As if the Earth Matters

Recommitting to Environmental Education

by Thom Henley & Kenny Peavy



Is environmental education succeeding in producing an eco-aware and conscientious population, or has it "flat-lined"?

Lavishly illustrated and packed with fun-filled outdoor educational activities As If The Earth Matters shows how through immersing our children in the beauty of nature we can motivate them to take an active role in conservation.

Perfect for parents, school teachers, camp leaders and nature clubs, this book reawakens a child-like joy and sense of wonder in the natural world.
