“…Most accepted definitions of EE include reference to developing skills and a willingness (attitude) to work to resolve environmental problems. While Salmon (2000) is correct in noting that prescribing particular courses of action are inappropriate, the field has developed and continues to strive for citizen action as its ultimate outcome. Therefore, the need for developing knowledge and skills in civics deserves as much attention as science education.…”

“…Furthermore, some within the field recognized that several of the ICEE criticisms had some merit (Hungerford, 1996;Weilbacher, 1997;Wilke, 1996a).
