Thwarting the Attack on Environmental Education

INTERRUPT and the Center for Commercial-Free Public Education exposed and stalled a right-wing attack on environmental education. The attack started with a book that supposedly exposed the abuses of environmental education. The forward to the book was written by Marilyn Quayle and the book itself was followed by a barrage of news articles and coordinated opinion pieces timed to support measures to abolish environmental education at the state and national level. The joint INTERRUPT/Center media campaign shifted national news coverage to focus on who was behind the attack on environmental education - corporate polluters with a vested interest in environmental education.
