Environmental literacy in the Early Childhood and Primary education curricula derived from the LOMLOE law

The objective of this work is to analyze whether the curricula derived from the LOMLOE (Organic Law 3/2020, of 29 December, which amends Organic Law 2/2006, of 3 May, on Education) for the Early Childhood and Primary Education stages favor environmental literacy. Because environmental literacy is understood as the ability to reflect on the interrelationship between social systems and the biosphere, we consider it of general interest that its dimensions be included in the Royal Decrees. For content analysis, a qualitative and interpretive approach has been used. This process gave rise to a prior analysis system and another final one considering the data. The results indicate the low degree of prescribed environmental literacy and the negative implications that this entails for the environmental education of citizens.
