Adaptation to Environment in Education

In some of Louv's readings, he talks about how children's stress levels minimize if they spend time outside. I can believe that! As a child, I was very sheltered when it came to anything that had to do with environment or "going green". When it comes to education in schools, P.E can now even be offered online. Tell me how that makes any sense? "Physical" education online. Sounds like a joke to me. If people, both children and adults, just took more time in taking in everything around them, the world would be looked at so differently. It's important for children growing up to stay connected with the outdoors. No one should be too sheltered, like I was, in knowing and being educated about the world we live in.
