“…Studies on environmental attitudes have covered themes such as attitudes toward the desegregation of public amenities (Rhoodie & Le Row, 1983;Rhoodie & Louw, 1983;Van Staden, 1986) and the desegregation of vacation facilities (De Beer, 1979), user preferences for study facilities (Grieve, 1985), attitudes towards homes for the aged (Ferreira, 1984) and architectural housing style preferences (Viljoen & Van Staden, 1984). While a few studies on adults' attitudes toward environmental conservation have been reported (Adler & Ackerman, 1981; Grieve & Van Staden, 1985), the State Department of Environmental Affairs has for some time been conducting environmental education programmes.…”
