Abstract: This study emphasizes the importance of incorporating sustainability into Nigerian Physics Education to foster environmental stewardship, innovative problem-solving, and sustainable employment prospects. It also looked at the benefits of sustainable Physics Education and how to apply it in Nigeria, which requires a multifaceted strategy that includes curriculum creation, teacher training, community participation, and partnerships and collaborations. It gives a clear path to how educators, policymakers, and stakeholders may collaborate to promote sustainability and environmental consciousness in Physics Education while also providing students with the information and skills they need to confront Nigeria’s environmental concerns. The study suggested that revising the Physics curriculum, offering teacher training, encouraging community engagement, and cultivating partnerships and collaborations are critical for boosting long-term Physics Education policies that will guarantee a greener future for Nigerian students and the nation at large.
