Environment Texas Research & Policy Center

In 2006, Environment Texas Research & Policy Center became the new home of Texas Public Interest Research Group (TexPIRG) Education Fund's environmental work, focusing exclusively on protecting Texas' air, water and open spaces.

Drawing on more than a decade of experience, our professional staff combines independent research, practical ideas and effective educational campaigns to overcome the opposition of special interests and win real results for Texas' environment.

Our top priority is to alert the public to the crisis with the Texas State Parks System. From our research documenting the threat to Texas natural areas, to our new educational film, to our grassroots mobilization effort, Environment Texas Research and Policy Center is helping lead the fight to Save Texas Parks.
