Strengthening Environmental Care Attitudes Through Social Wisdom-Based Social Studies Learning

Environmental damage is a problem. One of them is caused by humans who exploit the environment for various activities without regard to environmental quality and sustainability. Strengthening environmental attitudes is an aspect that must be developed to the community and future generations so that environmental sustainability can be maintained. Education is a tool that can be used to instill an attitude of caring for the environment to members of the community, namely students as future generations. This article aims to explain how local wisdom relating to environmental aspects in the community can be used as part of developing students' environmental care attitudes that are integrated through social studies learning. A literature study is conducted to collect data and information that is suitable for conducting narrative discussions. The results of the discussion showed that through the integration of local wisdom as the content of social studies learning material provided opportunities for students to know about the characteristics of their environment and provide solutions to environmental problems. This can be done by linking aspects of local wisdom as learning resources on social studies material that is appropriate to the human context, place, and environment.
