Environmental Literacy in America: What Ten Years of NEETF/Roper Research and Related Studies Say About Environmental Literacy i

The 2005 installment of the NEETF/Roper Report Card is a must-read for anyone interested in helping Americans gain the knowledge that will lead to environmentally responsible actions. The report delves deeply into what people know and provides sobering evidence of the limited knowledge Americans have about the root causes of environmental problems and how their personal actions are connected to them. It also provides an excellent analysis of traditional environmental education research and related research and studies from other relevant fields, all of which sheds light on the state of environmental literacy. Prior to publication, the report was reviewed by leading researchers in the field for rigor and interpretation and accurate reporting.
