The UN Plan for Your Mental Health The UN Plan for Your Mental Health

Here is a website you really should visit: http://www.secondnature.org/

Second Nature... "is dedicated to accelerating a process of transformation in higher education. We guide and nurture these institutions in their quest to make sustainability an integral part of the institution and to help expand their efforts to make human activity sustainable. In a sustainable world, we imagine society would celebrate cultural diversity and increase the biological diversity and complexity of the ecosystems on which we all depend. Simultaneously, we would have stabilized population and resource consumption at a level that is within the carrying capacity of Earth's ecosystems. To attain this, we must reinvent the world socially, economically and environmentally."

I hope you can counter this sort of thing. Perhaps you can get some ideas from their strategies.
