Abstract/Contents:It was not long ago when the general public saw golf as a misuse of land for the enjoyment to the privileged few. It has taken significant effort directed by STRI to change this outlook of golf to a more positive view. STRI has been promoting the importance of golf through emphasizing the "ecological and environmental importance of golf through books, videos, and the BIGGA Golf Environment Competition, the Welsh and English Golfing Unions' environmental initiatives and through training course, individual site investigations and an ongoing developing relationship with the statuary conservation organizations." Included in article is pictures of a few of the milestones that have helped to focus public perceptions and the golfing industry's view of golf's place within the environment. Pictures included provide some turning points that helped change public perceptions of the golf industry in the environment.
