Excessive exploitation of the modern human environment can ultimately damage the environment and have a negative impact on human life on the surface of the earth. Providing basic knowledge about the environment is very important to increase environmental awareness and solve environmental problems. The idea of eco-literacy can be a practical solution to overcoming these environmental problems. This research was conducted descriptively on schools that have Environmental Education lessons. Data retrieval and analysis is carried out based on eco-literacy achievement competencies of 4 components. Competencies that can be used as a reference for eco-literacy achievements include; head (cognitive), heart (emotional), hands (active), and spirit (connectional). The four competencies can be implemented in the learning process and field learning applications to increase the eco-literacy of students and instill habitual attitudes that care for the environment in everyday life. One effort to increase the eco-literacy of students is through ecopedagogy-based learning. Competencies that can be achieved are; 1) formation of attitudes and concerns based on field studies, 2) increasing understanding, building environmental ethics and morals, and 3) active participation in community life in a continuous manner. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
