But strategies and choices exist that lead to a happier outcome.</p> 260 <p class="p_text text-left" style="padding-right:7px"> 261 These environmental systems lessons contain activities and research about sustainability, land, air, and water for students to explore. Systems thinking tools help them discover ways to create an environment for the future that has the ability to regenerate as well as sustain. Because âthe environmentâ is not a single, isolated system, all aspects of civilization are bound together in an interconnected web. Social justice, public health, and economic prosperity all depend on a healthy environment that is consistently regenerating. 262</p> 263 <p class="p_text text-left" style="padding-right:7px"><a href="http://www.clexchange.org/nowwhat/">Learn More...</a></p> 264 265 <p class="p_text text-left" style="padding-right:7px"> 266 Dig deeper into the Now What? book with a blog hosted by the author, Alan Ticotsky.
