Big piece in the Washington Post yesterday about how kids never get outdoors anymore. The basic story is always out there, but is enjoying a flourishing resurgence thanks to some new statistics. It has been all over the place the past week or so.

So what does this mean for environmentalism in the long run? Who knows. One thing is for sure: it validates the need to frame our conversation around the idea that The Environment is not just something that you visit. From purple mountains majesty to your back yard, your dinner plate, and on rover's flea collar.  http://www.simplesteps.org/
