Their information level is so important to teach environmental issues and develop students` environmental awareness. In the study, the misconceptions held by 4th year pre service science teachers about carbon cycle and global warming was investigated. A total of 52 4 th year pre-service science teachers participated in the study. A questionnaire consisted of 10 open ended questions was developed to test pre-service science teachers` conceptions about the key components of the carbon cycle and global warming. Results have revealed that pre-service science teachers have conflicting, scientifically incorrect ideas and many misconceptions relating to the subject.
