If you want to learn about the earth, you’re gonna have to get your hands dirty.   That’s the philosophy of environmental educator David Sobel: senior faculty member at Antioch University New England, and author of the book "Beyond Ecophobia". His recent article “Look, Don’t Touch” was featured in the latest edition of Orion Magazine.
