The January 14 Environmental Issues Forum sponsored by the Joint Legislative Air and Water Pollution Control and Conservation Committee featured a presentation by Kathleen Cowles Paul, Director of the PA Center for Environmental Education.
PCEE was created through executive order in 1996 to "support and facilitate environmental education on a statewide basis." The center is located at Slippery Rock University and is administered by the State System of Higher Education.
Legislation-- Senate Bill 356 (MJ.White-R-Venango)—that would establish the Pennsylvania Center for Environmental Education in law was passed by the Senate and is now in the House Appropriations Committee.
In this Video Blog Feature, Kathleen Paul talks with PA Environment Digest editor David Hess about the Center, its role and services and its future.
Rep. Scott Hutchinson (R-Venango) is Chair of the Joint Committee and Sen. Ray Musto (D-Luzerne) is vice-chairman.
