BRAVO! BRAVO! I personally feel that this constituency of learning is far, far overdue. I also personally
feel that every child at every degree in learning should be made aware of how his/her actions are impacting
or will impact the environment , also how they will repair some of the damage that has been created by others. For I believe that it is never too late.

Any one with more info on the primary sources for this quote?:
"A handful of studies from the State Education and Environment Roundtable shows the same connection, that students exposed to a nature-based curriculum score higher more than 90 percent of the time than students taught the same subjects in the classroom out of a textbook."
Please email rpleune@fergusonfoundation.org. I do a lot of professional development with teachers and would like to pass on this info to the principals so they continue to support us. -

I am the outreach coordinator for the Alice Ferguson Foundation and do a lot of professional development with public school teachers in the D.C. Metro Area. I'd like to have more of this data to give to principals. Please email with any helpful info: rpleune@fergusonfoundation.org -

A mandate should exist that all Americans, young and old, become educated in the science of ecology because according to the natural laws of ecology, our Earth is struggling under the weight of human populations and expanding ecosystem death as our lives and the future depend upon this science.
Every school in America should be articulating the basics of this science. An education on the ecology of Earth will give our planet a chance and will create a safer world for the future.
