Recenzii

"Linda Goldman offers wise intentional and practical ways to enlist and empower children, parents, and teachers and influencers to awaken the world’s consciousness, to ring the fire bell in the night. I fear that unless Linda Goldman’s work becomes widely read and implemented, a future generation will demand of me and millions of my contemporaries: ‘And what did you do to alleviate climate change?’ Goldman offers a blueprint for our imaginations and her ideas will inspire the imaginations and creativities of many." — Harold Ivan Smith, DMin, FT, author of ABCs of Healthy Grieving
"The mess we’ve made of the earth is causing existential anxiety for today’s youth, ignited by record-breaking fires, floods, and the covid-19 pandemic, and other disturbing environmental realities. This book could not be timelier. Jump in and join the youth and organizations working hard to make a difference." — Donna Schuurman, EdD, FT, senior director of advocacy and training at the Dougy Center: The National Grief Center for Children and Families
"In this newest book, Linda Goldman applies her years of expertise in the field of grief and loss to the struggles faced by today’s youth. Goldman uses case studies and practical techniques to help us help today’s young people process grief and loss and begin to cope with the anxiety and depression. I am confident that this will be a great resource to help us move to action and hope." — Emilio Parga, MeD, founder of the Solace Tree Center for Grieving Children
"This book shows that climate change awareness is not just about sharing concerns about the future—it is about taking action, particularly by living more sustainably, eating less meat, the four R’s, and, most importantly, demanding better climate laws from our local politicians." — Barton Rubenstein, cofounder of the Mother Earth Project and Parachutes for the Planet
"Goldman expertly interweaves her erudite knowledge of the impact of grief and loss in children with the modern world’s current global warming crisis. In this volume, the existential dread that we see in our youth from the impending environmental disasters going on all around us is balanced with expressive, familial, and community-based projects toward inner healing for both individuals and Mother Nature herself. A groundbreaking, timely, much-needed book to help us help our youth become actionable, mindful, and respectful of the planet we must protect in a symbiosis to ultimately protect humanity." — Eric J. Green, PhD, author of The Handbook of Jungian Play Therapy
