The provincial budget, tabled Tuesday, shows spending on environmental management projects has plummeted to $7.4 million from about $33 million last year.

With the end of ecoTrust, the province received only $311,000 from Ottawa this year for climate change programs.

The NS dept of environment spent $33 million last year, on what? No wonder it's being chopped, they had nothing to show for $33 million and they will have nothing to show for $7 million either. I'm glad about this.
