How to treat our environment |
Seth from USA |
When I encounter a new culture I am immediately drawn to their music and their cuisine. I love engaging in these parts of a culture because they are so intrinsic to what makes a culture unique. But maybe even more than that I love learning about their mythologies and legends. Around the world people groups have a wide variety of myths and yet they all have similar strains as well. I think people should learn from the legends so they can see how all people share a common father and mother and that Aboriginal people are no different from European humans besides their unique culture. |

Connection to the land! It is a sad fact that we have lost this connection we can no longer navigate track animals and survive without a host of gadgets. We no longer have any bush skills. Generally Euro-Australian culture is artificial and materialistic with no [or limited at best] connection to country. |
