Accordingly, a diagnosis was made by means of a questionnaire, to ascertain how the public schools of the city of Caçador - SC Environmental Education work, and what the main difficulties are. The application “in loco” of the questionnaire was accompanied by a visitation on school in order to know the context in which they are embedded. It was shown that E.
