Educación ambiental desarrollo sustentable educación media superior México. This paper offers an analysis of the situation presented by environmental education at the high-school level, by means of a case study done in the municipality of Campeche. There was performed exploratory research which combined quantitative and qualitative methods to diagnose high-school students’ level of environmental culture, as well as the type of environmental education they receive. The results indicate that students have a low level of environmental awareness, and lack the necessary knowledge and skills with which to make environmentally-friendly changes in their lifestyles. Although they show an interest in environmental issues, both their institutional context and their teachers’ low level of qualification operate as factors that discourage the students. The results allowed us to identify windows of opportunity for environmental education in the light of the students’ positive attitudes, their interest in learning sustainable practices, and the importance of the school as a source of information on the environment. El trabajo analiza el estado que guarda la educación ambiental en el nivel medio superior, mediante el estudio de caso del municipio de Campeche. Se realizó una investigación de carácter exploratorio que combina métodos cuantitativos y cualitativos para diagnosticar el grado de cultura ambiental de los estudiantes de preparatoria y el tipo de educación ambiental que reciben. Los resultados indican que los estudiantes poseen un nivel de cultura ambiental bajo y carecen de los conocimientos y habilidades necesarias para realizar cambios ambientalmente favorables en sus estilos de vida. Aunque manifiestan interés por la temática ambiental, tanto el contexto institucional como el bajo nivel de habilitación de los maestros operan como factores que desincentivan a los alumnos. Los resultados permiten identificar ventanas de oportunidad para la educación ambiental a la luz de las actitudes positivas de los alumnos, su interés por aprender prácticas sustentables y la importancia de la escuela como fuente de información ambiental.
