Know Your Environment
The Environmental Associates
The Environmental Associates, a group of leading industries that work in cooperation with the Academy of Natural Sciences, began meeting in 1965. The group supports environmental research at The Academy and works with academy scientists to learn how to mitigate and prevent pollution problems.
The goals of the Environmental Associates are:
- to support scientific discovery
- to furnish scientific information and guidance to industry, government, and environmental organizations
- to sponsor national conferences on important environmental issues
- to disseminate objective information to the public on issues of environmental concern.
As part of this effort to inform the public, the Associates and The Academy of Natural Sciences produce the Know Your Environment series.
