abstract_textpDespite the fact that Earth Sciences can contribute greatly to the understanding of the socio economic system in our communities, the reduction of Earth Science education in curricula and ineffective territorial assessment is now a fact of life in post-industrial society. The objectives of the article are: (a) to show the implications of the decrease in environmental knowledge of the population, and (b) to propose Geoparks as a possible tool in the short to medium term to interact to improve natural resource management. Research conducted over the last five years in the Geologic Park of Aliaga shows that the population has a poor knowledge of environmental issues and of natural resource assessment and exploitation. The results are more significant if we consider the differences between people from rural areas and cities. This fact is more important in the education and development of potential future managers (students at present in school) who currently cannot properly identify geological resources and do understand criteria for their evaluation. I propose Geoparks to try to redress the current lack of geological and environmental knowledge./p/abstract_text
