The degradation of the environment has created a pressing need to promote environmental education. To support environmental improvement and foster a society that prioritizes environmental safety, a study on ecolabel research in environmental education has been initiated in DKI Jakarta. The main objectives of this study are: (1) to identify the indicators of ecolabel and their relationship to environmental education, and (2) to investigate the correlation between ecolabel and environmental education. This research will be conducted using a quantitative descriptive approach. The significance of this study lies in exploring the ecolabel indicators, examining their connection to environmental education, and understanding the relationship between them. The findings from this study will serve as a valuable resource for consumers, enabling them to make informed choices by providing accurate information about a product’s environmental aspects. This will empower individuals to opt for environmentally friendly products with a smaller negative impact on the environment throughout their life cycle, contributing to the goal of environmental sustainability.
