Collapse, Consumerism, Ecosystem, Ethics, ParadigmAbstract
Our ecological reality is marked by socio-environmental collapse, stemming from capitalist consumerism. It is reinforced by way of an anthropocentric banking education, advocating for the separation between human beings and nature. In this context, through the theoretical-conceptual method, we analyze how environmental education for sustainable consumption enables a human stance that combats the contemporary socio-environmental collapse. Thus, the formative characteristics of sustainable consumption are established, which, through the epistemology engendered by Freirean environmental education, promote the adoption of the ecological systemic paradigm in today's reality. Consequently, it results in ethical planetary ecosystem equilibrium.
