Utilização do Storytelling como ferramenta de educação ambiental aplicada às disciplinas de ciências da natureza na educação básica

Abstract

The contemporary world has a society with consumerist habits, based on an increasingly exaggerated economic system of production and consumption; However, due to today's consumer model, there is concern about environmental degradation. This is a process of reducing renewable potentials, affecting the environmental balance of fauna and flora, especially with the degradation of soil and water resources, indispensable not only for our survival but also for the entire ecosystem of the planet, without which future generations will be doomed to environmental chaos. In this sense, especially in large urban centers, social and environmental issues arise, for which economic development must be generated without negatively impacting biodiversity. Often, the indiscriminate disposal of solid waste in urban centers, generating waste accumulation everywhere, affecting natural and renewable resources, causing water, soil and air pollution among other types. This paper aims to investigate the state of the art in the literature regarding the use of Storytelling to make an approach on the importance of environmental education in the disciplines of the areas of nature sciences of basic education, aiming to sensitize the public of urban centers about the importance of preservation and environmental conservation, as well as the proper disposal of solid waste and all types of urban waste. There will be a bibliographic research about the theme and an analysis of the current didactic process of schools about environmental education and environmental awareness, focusing on the proper disposal of solid waste from urban spaces without harming the environment.
