_URBAN ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION REVIEW_ EXPLORES HOW ENVIRONMENTAL
EDUCATION CAN CONTRIBUTE TO URBAN SUSTAINABILITY. Urban environmental
education includes any practices that create learning opportunities to
foster individual and community well-being and environmental quality
in cities. It fosters novel educational approaches and helps debunk
common assumptions that cities are ecologically barren and that city
people don't care for, or need, urban nature or a healthy environment.
Topics in _Urban Environmental Education Review_ range from the urban
context to theoretical underpinnings, educational settings,
participants, and educational approaches in urban environmental
education. Chapters integrate research and practice to help aspiring
and practicing environmental educators, urban planners, and other
environmental leaders achieve their goals in terms of education, youth
and community development, and environmental quality in cities.
