environmental education
Posted: Mon Nov 25, 2013 2:23 am
So, I've realized that one of the best advantages of growing up in Utah was the backyard access to spectacular national parks, bike trails, and canyons for a decent price. I feel like fewer kids get outdoors anymore, and I come from a tradition that is very active on both sides. I really care about education, so was just wondering what anyone thought about combining these fields. There's environmental science teaching, working in parks, and writing, both from a travel perspective and an activist perspective.
Also, not sure if I'm going to settle in Utah or California for the moment, but I'm really glad to see this LDS portal on the environment. Of course, I have Opinions on Herbert & co. (do I have to choose states with insane governors?) and the toxic sludge air, but if the LDS Church put their weight behind real change ... wow, that would be fantastic.
(SW Mormons should pay heed, too, because I think water will be the issue of the 21st century.)
