The environmental problem has been aggravated in the last decades both in the lack of
perception and in the form of environmental awareness. This work aimed to understand the
perceptions through the environmental representations elaborated by the students of a school
of young people and adults, as well as to discuss the perception of the subjects of the research,
in order to contribute to minimize the Amazonian environmental problems, with the intention
of to collaborate for the emancipatory formation of the man of the region, contextualizing this
individual with environment in which he lives and making him aware of his obligations as a
social subject. Thus, the work arose from the perspective of producing knowledge in
environmental education and awareness of anthropocentric actions. We present part of the
environmental perception and having as protagonists of the research the students of the
Education of Youth and Adults of a public school of Manaus who worked with the
environmental problems of Manaus-Am. In addition, it was seen the main obstacles to be
faced by the various organizations in the educational sphere and by society in general, pointed
out by the EJA students, in the activities developed in the classroom, as a strategy to deal with
the research problem.
