The Consumer Resources Environteam has developed this idea handbook as part of the Broad Spectrum Environmental Education Program in Brevard County, Florida. Interest had been displayed by local civic groups, fraternal clubs, and private organizations in identifying environmental improvement projects that could be undertaken by individual groups. The Environteam thus saw the need for a coordinated, combined approach to resolving the problems, utilizing total effort and talents of multiple groups. To this end, presentations were given to various groups to stimulate their interest in the local area ecology, improve their environmental awareness, and encourage them to develop constructive projects for the betterment of the county. The main portion of this ideabook consists of five such presentations. They deal with problems, possible solutions, and improvement ideas/projects associated with Brevard's beaches, recreational areas, bike paths, solid waste disposal, and waterways. In addition, 14 other projects which keep the public ecologically minded and stress moral responsibility are briefly described. These range from grocery bags and other reusable containers to project awards, media public service announcements, and organic gardening. This work was prepared under an ESEA Title III contract. (BL)
