The discussion pertaining environmental issues is closely related with the notion of low carbon. The research has been done to investigate how the students in elementary schools understand how to practice the environmental issues. The descriptive analysis method is carried out to capture students views on environmental practices that are closely related to their daily lives. The subject involved were 60 students from third and sixth grades of one elementary school. The students were asked to read 24 statements about environmental practices, and responded by choosing one of the three answer choices: do, sometimes do, never do. The research shows that most of student sometimes do the good environmental issues, but there are quite a lot of students who never do these. The teacher confessed that they have not been intensely engaged in learning about good environmental practices. They really expect the existence of teaching materials that can be used as guideline. They also hope for the availability of special learning models.
