This is a handicapped-accessible location.
Biologist E. O. Wilson used the term biophilia to describe his theory that the profound connection humans feel toward the natural world is rooted in our biology and evolution. So why is it that many children today would rather watch Animal Planet on TV than go outside and look for real animals? As a culture, we may not be able to rely on our biology to keep us from destroying ourselves. Or can we? The good news is that even in this technological age, biophilia can be contagious. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, aunt or uncle or just a kid yourself, join this discussion led by GNC Naturalist Anne Jaffe Holmes, and learn how this holiday season can be a perfect time for contracting and sharing a good case of biophilia with the children you love!

Here’s a great way to help the
environment right now:
Get the
newsletter online.
The Lower Hudson Group posts Terra Firma on the Internet and
you can read it there instead of receiving it in the
mail. We’ll notify you
via e-mail each time a new issue is ready.
There are advantages. Your mailbox will be a little less
cluttered, the Sierra Club will spend a little less money
on printing and distributing newsletters and more on the
environment, and you’ll be able to see your
newsletter the minute it’s ready.
Interested? Send an e-mail message with the
subject line
“Give me Terra Firma on the Web” to pgrove24@gmail.com.
Be sure to include your Member #, which can be found on the
mailing address area on your newsletter or your Sierra
Magazine.
The e-mail address you send from will be the one to which
we will send each new issue notice.
