  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nature Spend Time Outside
    Rachel Carson said that we need the beauty and mysteries of the natural world for our spiritual and emotional development. Does that ring true for you? What are the implications for a culture that spends most of its time indoors?

    I absolutely agree. I think that without connections to the outdoors, my life personally feels less than optimal. It also makes me think about how important it is for us to incorporate biophilia principles into our built environment designs.
