Abstract: The Adiwiyata program has been implemented in several elementary schools in Indonesia, but its implementation has not been integrated into learning. As a result, students' contextual understanding of the environment is low. The aims of this research are: 1) to find out the implementation of the EESD approach in science learning; 2) find out the effectiveness of the EESD approach towards students' environmentally caring character. This research uses an experimental method with a one group pretest-posttest design. The population of this study was fifth grade MIN 2 Bantul students consisting of class A and class B. The sample was selected using cluster random sampling and 29 students were selected for class B. The instruments used in this research include observation sheets and questionnaires. The research results show that: 1) The EESD approach was implemented with a percentage of 95% in the very good category; 2) The EESD approach is effective in increasing the character of caring for the environment in the sufficient category.
