One of the indicators is the students could not get exposures clearly deal with increasing their social awareness in Go Green issues. Therefore, this paper presents research result focusing on HOTs in storytelling to promote EFL students’ awareness in go green issues. As a case study, it involves one class of seventh grade students with one teacher. Two instruments were employed to collect the data namely classroom observation and interview with the students and teachers. The findings show that the teacher applied brainstorming in go green issue through showing pictures, direct observation to their environment, and role playing with a go green specific topic related to their surrounding situation. The results from the interview show that the students could understand well the materials given since they directly reflect to what really happen in their place. By doing so, they realize that what they have learnt in the classroom should direct them to raise their awareness so that the issue of go green could be done well. In addition, the students also claim that they could place themselves and behave optimally to contribute the go green program. It was recognized by the teachers in the interview that the students tended to accept what the teachers instructed them to succeed go green issue as they were engaged through HOTs in storytelling classes
