Saving the Planet Starts at Home -- e-course with earth day school activities included!

"Where will the needed leadership come from, for a lifestyle that preserves the earth's resources for future generations? It is unlikely that politicians or the entertainment media will assume a strong leadership role - since they are powerfully affected by oil, auto and other industries that benefit from the present consumerist lifestyle. It will have to happen on a local level, a community level with people like you and me. We will have to make different choices in how we spend our time and money - choices that could bring us greater happiness, meaning, and deeper connections with others, while also bringing us into harmony with the earth's ecosystems."

-- Judy Morgan, Environmentalist and author

This e-mail course conveys the problems and informs the learner of steps that can be taken to start healing the environment -- starting in your own community. (The steps are adaptable for earth day school activities) For example, what steps can be taken to reduce global warming and hazardous waste; clean the air and waterways; green the environment; create sustainable agriculture and renewable energy, and so on.

Being Informed and Raising Awareness is the First Step
Environmentalist Judy Morgan clearly explains the issues and problems ailing the planet. She explains terms such as:

• Ecosystem
• Carrying capacity

Next she provides doable advice and life style shifts in short digestible lessons. Suggested lesson activities can easily be adapted into earth day school activities.

If we all do our small part, it will make a BIG difference!
In decades to come, our children will likely not have a choice but to live more consciously and responsibly. Conflicts and suffering over water and food shortages are already a horrible reality in certain parts of the world. This email course raises awareness, and then guides the learner to be proactive -- starting at home.
