Popis: In this chapter, we address the complex nature of environmental education by highlighting some of the ways in which language—specifically, root metaphors—perpetuates the ongoing disconnection of humans and the natural world. We make connections to insights about an established learning garden alternative placement and eco-mentorship program that reflect sustainable environmental education (EE) practices and help pre-service teachers re-establish a deeper connection between themselves and their natural environments.
