Abstract

Environmental education is slowly approaching to the administration sciences. Gradually, the interrelation between the environment and some aspects of the social environment has been increased, searching for an organizational perspective that contemplates the respect to plurality and diversity. However, the administration sciences should consider it, since the ecological values have now acquired relevance for the organization's users. Also considering the public opinion, the organizations should adopt internal policies of environmental education even if by the pragmatism. This should not only take place on school environment, but also in organizations as a whole. The negative impacts of the anti-ecological act can cause serious damages. With the environmental administration, it is possible to develop a specific formation to a graduate course in administration, according to the national curriculum guidelines. Environmental responsibility and competitive advantage. The research aims at assessing the competitive advantage provided by environmental education, making use of the deductive method, concluding by the procedence of the heuristic hypothesis.
