Abstract

The performance of Environmental Education in a business context plays a fundamental role in the development of a society. It may directly influence pollution prevention, impact mitigation, cost reduction and environmental damage control in general, besides improving the company’s image in the consumer market. This study aims at describing the outline of an Environmental Education program which was implemented by a company located in Cariacica, ES, Brazil. The objective of this program was the cooperation among company-school-community during the 3-year implementation process. Since then, it has contributed to develop and improve the quality of life in this Brazilian city.
