrated strong educational potential, arousing the interest of participants, promoting environmental learning, and encouraging sustainable practices in the home context.

Perceptions of a rural community in the Western Amazon about non charismatic animal
type: item
description: This study assessed the environmental perception of a rural community regarding non-charismatic animals, a group associated with negative perceptions and hostile actions. The results indicated that snakes were the most frequently reported animals, while species such as tucandeira, butterfly and mambira were less frequently reported. The majority (83%) preferred to adopt lethal actions, with fear being the main motivation. Despite ecological recognition, 98% of respondents did not consider them relevant in domestic environments. This reinforces the importance of environmental education to demystify negative perceptions and foster more sustainable and conscious attitudes towards the conservation of non-charismatic fauna.

Environmental Education as a possible solution for reducing microplastic products – case study: Rio Pomba - Santo Antônio de Pádua/RJ
type: item
description: Anthropogenic actions are increasingly increasing the degradation of the environment. With the advent of plastic and its constant use in the industrialization process, it is clear that a problem has arisen. Rivers receive loads of industrial and domestic effluents saturated with small plastic particles, called microplastics (MPs). The purpose of this work is to awaken interest in the local community in getting to know the Pomba river basin a little more, and to raise awareness through Environmental Education among the population to discuss possible impacts of solid waste, with microplastics being the object of study in the section of the Pomba river, located in Santo Antônio de Pádua-RJ.

Environmental education: political and pedagogical issues
type: item
description: The intensive exploitation of natural resources has increased environmental impacts, making Environmental Education (EE) essential for fostering critical awareness and promoting sustainable practices. This article analyzes EE concepts from a political and educational perspective, aiming to understand the influence of public policies, legal frameworks, and socio-environmental movements on educational processes. In Brazil, a conservative approach predominates, influenced by neoliberal policies, which limits the effectiveness of transformative EE. Despite the legal framework that mandates the inclusion of environmental topics in education, its implementation remains limited, highlighting the need to strengthen critical pedagogical practices aligned with sustainability.

Critical environmental education through audiovisual media: environmental cinema as a tool for awareness and improvement
type: item
description: This article aims to analyze the potential of environmental cinema as a practice of critical environmental education. It is based on the extension project entitled “Teacher development for critical environmental education through ecocinema”. The project aimed to promote reflection among educators on environmental issues and encourage environmental cinema as a pedagogical practice. The text discusses how the use of films and documentaries can contribute to the process of raising awareness of the complexity and emergence of the environmental crisis. Audiovisual media has its own language capable of connecting theories, practices, knowledge and emotions and can therefore promote ecopolitical awareness. The method consisted of selecting documentaries and films with socio-environmental significance and collectively discussing their content with the help of a supporting bibliography. Based on the meetings held, it was concluded that environmental cinema, in addition to diversifying pedagogical practices aimed at raising awareness, has a great capacity to exercise critical thinking and awaken students to practices committed to socio-environmental sustainability. However, its effectiveness depends on the mediation of debates, the intersection between different fields and a careful selection of works and authors. It also depends on a reflective and emancipatory perspective that goes beyond the reductionist and technical approach, incapable of containing the complexity of contemporary environmental dilemmas.

THE PRESENCE OF THE POLITICAL DIMENSION IN CONTINUING TRAINING RESEARCH IN ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze research addressing the continuing education of teachers in Environmental Education (EE), focusing on the presence of the political dimension in the educational process. Adopting a descriptive and explanatory approach, this qualitative research used the database of the EArte Project (2018 to 2020) as a source of consultation. It was found that most studies presented a theoretical recognition of the political dimension, but without demonstrating the practical application of this dimension in the developed educational processes. These results highlight the need to strengthen the epistemological foundations of EE and the importance of integrating political, knowledge, ethical, and aesthetic value dimensions in the continuing education of teachers.

PERSPECTIVES OF YOUTH AND ADULT EDUCATION (EJA) STUDENTS ON CLIMATE CHANGE
type: item
description: Our objective is to identify what knowledge EJA students have about Climate Change and its relationship with Environmental Education. A questionnaire with an intersubjective analysis was used and responses were collected from students in two Brazilian cities. The textual productions of the questionnaires were the research corpus that was evaluated by discursive textual analysis. The results demonstrated that participants have some knowledge about the topic, acquired in classes and through print and televised media. However, we conclude that more information on the topic is needed to adjust these students' knowledge, as they are considered important environmental agents in their communities.

ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION AT SCHOOLS FROM A HISTORICAL-CRITICAL PERSPECTIVE: AN INTERVENTION IN HIGH SCHOOL
type: item
description: Teaching work for environmental education (EE) is necessary to understand the socio-environmental crisis. Thus, this study sought to verify actions and forms of developing EE in a public high school, also the conception of EE by teachers and coordinators, what are the sources of information and the interference of high school curricular proposals in carrying out school EE. Data were obtained by applying questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The results showed environmental visions and actions aligned with the ideals of behavioral changes, without explaining the determining factors of socio-environmental problems, separating society from nature. It is concluded that despite having EA in the school, there is a need to qualify it and improve teaching work.

Environmental perception of elementary school students from public schools of Franca - SP in the zoobothanical garden
type: item
description: This paper discusses children's environmental perception through drawings that seek to show how each child perceives the environment around them. This study included the participation of 97 children visiting the Zoobotanical Garden of Franca, SP, aged between 9 and 12 years. We observed a large number of drawings that refer to a romanticized view of nature, also showing indications that these children do not feel part of the environment, which leads to a conservative view of it. These results corroborate those of other authors, indicating the importance of developing work with teachers, in the form of training or continuing education.

Um diagnóstico de indícios de ambientalização da Educação Infantil
type: item
description: This article presents an excerpt from a doctoral thesis that investigated the transition process toward Sustainable Educational Spaces (SES) in Early Childhood Education. The research, with a qualitative and documental approach, used as its corpus the municipality’s Curricular Proposal and eight Political-Pedagogical Projects (PPPs) from public Early Childhood Education institutions in Porto Belo/SC, totaling nine documents analyzed. The study employed MAXQDA 2022 software to perform lexical analysis and thematic coding, based on 82 terms and 82 subterms extracted from the DCNEA (2012) to map signs of environmentalization. It is concluded that environmentalization is a dynamic process, requiring collective involvement, critical reflection, and curricular restructuring to consolidate educational practices oriented toward sustainability.

Experiencing otherness as ethnic-racial and environmental education: multiplying natures in school
type: item
description: This article describes the potential of a school garden, in which students engaged with the indigenous concept of Tekoha. In an education for ethnic-racial and environmental relations, the objective was to analyze how experiences with alterity contribute to initiating "ecological paths", expanding realities with different natures from that incorporated via colonial thought. These paths were activated by the encounter with the Guarani-Kaiowa culture, developing a view of the students to coexistence, in the form of an understanding of the Earth as a participant and not just a scenario of human actions. The pedagogical practices sought a new attitude regarding the stereotypes formulated about the indigenous people, and the initiation to care and diversity as skills, based on the affirmation of one's own belonging to the school territory, as well as the recognition of multiple ways of belonging to it and to the planet.

PERMACULTURAL EXPERIENCE ONTO SCHOOL CONTEXT UNDER THE COMPLEXITY VIEW
type: item
description: The article reports on a permaculture experience in a school context, addressing the climate emergency through environmental education (EE) from the perspective of Edgar Morin's complexity. The research involved students from a public school and adopted a theoretical-practical approach, based on Mollison and Holmgren”s (1986) permacultural principles. In addition to technical knowledge, a sense of belonging and teamwork was developed. The integration between permaculture and complexity in EE projects has shown itself as a promising path for the realization of a resilient society capable of facing current socio-environmental problems.
