Environmental Education: a Way to Favor a Healthy Life style

Abstract

In today’s world, environmental education has become an efficient and systematic way of contemporary society for the conservation and development of its lifestyle, beginning with the formation of feelings, emotions, attitudes, values and ways of behavior. Nevertheless, it has been observed that there are still insufficiencies in environmental education for the formation of a professional capable of transforming educational reality. Reflections are offered around a methodological alternative to contribute to environmental education in the present conditions of the Scientific and Technological Revolution to favor a healthy lifestyle. Empirical methods like interview and survey were used, as well as theoretical methods such as analysis-synthesis, induction-deduction and documental analysis. On the bases of this work, a proposal is offered for an environmental education that favors a healthy lifestyle in the students.
