Environmental education (EE) has been deemed capable to re-connect today′s youth with the natural environment, thus helping them to become more ecologically responsible citizens. Put differently, EE must be able to challenge people′s perceived sense of dis-connection from the planet. This chapter explores ways of nurturing the re-examination of our co-responsibility to life by investigating the content of one course assignment (reading response) submitted by a student teacher and the narratives and actions of a group of young people who embarked on a 10-day canoe trip in Canada. The discussion that follows also serves as a segue into an introduction to the structure of the book.
