Giving importance to the questions presented to educators, and considering the specificities of contemporary society very signaled by capitalism. Disagreements about environmental questioning occasionally reach the level of education at all levels of competence. The theme of environmental preservation is not just a didactic-pedagogical provocation that has been addressed by many educators, but concerns a much broader question. The article aims to address the emergence of the widening of the debate, which provides an approach to essential themes, discussed in the realm of politics, economics, and sociology. In this conjuncture that Environmental Education presents itself as an indispensable resource, forming an environmental awareness in society and the ability to impact the understanding of the environmental issue for a development that not only observes the uncontrolled economic, but an example that includes society, without losing sight of environmental maintenance. The research was conducted from the analysis of the conditions of the environmental problem, and from the study of the process of incorporating the environmental theme in the disciplines of social sciences. As a result, the environmental crisis is understood as another symptom of the crisis of modernity, which manifests itself not only through environmental mismatch, but also through the worsening of social, political and economic problems.
