        abstract = {Ecopedagogy is a critical pedagogical movement that integrates environmental awareness with social justice consciousness to address planetary crises through education. The ecopedagogical approach provides a unique framework for understanding how contemporary writers engage their readers as active participants in ecological resistance and climate change. The research paper focusses on how the poems Craig Santos Perez’s “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Glacier” and Carol Ann Duffy’s “Parliament” intertwine ecological collapse with urgent calls for human accountability. The study further employs three core principles of ecopedagogy such as ecopedagogue, conscientisation and ecopedagogical praxis to examine how the poets cultivate critical environmental consciousness. 
The research article investigates the ecopedagogue as critical educator exposing hidden mechanisms of ecological violence. Conscientisation works as the dual process of widening planetary awareness and deepening the understanding of systemic oppression. The ecopedagogical praxis function as the dialectical integration of reflection with transformative action. Through an exploration of poetic testimony and resistance, both Perez and Duffy construct pedagogical interventions that challenge the environmental destruction, document biodiversity loss and glacial retreat and demand the need for urgent ecological solidarity linking human liberation with planetary survival.},
