This year's focus for World Environment Day is food waste and the tagline is Think. Eat. Save.
Recently, I've been asking myself again what is the best way to respond to the environmental changes we are experiencing. I happened to come across a new book the other day by Mary Pipher titled: The Green Boat: Reviving Ourselves in Our Capsized Culture.
A few comments from the book jacket:
"With stories of local, mature activism, the Green Boat takes you through disturbing feelings about the future to a sense of hope. It's the book I've been waiting for, intelligently addressing the emotional issues involved without the guilt or blame." --Thomas Moore, author Care of the Soul
Mary Pipher has been our wise and steadfast guide through the worlds of adolescence, aging, and how families can teach humane values in a culture where everything is for sale. Now she's tackling the hardest question--how we can get past denial to reverse the human-caused climate change that jeopardizes the habitability of the world. As we'd expect, she does it thoughtfully, passionately and ultimately with hope."
