Abstract: This article aims at analysing the approach to environmental themes indicated for science teaching according to official curriculum policies in Brazil. It places the reformulation of national curriculum implemented in the decade of 1990 in the context of educational public policies, associating them to the neoliberal reforms carried out in Brazilian contemporaneity. Identifies and discusses the conceptions of Environment and Environmental Education contained in different documents of Brazilian Curriculum Parameters, showing how these parameters comprehend the insertion of environmental topics in the curriculum and science teaching. It also analyses the relationship between Environmental Education and science teaching according to these parameters, concluding on the use of simplification, anthropocentrism and utilitarianism in the environmental themes in science teaching and the fragmentation of the contents of this school subject.

TL;DR: In this article, a philosophical approach to a more consitent foundation of Environmental Education, in order to make possible the improvement of public health in communities through disease-prevention practices, is presented.
Abstract: This paper seeks to contribute with a philosophical approach to a more consitent foundation of Environmental Education, in order to make possible the improvement of public health in communities through disease-prevention practices. Firstly, the text shows the relationship between public health and environmental education; next, it brings a philosophical and historical comprehension of the man-nature relationship, claiming that nature is an intrinsic aspect of the human condition. Lastly, it supports the idea that the emergence of attitudes of human sensitization towards nature is not antagonistic with an ontology that has always been present in human history and that approximates man and physis. The thesis supported in the paper is that the acceptance of human sensibility can bring together three fields of knowledge (public health, environmental education and philosophy) and might be a bridge to restore elements which have been lost, repressed or forgotten with the man-nature split that took place more expressively with modern science, which clearly dichotomized the subject and the object of knowledge.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that we should put more effort into the environmental education of young, school-age children since such efforts will, in the long run, have the greater impact on environmental awareness.
Abstract: Throughout this colloquium reference has been made to a number of environmental problems, most of them due to human activities (e.g. clearing mangrove forests, dynamite fishing, sewage pollution, etc.). While attempts are being made to correct these problems through new legislation and educating adults in more environmentally friendly practices, it is my thesis that we should be putting much more effort into the environmental education of young, school-age children since such efforts will, in the long run, have the greater impact on environmental awareness.
