Barlow book reviewed in the Washington Times
October 3, 2012
Post Carbon Fellow Zenobia Barlow and the Center for Ecoliteracy’s latest book Ecoliterate was reviewed in the Washington Times.
From the review:
Many years ago, I participated in an outdoor environmental program aimed at providing young students with hands-on experience. At the event, one of the instructors was wearing a T-shirt with a large sketch of a majestic lion with the description, “We are all one spirit.” Being a rather humorous sort, I thought of teasing the teacher with, “Why don’t you have a picture of a cockroach on your shirt, instead?”
What does such a bold T-shirt have to do with “Ecoliterate: How Educators are Cultivating Emotional, Social, and Ecological Intelligence” by Daniel Goleman, Lisa Bennett and Zenobia Barlow? Besides providing a wealth of educational perspective and techniques, “Ecoliterate” also promotes the current academically acceptable spiritual position — that is, we are all one in the eco-spirit.
