PLANETWALKER(ISBN=9781426204050) 下载 pdf 2025 网盘 epub 在线 mobi 免费

　　When the struggle to save oil-soaked birds and restore

blackened beaches left him feeling frustrated and helpless, John

Francis decided to take a more fundamental and personal stand—he

stopped using all forms of motorized transportation. Soon after

embarking on this quest that would span two decades and two

continents, he took a vow of silence that endured for 17 years. It

began as a silent environmental protest, but as a young

African-American man, walking across the country in the early

1970s, his idea of "the environment" expanded beyond concern about

pollution and loss of habitat to include how we humans treat each

other and how we can better communicate and work together to

benefit the earth.

Through his silence and walking, he learned to listen, and along

the way, earned college and graduate degrees in science and

environmental studies. An amazing human-interest story with a vital

message, Planetwalker is also an engaging coming-of-age

pilgrimage.
