This article aims to analyze the repercussions of the Covid-19 pandemic crisis and conservative policies on Environmental Education currently. Critical arguments, therefore, deal with the Covid-19 pandemic crisis, the socio-environmental crisis and the movement of conservative Public Policies in the Environmental Education. The role of the Research Group on Environmental Education, Public Policies and Social Management of Territories (GEPET) in the defense of Environmental Education and the emphasis on the State's interests, in relation to Environmental Education policies, are the references that guide the investigation. The study used Content Analysis based on Bardin (2016), to understand categories under investigation. Thus, dialogues were established with Pinto (1979), Lima (2004), Sorrentino (2005), Layrargues (2012), Loureiro (2012), Saito (2012), Velasco (2012), Mutim (2018), among others. This text concludes that reflection and action on the paths that need to be taken by Public, Policies, and education in the socio-environmental field during the pandemic crisis are important for the organization and planning of the post-pandemic and in order to resolve contemporary socio-environmental conflicts.
