Accumulated decades of governmental and civil initiatives, functional or transgressive to the urban agroindustrial model, have been adding skin and spirit to the field of environmental education (EA) in Mexico. This work offers a balance of what happened in the country in EE between 2005 and 2019, with an emphasis on what happened in the period of the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005-2014), decreed by the Organization of the United Nations. This publication is constructed from the views of the EE actors themselves in the country, so that it is a review from within generated by people and groups that, far from feeling defenseless, commit themselves to think, to do now look critically at the path traveled.
