Abstract

For a long time, the topic of the environment had been neglected in critical adult education for social change, despite being present in the works of the seminal authors Marx and Freire. Lately, however, scholars have been reflecting on critiques of means of production, consumerism, harmonic relations between humans and nature, and other important subjects within an environmental agenda through community-based, popular, and adult education. Based on perspectives from critical environmental adult education in opposition to a liberal one, this chapter discusses some possibilities that this type of education uncovers to achieve social change around the world through bottom-up approaches.
