Abstract

Integrating environmental education into school curricula has become increasingly essential in addressing global environmental challenges. This article explores various strategies for incorporating environmental aspects across different subjects, highlighting the benefits of such integration. The study emphasizes the importance of a cross-disciplinary approach, utilizing project-based learning (PBL), technological advancements, and partnerships with local environmental organizations to enhance student engagement and understanding. Key findings from recent literature demonstrate that embedding topics like climate change, ecosystems, renewable energy, and biodiversity into science lessons, coupled with real-world data analysis in mathematics and environmental themes in literature and social studies, significantly improves students' critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Moreover, the article underscores the need for professional development for teachers and active community involvement to reinforce the importance of environmental education. The discussion synthesizes the practical implications and potential long-term benefits, advocating for continuous evaluation and adaptation of educational programs. Future research should focus on longitudinal studies to assess the impact of integrated environmental education on students' attitudes and behaviors. The findings support the necessity of a holistic, technology-enhanced, and community-engaged approach to foster a generation of informed, responsible, and proactive individuals prepared to tackle future environmental challenges.
