Whether you're a teacher eager to empower your students, or a student ready to make a difference, you'll find practical steps, real-life stories, and creative ideas and resources to help you launch and grow a thriving Environmental Action Club. To all of the readers who buy this book- Do YOU feel that there is nothing that you can do as an Environmental Activist? Are you thinking – I am just one person– what can I do that can help? Let this book start you on your journey to find your swarm and to start taking actions! We all have a responsibility, to humankind, to do better as individuals to take climate action by modifying our personal habits and behaviors. And, more importantly, we have a responsibility to take climate action by making our voices heard, reaching out to the media, government representatives and corporate leaders. We must vote with our voices and our ballots and vote with our dollars, supporting the people, organizations and companies that embrace a relevant and realistic environmental agenda. As individuals and collectively, we can and must make a difference. "The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it" – Robert Swan, historian, explorer and activist. "The greatest danger to our future is apathy" – Dr Jane Goodall, primatologist and anthropologist.

We need less DOOMERISM and more DOMOREISM! Let's get started!

About The Author

Peter Suchmann was born in England and came to the US in 1962 with his family. He found his career path in education after many years in the toy industry working part time for the K.B Toy and Hobby Corporation. After graduating from college with an Education Degree, he worked as an Elementary Science Teacher (K-6), followed by a tenure track position as a Middle School Science Teacher. He soon thereafter became the Middle School Science Department Head, after earning his Administrative Degree from MCLA. He especially enjoyed teaching his beloved Earth Science curriculum and facilitating the Environmental Club in the school. After retiring, he established a 3D printing business on Long Island, consulting with and selling to local schools and libraries. He soon sold that business (machines were way too glitchy in those early years) and found himself pulled back into the classroom, this time as a part time High School Science Research Teacher on Long Island. There he was presented with an endowed classroom, that he designed as a Makerspace and offered an elective in science research to motivated students who volunteered for his class. In the Makerspace they played with robots, A.I, virtual reality, they built giant ant farms and produced a TV series called SCITECH Long Island with a local Public Access TV studio. It was so much fun! One student and I worked for a year on an independent research project during which we developed a children's book (with Augmented Reality videos linked to the content of the story) that we were able to get into Amazon and Barnes and Noble. During the early years in his teaching career, he became an educational consultant and co-owner of Magic Moments with Class Inc.- a small business presenting discrepant events, magic and illusion for critical thinking skills, performing arts and EDUCATIONAL FUN in the classroom. He created and marketed simple to learn Magic Kits for teachers because "every teacher needs a bag of tricks"! His other motto was "before you can teach them, you have to get their attention"! He served on the original Board of the Make - A - Wish Foundation on Long Island, using magic to break the ice with wish kids and discovering what their individual wishes really were. Working with a local Public Access TV studio he helped produce almost 50 TV shows on topics of interest to educators and students. He was the creator of a program called "Show Me the Science" an award-winning broadcast on local cable channels that took First Place in the 2012 Alliance for Community Media - in the NE Regional Video Festival. Over the years he served on the Teachers Advisory committee of the National Environmental Education Foundation, the Long Island Arts Alliance, the Long Island Youth Summit and the Long Island Operation S.P.L.A.S.H. Education Committee. He has authored a family history based upon his parents rescue in 1938 from Nazi Austria and their journey to England on the Kindertransport. He now serves as a Board member of the Kindertransport Association. His most recent project is this eBook series and the upcoming development of a High School Level global, free, climate competition and portal along with Ecoactus.org whose educational content in their existing college level Climate Boot Camp was developed along with the Climate Reality Project and the Harvard Alumni for Climate and the Environment. Next on his list of "special Projects" is the marketing of the Empathizer Brain Strainer – his patent pending invention which will help users from kindergarten through adulthood to develop empathy for and an understanding of learning disabilities such a dyslexia and dyspraxia and the stresses these disabilities can cause. His hope is that this will cut down on bullying in schools and in the workplace. The world needs more EMPATHY! Don't you agree?
