Nature Literacy

To me, nature literacy is the ability to read and appreciate all of the many things that nature has to offer. While there are some who still admire its beauty, for most of our generation it has been surpassed by things such as the internet. Viewing pictures of nature on the internet is not nearly the same as experiencing them firsthand. I know that I am not very nature literate, since I would much rather spend the day fiddling with technology than viewing the many stories nature has to offer. I know that it has these stories; I just think that I, and many others in my generation, have placed nature at a much lower level of importance than it actually should be.
