Review Quotes: "The need for this book is essential. This book provides needed respect for world cultures, ethnicities, regions, religions, politics, genders, sexualities, and views regarding Environmental Education. The authors break down barriers of ethnocentrism, specifically the White and Western view of Environmental Education, and open an inclusive dialogue to advance the conversation forward in an interconnected way. Provided in the chapters are thought-provoking insights that elicit movement in a positive, collaborative direction by changing the current narrative. The diversity of experience, ideas, and contexts presented help to build a global community of change-makers to stop a dire environmental future. The wisdom in this book creates an opportunity to learn, grow, and make a significant change on a global scale and passionate commonality for the environment through education." --Shannon McLean-Minch, Elementary School Principal, Community Montessori, Boulder Valley School District, Boulder, Colorado, USA
