Abstract

The objective of the study is to characterize the world scientific production on Environmental Education (EA) in the Scopus and Web of Science , between the months of January 2020 to March 2022. We worked with a universe made up of 638 documents from the Web of Science and 774 from Scopus, extracted from 254 and 327 sources respectively. The bibliometric analysis indicates a very similar citation average between both databases (1.45 for Web of Science and 1.40 for Scopus). The average number of citations per document is also similar, being 1,276 and 1,589 in WoS and Scopus . The rate of collaboration between authors is slightly lower in Web of Science . The most cited article in both databases is titled “ How renewable energy consumption contribute to environment quality ? The role of education in OECD countries ”, the most productive author on the subject is Bruce Johnson, the journals that host the greatest production on EE are Sustainability ( Switzerland ) and Remea -revista eletronica do mestrado em educacao .
