So this week in class we watched a video on different religious view points on environmental ideals. The one that stood out to me most was the one about the Jewish kid camp. It was nice to see how they tied together religion and the environment. I think children enjoy staying faithful to their church, and if they are able to blend in the environmental aspects to the camp, the children will be able to tie the two together. When they think about their religion they will also think about their environment. Its a great connection to have. I did see one potential problem to the solution in the movie. Unfortunately, the camp presented by the movie seem to portray people that are extremist environmentalist. These people could scare away the kids. Kids are always trying to find "cool" people that they should follow. But these guys are obviously not in the "cool" book. I think it could cause the kids to turn the other eye and do the exact opposite of the leaders of the camp. I think having a good middle ground for the employees would help spread the message much better.
