Abstract

Purpose. Analysis of the possibility of implementing integrated environmental education as an essential factor in improving the environmental literacy of the population in the field of collection and processing of solid domestic waste. Methods. Questionnaire survey, method of system analysis. Results. Based on the survey, a project is proposed that can be implemented in educational institutions as a component of increasing environmental literacy. Given the systemic nature and the complex nature, one can count on a long-term effect that exerts a significant influence not only on the pupils themselves, but also on the parents. The use of such an educational product in the school will give children the opportunity to think, independently assess the scale of the problem, do the right thing in the future and, most importantly, properly educate the future generation.
