A Grassroots
Remedy
A) Most of us spend our lives seeking
the natural world.
To this end, we walk
the dog, play golf, go fishing, sit in
the garden, drink outside rather than
inside the pub, have a
picnic, live in
the suburbs, go to the seaside, buy a weekend
place in the country. The most popular
leisure activity in
Britain is going
for a walk. And when joggers
(
慢跑者
) jog,
they
don't run the streets. Every one of the
minstinctively
heads to the park or the
river. It is my profound belief that
not only do we all need nature, but we
all seek nature,
whether we know we are
doing so or not.

(
丧失
) , I spent my boyhood
climbing trees on
Stratham Common,

robbed of these an cientfreedoms, due
to problems like crime,
traffic, the
loss of the open spaces and odd new perceptions
about what is best for children, that
is to say, things that
can be bought,
rather than things that can be found.
