What the petition asks

Natural Enginering consists of material(tools,clothes)& soil science, foraging&ethnobotany(food,deodorant), building skills, permaculture, sustainability and many more areas of study and practice that allow us to interact with, and to live lovingly within the natural areas of our beautiful country.
All of us are intuitively captivated by the adventurous, innate area of natural engineering. As well as being instinctive, it is neurologically proven as a better way for a human being to live. And we crave it...We all have a right to be taught how to interact with the natural elements, and we are at a point in time in which we have an astounding amount of knowledge on how to do so in a sustainable, ethical manner. Natural Engineering should be intrinsic to schools & to our culture as humans.
