Title
Building Bridges, Changing Lives: Eco-Justice and Teacher Education
Description
Eco-justice pedagogy is an approach that addresses the necessity of sensitizing the students about the nature of the cultural and ecological changes occurring now on a worldwide scale. It includes a critical inquiry that helps students recognize and participate in the non-commodified aspects of community life. This paper emphasizes upon giving special attention to what teachers need to understand about how the language of the curriculum is based on root metaphors that organize thinking in ways that ignore environmental racism and the marginalization of different cultural approaches to community, not oriented toward dependency upon modern technology and consumerism.
