A new integration of Goleman's emotional, social, and
ecological intelligence
Hopeful, eloquent, and bold, Ecoliterate offers inspiring
stories, practical guidance, and an exciting new model of education
that builds - in vitally important ways - on the success of social
and emotional learning by addressing today's most important
ecological issues.
This book shares stories of pioneering educators, students, and
activists engaged in issues related to food, water, oil, and coal
in communities from the mountains of Appalachia to a small village
in the Arctic; the deserts of New Mexico to the coast of New
Orleans; and the streets of Oakland, California to the hills of
South Carolina.
Ecoliterate marks a rich collaboration between Daniel
Goleman and the Center for Ecoliteracy, an organization best known
for its pioneering work with school gardens, school lunches, and
integrating ecological principles and sustainability into school
curricula. For nearly twenty years the Center has worked with
schools and organizations in more than 400 communities across the
United States and numerous other countries.
Ecoliterate also presents five core practices of
emotionally and socially engaged ecoliteracy and a professional
development guide.
