Abstract

Understanding environmental education requires the sequential and historical interconnection of understanding education in its genesis and continuous and progressive formulation in the West. This article explores the configuration of environmental education in order to place it in the risk society, taking into account the existing problems and complexities. The configuration and contextualization applied to risk management integrated with environmental education were analysed based on the critical propositional method. This article argues for the inability of binary models to respond or support risk management. The application of fuzzy logic is articulated in the conclusion and proposition for the purposes of formulating and implementing risk management, considering the complicated situations of the risk society. In this way, components such as uncertainty, indeterminacy and cloudiness are not ignored, but internalized in risk management.
