David Orr - ‘Earth in Mind’

This weeks Green Thought is taken from David Orr’s 1994 book ‘Earth in Mind’.

(introduction to part 1 ‘The problem of education’)

‘If one listens carefully, it may even be possible to hear the Creation groan every year when another batch of smart, degree-holding, but ecologically illiterate, Homo sapiens who are eager to succeed are launched into the biosphere’.
