Abstract: As environmental challenges increase in scope and scale, new conceptualizations for environmental literacy are needed. Specifically, notions of environmental literacy must move from those at the individual level to those at the group, or community, level. However, the concept of community level environmental literacy is underdeveloped. In this paper, we present the results of a Delphi method survey of experts, gathered to both conceptualize community level environmental literacy as well as address considerations for its measurement.
