STOP PRESS! On the 28th of May the National Government announced in the 2009 Budget significant cuts to environmental education (EE), education for sustainability (EfS) and adult community education (ACE) programmes funded through the Ministry of Education, and also to general sustainability initiatives funded by the Ministry for the Environment.
