Book Description
Stormathon took conception on the brink of a pandemic--the COVID-19, a storm that countries around the world will never forget. There are situations that arise in life that may feel like a storm. Tomorrow isn't promised, and if we're fortunate to behold it, we should be prepared, for not only the natural storms we may encounter but also the spiritual warfare and battles we face daily. With God, all things are possible. With him, we can endure and weather any storm we may encounter. As a forecast has been predicted, let us watch and pray. We can learn to prepare for life's storms and brace for the impact. We can stand guard with spiritual armor on and utilize battle strategies to withstand the attack and weather the storm. Even in the aftermath, when we are filled with questions and trying to sort out the next steps, we can have confidence in the Lord who is mightier than any storm we face. We will make it through the storm, whether a pandemic, temptations, or general life stressors. Accepting God and his aid is the best decision one could ever make. Storms have a way of sensitizing us to the struggles of others. Together we can weather life's storms. We are in a race--on your mark, get set, go. Let us continue in this Christian race, our personal stormathon to run.

Author: Bill Scott

Category : Sustainable development
Languages : en

Book Description
It is now clear that human activity has influenced how the biosphere supports life on Earth, and given rise to a set of connected environmental and social problems. In response to the challenge that these problems present, a series of international conferences and summits led to discussions of sustainable development and the core dilemma of our time: How can we all live well, now and in the future, without compromising the ability of the planet to enable us all to live well? This book identifies the main issues and challenges we now face; it explains the ideas that underpin them and their interconnection, and discusses a range of strategies through which they might be addressed and possibly resolved. These cover things that governments might do, what businesses and large organisations can contribute, and the scope for individuals, families and communities to get involved. This book is for everyone who cares about such challenges, and wants to know more about them.

Higher Education for Sustainable Development
Author: Kerry Shephard
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 113754841X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
This book asks how higher education should approach the task of educating for sustainability and then sets to answering it. It provides a guide for those who advocate for sustainability and for those who do not and makes a point of emphasising that all in higher education have the capacity and willingness to contribute in some way. The challenge is to find an approach that unifies the efforts of higher education teachers towards sustainability objectives, rather than dividing them. People at universities across the world were consulted and a grounded theory was devised. This encourages all university teachers to teach what they want to teach openly and honestly, about sustainability or not; but on the way to ensure that their students develop the critical skills that will enable them to fully understand what is being taught and what they are learning.
