%X The ecological damages, caused by the deforestation of the Venezuelan Rain Forest, are due to the mining and extracting of coal and oil. This not only destroys the natural environment, but also threatens the cultural preservation of the protected Venezuelan indigenous people and the land they inhibit. These tribes possess ancestral knowledge and have managed to maintain a life philosophy of greater balance with their environment. However, these human-environment traditions are not widely known or appreciated, even though there are as many traditions as there are tribes in Latin America. The purpose of this study was to conduct a research which would allow some of these Venezuelan Indian Tribes%u2019 visions and their relationship with the environment to be shown. This research would then promote the study of environmental values and propose a model to promote a sustainable environmental culture. This is needed for environmental education and therefore, guidelines are proposed in order to preserve the cultural, human-environmental relationship of Venezuelan Tribes. An exhaustive data collection was done, using several sources related to the subject. The result was a representation of six Venezuelan indigenous communities: Waraos, Pemones, Yanomami, Way迆u, Bari and W車th邦ha that raised some key factors which may have a positive influence in environmentalists%u2019 decision making and responsible use of the Venezuelan ecosystems. <br /> La deforestaci車n de los bosques tropicales y los da os ecol車gicos por explotaciones petroleras, mineras y carbon赤feras en Venezuela, no s車lo destruyen al ambiente natural, sino tambi谷n son una amenaza para la preservaci車n cultural y la protecci車n del territorio de los ind赤genas venezolanos que habitan estas zonas, los cuales tienen unos conocimientos ancestrales y han logrado mantener una filosof赤a de vida de mayor equilibrio con su entorno. Sin embargo, estas tradiciones ambientales son poco conocidas y apreciadas a pesar de ser tan amplias como la cantidad de estos pueblos en Latinoam谷rica. El prop車sito del estudio fue realizar una investigaci車n que permitiera mostrar la visi車n de algunos pueblos ind赤genas venezolanos sobre su relaci車n con el ambiente natural, a fin de promover la reflexi車n sobre sus valores ambientales, y proponer un modelo para la promoci車n de una cultura ambiental sostenible, necesarios para la Educaci車n Ambiental, para lo cual se proponen lineamientos orientadores, a fin de preservar la relaci車n cultural y ambiental de los pueblos ind赤genas venezolanos. Para esto, se realiz車 una recolecci車n exhaustiva
