Environmental Developments with the Educational and Research Approach of Green Schools

Nature is a destructible resource, which its destruction can be prevented or delayed, and it can be revived using different strategies. Environment is the most important platform for the life of humans, animals, and plants, and its preservation is directly related to the way humans deal with it. Therefore, operational methods with short-term, medium-term, and long-term goals should be used to preserve the environment. Among the goals, education from childhood is one of the effective goals in preserving the environment. Since childhood education leads to the creation of sustainable behavior in adolescence, adulthood, and old age, the present study was conducted to investigate the educational and research approach in green schools. The current study is a simple descriptive review that was conducted by searching databases: UptoDate, ISI, PubMed, Google Scholar during the years 2006 to 2022 with keywords; green school, education and research, education, environment, biological changes during the year It took place. In the initial search, 153 Persian and English articles were found, and by applying the inclusion criteria, 15 articles were finally extracted. The findings showed that promoting the culture of building educational and research environments, such as the green school (emphasis on the generalization and development of the culture of environmental protection in the areas of urban development), can effectively increase promotion of the green schools. Therefore, providing green schools for students potentially leads to achieving short-term, medium-term, and long-term goals with the strategy of providing human and environmental health; consequently, the environment will be preserved for all living beings.
