O Ensino de Biologia aplicado a ética ambiental à luz da bibliografia

Abstract

Environmental ethics plays an important role in shaping a more environmentally conscious society. This study aims to analyze how articles in the field of biology, produced in the last five years (2020-2025), have dealt with issues related to environmental ethics. As for the methodology employed, this research falls within the bibliographic scope, using as criteria the search for articles in the electronic database of the Portal de Periódicos da Capes, using the expression “Environmental ethics”. In this regard, authors such as Vasquez (2003), Mata and Cavalcante (2020) emphasize the importance of the study for the subject addressed. As for the results, a total of 17 articles were found, which underwent a pre-analysis that followed the defined inclusion criteria. The growing demand to study environmental issues in today's world is notorious. Biology teaching is an important ally in encouraging production in this field, since the academic environment can play an essential role in this regard. Therefore, there must be a broadening of the discussion within the field of study, from debates on Environmental Education to those focused on Biology teaching.
