This is the background to which this research was conducted. This research uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation and documentation. This research provides a conclusion that Islamic Religious Education teachers have a significant role in fostering an attitude of caring for the environment at SMP Negeri 2 Pancalang, Kuningan Regency.
