Going to Green
A Standards-Based Environmental Education Curriculum for Schools, Colleges, and Communities
"The Edens Lost & Found series is an important addition to material available to introduce students at all levels to environmental values. The presentation of some hard lessons regarding success and failure, and how much time and effort go into trying to change our neighborhoods and cities, makes this series unique. I look forward to the next opportunity that I have to use the Edens Lost & Found series, and enthusiastically recommend it to educators at all levels."
—Greg Andranovich, PhD, Professor of Political Science, California State University, Los Angeles
