ABSTRACT
Implementation of environmental education is an important policy to preserve the environment.
The authors believe that stakeholders’ involvement is significant for the long-term sustainability
of ecological and conservation efforts. The purpose of the study was to discuss the commitment of
environmentally sound education policymakers to preserve the environment. We have searched and
analyzed data from many published books, environmental journals, and environmental education
documents from international ecological journals that actively discuss the issue, including Elsevier
Publications, ERIC, Sagepub, Google Books, and websites. The data we collected was then analyzed
under a phenomenological approach, an effort to understand the issues as much data as possible. We
involve data coding, evaluation, interpretation, and conclusion to answer research problems with high
validity and reliability principles. We searched our data electronically by embedding keywords for the
theme of this study. We also visited some schools to collect data about educational policy regarding
environmental framework policy. Based on available data and discussion of research results, there is
a very close relevance between environmental education policies in schools, individual attitudes,
community behavior, and industrial behavior to preserve a sustainable healthy environment. These
findings will be essential for developing a healthy environment for future studies, academic studies,
policy-making, and environmental implementation in protecting the environment.
