The generation of municipal solid waste has been increasing in recent decades. This, coupled with inadequate management of these wastes has contributed to the worsening of environmental problems. However, in recent years many countries have begun to improve their systems for solid waste management. One of the techniques that public bodies are using to reduce the total solid waste that are managed by them, is the development and application of environmental education projects in the community, encouraging environmentally sound waste management practices. Thus, this study aimed to apply educational activities aimed at environmental education in a public school in the municipality of Mandirituba / PR as a method for minimization and recycling of municipal solid waste. For this, first a diagnosis of environmental perception of students studying at the college in relation to solid waste was conducted; and following the following activities were developed: an interactive lecture, a scavenger hunt, a competition of collecting recyclable waste, construction and installation of colored collectors, and the exposure of panels, all these activities aimed at environmental awareness regarding waste minimization solids. Diagnosis of environmental perception of students, it was noted that, in general, students showed an incipient environmental perception, because no answer to some questions; and was not perceived an awareness in all individuals of the community, and many do not realize the separation and proper disposal of solid waste; also realized the importance of the school as a vehicle for knowledge building and is considered the most suitable for the development of strategies for environmental education environment. During the campain, it was noticed that the students showed interest in the subject, interacting with the speaker; after the lecture and the gymkhana, felt an improvement in the perception of students regarding solid waste such as reinforced knowledge and techniques related to selective collection of solid waste reduction; opinions on the importance of waste separation were exposed; and ideas to promote minimizing the generation of solid waste were presented. The competition for collecting recyclable waste promoted student interaction with the environment in which passes your day-to-day, which can lead you to treasure this space. The construction and installation of the colored collectors sparked the interest of the students for the separation and recycling of waste. The panels exposed disclose the information and contribute to the process of sensitization of individuals. Thus, the activities provided the sensitivity and awareness of the students as the most sustainable practices in solid waste generation. The playful character embedded in these activities provided a more appropriate sensitization, as it allowed the development of knowledge in an enjoyable way. |
