Nature and human beings are like a bad marriage where we are not allowed to get a divorce. Well, nature is, and we’re not. Despite the fact that we put our lives on the line, we are unable to act collectively for its good. What can we do? Katia Hueso is convinced that education is the best tool to shake up this narrative. In this new book, she proposes various ideas for education in nature to be much more than a nice expression, so that it is not just a part of the curriculum but something multi-dimensional, which of course includes parents as much as teachers.
