Özet

Between the living things there has been always an ongoing interaction. Humankind is polluting consciously or unconsciously while interacting within the environment which is surrounding him. Because of the rapidly changing (physical, chemical and biological) ecological events recently in our world, the boost of technological contamination, roughness in technological use, personal or societal insensitivity once have proved how significant the environmental education is. In order to adapt universal environment policies, adjusting your policies in accordance with the technologically improved and advanced countries is a highly considered matter of fact. The states within the integration period of European Union have to incorporate both the universal and the EU Association Agreement criterion for the well-being of their country and the whole world. Hence there has been an increasing concern in environmental education policies; in 2003 after signing the European Union Association Agreement, the syllabus has been enriched in the educational institutions of Turkey. Specifically in the primary level, to be able to create environmental consciousness, the level of "science and technology literacy" is aimed to be elevated. Additionally in professional institutions, universities and with the support of NGOs, there has been a serious attention to ensure that this awareness become widespread. This study aims to investigate the educational system within the perspective of EU integration. The researchers try to find out in which levels of Turkish education environmental education is given and furthermore explores the content of the specified education. Conclusions are drawn from the point of compatibility with the European Union suggestions and norms.
