Sumario:This research concerns the analysis carried out in two Brazilian magazines that address Environmental Education (EE) in attention to commercial films focusing on EE, aiming to analyze which films that researchers in the EE area have been using in times of environmental crisis in the Brazilian context. The research is of qualitative nature, and the empirical data were obtained from Electronic Journal of the Master in Environmental Education (EJMEE) and the Revista Ambiente & Educação, observing which are the conceptions of EE by Mello and Trivelato (1999), namely: conservative, social ecology and political ecology that predominate in films. The results showed that in 60% of the articles, the films used as a didactic resource in science teaching are focused on the conservative concept of EE. Another point to reflect on is the dissociation between the Brazilian EE Law that emphasizes transdisciplinary teaching and current teaching, because, still, the EE is more worked in science teaching in relation to other areas. Therefore, there is need to promote the use of film with a focus on EE in the school environment in a transversal way, approaching representations from the perspective of empowering and innovative critical EE, given what we experiencing with pandemic.
