Go take a walk in the Redwood Forest... The Arcata Community Forest is Especially Fine as it's So Very Close to Civilization... A Study in Contrasts!


Go take a walk in the Redwood Forest... The Arcata Community Forest is Especially Fine as it's So Very Close to Civilization... A Study in Contrasts! One Day, during a class on ecology, a classmate of mine wanted to hold the class outdoors but she was too shy to propose this action... so she told me... I'm not shy, and Spoke Up... the teacher, Dick Hansis, Agreed IF... I lead the Walk in the woods and... NO ONE TALKED the entire Hike...

In the history of modern civilization, we’ve witnessed four major revolutions that forever changed the way the world operates. From the impact of irrigation on hunting and gathering in an agrarian economy, to the impact of assembly lines in a manufacturing economy, to the evolution of the workforce in the industrial economy, society was forced to rethink the jobs we inhabit, the businesses we operate and the cities we live in. And, while each of these revolutions built the foundation for the world we live in today, businesses and global economies that refused to evolve, or couldn’t evolve in time, were left behind. Innovation and new technology are indisputably the cornerstone of every revolution—disrupting practices that once defined life as we knew it and making what seemed impossible at the time a reality—but, humans are the stewards.  Fast forward to present day and a new revolution is underway: The Digital Revolution.

As past research has found a link between happiness and a relationship with nature in adults, the authors of the paper published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology wanted to see if the same is true in kids. The research involved 296 children in a northwestern Mexican city, who were aged between 9 to 12. The team measured how connected the participants felt to nature by asking them to rate how much they enjoyed activities like seeing wild flowers and interacting with animals. They also assessed the children's attitude towards sustainability, by asking them questions about behaviors which the team deemed to be related: altruism, equality, frugality, and being eco-friendly. That included asking whether they would give away money and used clothing, and quizzing them on their views on equality, and saving water. https://www.newsweek.com/children-who-feel-connected-nature-likely-happier-study-suggests-1488738
