This State Plan for Environmental Education, proposed by the Texas Advisory Council on Environmental Education, is designed to promote a greater public awareness and understanding among Texas citizens of their relationships with and dependence upon the natural and man-made environments. Such an awareness should foster an ability to comprehend and evaluate the total costs of proposed trade-offs between environmental quality, continued economic growth, and standards of living. The plan calls for coalescing the resources and capabilities of the communities, educational institutions, environmental organizations, governmental bodies, and industries to provide essential educational services. Goals and objectives of the plan are expressed, together with the operational structure and time-phase sequence of implementation. The status, functions, and makeup of participating sectors in the program are also described. (BL)
