How can we incorporate more nature into our lives?

How can we incorporate more nature into our lives? And what's at stake if we don't? On the next Your Call, we'll speak with Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods and The Nature Principle. Louv, who coined the term, "nature-deficit disorder," says, "The more high-tech we become, the more nature we need." Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. So how can we integrate what Louv calls "vitamin N" into our lives? It's Your Call with Shirin Sadeghi, and you.

Guest:
Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods and The Nature Principle

Dr. Stephen Kellert, professor emeritus of social ecology and senior research scholar at the Yale University School of Forestry and Environmental Studies; author of Building for Life: Designing and Understanding the Human-Nature Connection.
