Synopsis

Environmental Education in the Anthropocene explores how education can address the environmental crisis by combining theory, pedagogy, and practice.

With a global perspective and local adaptability, the book offers case studies, strategies, and a roadmap for fostering sustainability education, empowering readers to drive change for future generations.
