Abstract

At the first glance, ecology and language are separate and unrelated topics, but they are closely related when viewed using ecolinguistics theory. Indonesia has many textbooks that integrate environmental education to increase students’ awareness of global issues on the environment, one of which is the Indonesian Language Textbook for Foreign Speakers (better known as BIPA). There are 7 books analyzed using document analysis. Qualitative research is used in this case. The data source comes from the book BIPA Sahabatku Indonesia 2019 published by the Language Development and Development Agency, Ministry of Education and Culture. In particular, the research investigates the spread of the theme, the ecolexicon. and euphemisms in environmental themed reading texts. The findings of this study are expected to be useful in presenting material and increasing vocabulary related to the environment in textbooks, especially BIPA textbooks.
