Almanac
In 1995, the Texas Center for Policy Studies published the Texas Environmental Almanac, the first
publication to provide a comprehensive look at the state of the state’s
environment in an accessible and reader-friendly format. Interesting for
Texas citizens and policy makers alike, the Texas Environmental Almanac
provides facts, figures, historical and legislative information on the
condition of Texas land, air and water, as well as the state’s energy use
and waste generation.
The Texas Environmental Almanac
was subsequently published on-line by the Texas Environmental Center. Text
copies are not longer available.
In May of 2000, The Texas Environmental Almanac,
2nd Edition was published by the University of Texas Press. Compiled by the
Texas Center for Policy Studies, the Second Version is an extensive update
of the original Almanac. The updated Almanac can be ordered on-line from UT Press or
found at most major bookstores.
In December 2001, TCPS partnered with Environmental Defense to launch a new
web site called Texas Environmental Profiles which will combine information
from the current version of the Texas Environmental Almanac with
environmental information from state and federal environmental databases.
In this way, users are able to obtain information on a county-level
about their environmental and quality-of-life. Clickhere
