Abstract
Environmental awareness is a complex construct of knowledge, addressed by different sciences, such as: social, economic, political, etc., but it is not yet understood or understood in its correct dimension. The objective of this state of the art is to describe the extent to which environmental awareness in education has been investigated, specifically in primary and secondary school students in different countries. The method used is the collection, analysis and interpretation of all the scientific literature found during the study. Thus, 30 articles were analyzed in different indexed databases, on components, strategies, programs and levels of environmental awareness. Likewise, the theme, method, sample, instruments and results were considered. The data were treated through descriptive statistics and qualitative software. The results obtained on the environmental awareness of primary and secondary education students presented categories such as: (1) Climate conservation, (2) Biodiversity conservation, (3) Biodiversity protection, (4) Land protection, (5) Water conservation, and (6) High level of environmental awareness.
