Abstract

Environmental education must adjust to socioeconomic changes, it remains a necessity to maintain environmental balance and the necessary resilience to climate change. The community located in the Pastorita Popular Council of Cienfuegos, Cuba is linked to the educational sector through a basic secondary school, three primary schools and the University of Cienfuegos. It is a context in which educational institutions can influence the proper management of natural resources water, sea, land, air and sun through proposals for environmental education for renewable energy sources, with support in the diffusion models of renewable energy technologies. That is why the objective of this work is to propose an initial theoretical framework for a theme park project, which allows the dissemination of technologies for the use of renewable energy sources towards community practice. It concludes by reaffirming that it is an urgent need to maintain resources and the environment, which includes all members of urban communities, since environmental problems imply more global solutions.
