Document Summary
Education is knowing the story of the universe, how it began, how it came to be as it is, and the human role in the story. We need to know the story, the universe story, in all is resonances, in all its meanings. The universe story is the divine story, the human story, the story of the trees, the story of the rivers, of the stars, the planets, everything. It is as simple as a kindergarten tale, yet as complex as all cosmology and all knowledge and all history. Talks about how humans effect the earth"s evolution: shifting from the cenozoic to the ecozoic age, what is happening in our times is not just another historical transition or simply another cultural change. The devastation of the planet that we are bringing about is negating some hundreds of millions, even billions, of years of past development on the earth.
