Abstract

The challenge in protecting the earth from environmental damage is increasing along with the increasing population, advances in industrial technology, and minimal environmental awareness from the community. Technological advances need to be balanced with awareness of protecting the environment systematically. This publication has the theme “Green Schools and the Environment”. The importance of this theme is based on the fact that although Indonesia has a high potential for biodiversity and renewable energy spread throughout Indonesia, the green school curriculum that provides education for children since elementary school has not been massively implemented by the Indonesian people. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and literature studies. The results of the study conclude that Indonesia needs to create a green school curriculum since basic education and insert special subjects on environmental sustainability in every school at all levels, especially elementary schools as a provision for children from an early age.
