Implementation of environmental education is an important policy to preserve the environment. The authors believe that stakeholders' involvement is significant for the long-term sustainability of ecological and conservation efforts. The purpose of the study was to discuss the commitment of environmentally sound education policymakers to preserve the environment. We have searched and analyzed data from many published books, environmental journals, and environmental education documents from international ecological journals that actively discuss the issue, including Elsevier Publications, ERIC, Sagepub, Google Books, and websites. The data we collected was then analyzed under a phenomenological approach, an effort to understand the issues as much data as possible. We involve data coding, evaluation, interpretation, and conclusion to answer research problems with high validity and reliability principles. We searched our data electronically by embedding keywords for the theme of this study. We also visited some schools to collect data about educational policy regarding environmental framework policy. Based on available data and discussion of research results, there is a very close relevance between environmental education policies in schools, individual attitudes, community behavior, and industrial behavior to preserve a sustainable healthy environment. These findings will be essential for developing a healthy environment for future studies, academic studies, policy-making, and environmental implementation in protecting the environment.

This study aimed to find out how environmental education influences promising practices for sustainability and conservation in Aceh, Indonesia. We investigated how educational initiatives influence environmental stewardship awareness, knowledge, and action. Lacking environmental care and nonsensical practices requires propelling sensibility and assurance through regular tutoring. This study aimed to ascertain the efficacy of environmental stewardship education programs. This study employs a mixed-methods approach that combines qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate the impact of environmental education on practices that promote sustainability and conservation. Surveys and questionnaires, interviews, and observations are used to gather information about participants' knowledge, attitudes, and actions. The information gathered was then examined and deciphered to give bits of knowledge into the adequacy of ecological instruction programs and distinguish regions for development. After participating in environmental education programs in Aceh, the participants' knowledge, attitudes, and actions toward conservation and sustainability were found to have improved. In conclusion, environmental education is crucial in promoting sustainability and conservation practices. Raising awareness, fostering knowledge, and inspiring action empower individuals to become stewards of the environment, contributing to a more sustainable future. Based on the findings, enhancing environmental education initiatives in Aceh Province is recommended by strengthening partnerships among educational institutions, NGOs, and government agencies. Integrating practical hands-on activities and community engagement can promote sustainability and conservation practices.

Context: Candida albicans is a pathological agent that triggers oral candidiasis because C. albicans can adapt to changes to increase growth and adhesion through biofilm formation mechanisms. Moringa oleifera Lam. has been reported to have fungistatic properties and increases the metabolism change of C. albicans. Aims: To evaluate the fungistatic effect of M. oleifera leaves ethanolic extract (MOLE) on the metabolism changes of C. albicans cells associated with growth and biofilm formation. Methods: The assessment of metabolism changes (stress response and metabolic alterations) of C. albicans by the action of MOLE was performed by mean of FTIR, growth assessment by spectrophotometry, biofilm formation with 1% crystal violet, also read by spectrophotometry, and observation of biofilm mass with a microscope. Results: MOLE showed substantial absorption values based on topological polar surface area (<140 Å2). Concentrations of 25% and 6.25% of MOLE increased the stress response (metabolism changes) of C. albicans (66-75%), meanwhile 50% and nystatin (100.000 IU/mL) were similar in inducing metabolism changes of C. albicans. All concentrations of M. oleifera could inhibit the growth of C. albicans at all incubation times (24, 48, and 72 h) with an Optical Density (OD) of 0.02-0.05 (<300 CFU/mL) and were able to degrade the biofilm formation of C. albicans on a scale substantial at 24 and 48 h (OD>0.4), and moderate scale at 72 h (OD 0.2-0.39). Conclusions: The extract of M. oleifera has increased metabolism changes (stress response) of C. albicans cells, which correlate with the ability to inhibit growth and biofilm formation for 24, 48, and 72 h.
