Welcome to my blog

This is a test for the strand on 17 things to chew on.

I'd loke to see how I can use videos and other web tools to inspire imagination of what a sustainable world might be like. Too much of environmental studies resolves around the doom and gloom. We need to make sure that students can image solutions, that they can image a world that is sustainable and beautiful, that they can image a world in which their daily actions have positive impacts, not detrimental ones.

  1. Good stuff Kevin.

    You are correct. We often make people feel as though there is no hope, or that they cannot make a difference.

    Have you read the book Cradle to Cradle??

    Would you reccommend it??

  2. WOW Kevin, that was an amazing video. It does give you some feeling of hope amidst all of the terrible statistics you read about environmental degradation, particularly in China. Have you read Cradle to Cradle?
