The preservation of the environment is one of the most relevant issues today. In view of new concerns and positive perspectives regarding the adoption of sustainable development policies, it is necessary that environmental education be treated in the daily life of individuals from a young age, thus contributing to the construction of habits and attitudes of preservation of quality of the environment to which they are inserted. This article aims to highlight how the environmental education implanted in the Crê-Ser Foundation in João Monlevade-MG, contributed to raising awareness and awareness among students. For the development of the research, we used data obtained through bibliographical research and methodologically planned meetings at the foundation, where we sought to transmit information in a playful way, from the wheels of conversations and interactive activities. With the data obtained in the foundation it was possible to perceive a cleaner and more organized environment, besides changes of behavior, that contribute to a better quality of life. Environmental Education is effective in training individuals, making them reflect and acquire knowledge about environmental practices and ways of minimizing environmental damage.
Environmental issues are often being discussed in society. The Environmental Education implemented in schools appears to be as an important educational tool, which seeks to raise awareness and stimulate the student to look around and feel an integral part of this environment, also contributing to the improvement of the quality of life, as well as the training of citizens aware. The BIOEDUCA project involved 55 students from the 2nd to 5th year of the Municipal School "Rosina Rodrigues Soares Silva" in the municipality of Barão de Cocais - MG. The environmental theme was approached in a dynamic and interactive way with the children, through lectures, group dynamics and practical activities aiming at the knowledge about the preservation of natural resources, the 3Rs and cycles of the materials. The students demonstrated interest and behavior change during the development of the work. The educational action demonstrated effectiveness in the transference of concepts about the environment and sustainability.
