As a child he was taught to respect nature by an Apache elder he called Grandfather, now as a bestselling author and master tracker Tom Brown, Jr., shares his secrets for nurturing and saving our planet. Tom Brown, Jr., is America's most acclaimed outdoorsman, tracker, and teacher. When he was eight he met Stalking Wolf, an Apache elder who taught the young man how to survive in the wild, and more importantly, how to value our place in the natural order. For more than three decades, Tom Brown, Jr., has shared these insights with the world through teaching, writing, and film. Now, for the first time, he has detailed actions that each of us can take to help heal our ailing planet. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

With each subject the author explains how he was taught to view each of these items, and the ways we are basically ruining them. What makes this book different is that at the end of each chapter he tells us what we can do now to effect change. No action is too small, but the object is to start and keep going. At books end there are exercises and stories from students at his school.
"The third choice is to take actions small and collective, to be aware of the environments you move through, interacting and caring for them as a caretaker and a healer of our Earth mother."
"Indigenous people know that the wood we burn in our fires is much more than a piece of firewood. They view the wood they burn as a combination of solid sunshine, rainwater and air. Tress and plants are the future soils of life. As the wood decays, it not only provides fresh nutrients to our soil, but is used by animals and insects as their homes and shelters."
As one can see everything on Earth is connected, and we haven't been very good caretakers. We have taken a great many things for granted, not mindfully considering the choices we make. ( )
