Sumario:In our times, there is an urgent situation, which is affected by inter-continental issues related to the environmental situation. Problems such as the lack of water, pollution or global warming are di-rectly or indirectly affecting to some areas in our planet, some of them really damaged already. Further, some sectors of humanity are making an urgent call to make actions and therefore a change in our mentalities. For that reason, the international educative community feels their responsibility as formers of students of the presents and adults for the future. The intention of this paper is to diffuse and to summarize common methodologies used in Education for Sustainable Develop-ment, observe different roles in school communities and their collaboration in ESD and how in-ternational educative programmes, and more in particular the International Baccalaureate aids and develop those green influences at schools with its pedagogy, statements and mission with their particular global perspective
