TWO ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION SURVEYS RELEASED: GENERAL PUBLIC AND K-12 TEACHERS The Environmental Education Fund, a non-profit organization formed in 1998 to raise public awareness of the environmental consequences of our actions, released the results of a North Carolina Environmental Education Survey of the general public in August 2002. The results of a second survey directed to K-12 teachers was released in November 2002 . The surveys, made possible through a grant from Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation and federal funds from the Environmental Protection Agency, were conducted by the Survey Research Laboratory at East Carolina University. The surveys were developed over a two-year period with input from non-profit organizations, state, federal and local government agencies, environmental educators, teachers, business and industry, and the state's environmental education centers. The primary purpose of conducting both surveys was to determine the general public's and teachers' awareness of environmental education resources, materials and facilities in North Carolina and to determine their use and demand for these services. The surveys show that the general public is not aware of the vast network of extraordinary environmental education resources in North Carolina - teacher training programs, 170 environmental education centers, publications and educational trips. The Environmental Education Fund designed these surveys to serve as a foundation for its mission to bring environmental education into the mainstream thinking of the general public, teachers, and education administrators.

Also as the provision notes, the General Assembly has the primary responsibility for supporting the University of North Carolina, especially as that support relates to North Carolina citizens. However, over the past decades both of these statements have began to erode. State appropriations to public higher education have steadily declined from 17.4% of the state budget in the mid 1980s to 12% today. Over the past decade tuition and required fees have increased by over 100 percent and UNC system campuses.

Search John Locke Sites Advanced Search About Us Contact Us Support Us ... Innovation GOVERNOR, LEGISLATURE BEGIN BUDGET DEBATE Now entering its fourth straight year of projected or realized budget deficits, North Carolina has seen its economy slide into recession and then stagnate. Its state and local tax burden has grown dramatically since 2000, with Gov. Mike Easley proposing yet another round of higher state taxes on sales and income in 2003-05 — as well as cuts in funding to localities that may also result in tax hikes. Is there a way for North Carolina to deliver core public services without hitting up taxpayers again? The John Locke Foundation's fiscal policy research provides the answer, with budget-savings ideas and analysis of how rising taxes affect the state's economic competitiveness. The Freedom Budget: Nine Rs for North Carolina Fiscal Responsibility North Carolina faces significant fiscal and economic challenges. But it need not resort to higher taxes, a state-run lottery, higher debt, or gimmickry to balance its budget. JLF’s Freedom Budget for 2003-05 shows that by setting firm priorities within state government, eliminating duplicative programs, and encouraging personal responsibility, state leaders can generate sufficient savings to invest in the future needs of the state and adopt a more competitive, growth-enhancing flat-rate income tax.
