A Brief History of Environmental EducationPerspectives on the Foundation of Environmental Education (NAAEE)
1969 Dr. William Stapp, University of Michigan, was the first to concisely define environmental education in 1969:
Environmental education is aimed at producing a citizenry that is knowledgeable concerning the biophysical environment and its associated problems, aware of how to help solve these problems, and motivated to work toward their solution.
(Stapp, W.B., et al. (1969). The Concept of Environmental Education. Journal of Environmental Education, 1(1), 30-31.)
1970 In his 1970 Environmental Message to Congress, President Richard Nixon emphasized the importance of environmental literacy.
…It is also vital that our entire society develop a new understanding and a new awareness of man's relation to his environment - what might be called "environmental literacy." This will require the development and teaching of environmental concepts at every point in the educational process. (Nixon,
R.M. (1970). President's Message to the Congress of States In Environmental Quality, the First Annual Report of the Council on Environmental Quality, together with the President's Message t Congress. Washington, D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office, S/N 0-389-110. ED 062-109, p.11)
In October of 1970, President Nixon signed the Environmental Education Act (P.L. 91-516) into law. The Act defined EE as:
...The educational process dealing with man's relationship with his natural and manmade surroundings, and includes the relation of population, conservation, transportation, technology, and urban and regional planning to the total human environment. (U.S. Public Law 91-516. The Environmental Quality Education Act. Enacted October 30, 1970, p. 1)
1972-77 At an international level, EE gained prominence during the 1972 Stockholm Conference on the Environment. Recommendation 96 of this conference recommended environmental education as a critical means to address the world's environmental crises. This recommendation was addressed at the 1975 International Environmental Workshop in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, which resulted in the Belgrade Charter (Barry, J. (ed.).(1976). The Belgrade Charter: A Global Framework for Environmental Education. Connect: UNESCO-UNEP Environmental Education Newsletter, 1 (1), p.1-3) a document which begins to define the goals and objectives of environmental, p.26-7
1977 cont. The Belgrade Charter was further refined at the Intergovernmental Conference on EE in Tbilisi, Republic of Georgia in 1977: … Environmental education, properly understood, should constitute a comprehensive lifelong education, one responsive to changes in a rapidly changing world. It should prepare the individual for life through an understanding of the major problems of the contemporary world, and the provision of skills and attributes needed to play a productive role towards improving life and prot
ecting the environment with due regard given to ethical values. (UNESCO, 1977, p.24) The Tbilisi declaration also explicitly stated the objectives of environmental education as: awareness, knowledge, attitudes, skills and participation. (UNESCO. (1977, 14-26 October). Final Report - Tbilisi. Paper presented at the Intergovernmental Conference on Environmental Education, Tbilisi, Republic of Georgia
1980 Hungerford, et al. published, "Goals for Curriculum Development in Environmental Education" in the Journal of Environmental Education (11:3, pp. 42-7) in 1980. Using the following as the super ordinate goal of EE: ...to aid citizens in becoming environmentally knowledgeable and, above all, skilled and dedicated citizens who are willing to work, individually and collectively, toward achieving and/or maintaining a dynamic equilibrium between quality of life and quality of the environment (Hungerford, et al., 1980, p.44).
1980 cont. Hungerford et al. developed a framework to guide the development of EE curricula in a manner that would be consistent with guiding principles established at Tbilisi. Level 1: Ecolological Foundations Level 2: Conceptual Awareness - Issues and Values Level 3: Investigation and Evaluation Level 4: Environmental Action Skills - Training and Application
