Summary:
"A practical and poetic manifesto promoting new concepts of environmental learning: why environment, inequity, democracy, and diversity are connected challenges, how to navigate the rapid pace of change in the Anthropocene, how to better understand social and ecological networks, how to think about migration both ecologically and culturally, and how to bring a cosmopolitan perspective to place-based approaches. Covers this conceptual ground with clarity, focus, warmth, memoir, mindfulness practices, curricular ideas, and compelling narrative. It invites readers to participate as educational explorers, encouraging them to reflect on their life experiences, enabling them to better understand how and why environmental learning is crucial to human flourishing"-- Provided by publisher.
