The analysis is based on the need to extend environmental education to the whole life of individuals due to the deep and rapid environmental changes we are witnessing. Formal education presents important limitations since it covers a short period of people's lives even in the case of social sectors that have access to all levels of education. The mass media, on the other hand, have the capacity to reach a mass public with different levels of literacy and in a continuous manner over time, which makes them potentially very effective educational agents. On the other hand, duly informed, people can decide how they relate to the environment. In this regard, the current situation in our country shows severe deficiencies. Se discute el nivel de compromiso de los medios de comunicación social en la educación ambiental, la oferta educativa de las principales universidades de la Argentina para la formación de periodistas ambientales y los requisitos que deberían satisfacerse para una adecuada participación de los medios en la educación. El análisis se basa en la necesidad de extender la educación ambiental a toda la vida de los individuos debido a los profundos y rápidos cambios ambientales a los que asistimos. La educación formal presenta limitaciones importantes ya que abarca un corto período de la vida de las personas aún en el caso de los sectores sociales que acceden a todos los niveles educativos. Los medios de comunicación social, en cambio, tienen la capacidad de llegar a un público masivo con diferentes niveles de alfabetización y de manera continua en el tiempo lo que los convierte en agentes educativos potencialmente muy efectivos. Por otro lado, debidamente informadas, las personas pueden decidir la manera en que se relacionan con el ambiente. Sobre este particular la situación actual en nuestro país muestra severas deficiencias.
