What would our lives be like if our days and nights were as immersed in nature as they are in technology?

Kids are plugged into some sort of electronic medium 44 hours per week.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reports that the number of overweight adult Americans increased over 60 percent between 1991 and 2000. According to CDC data, the U.S. population of overweight children between ages two and five increased by almost 36 percent from 1989 to 1999.

There is a real world, beyond the glass, for children who look, for those whose parents encourage them to truly see.

Kids and adults pay a price for too much tech, and it's not wholesale.

A natural environment is far more complex than any playing field.

Our kids are actually doing what we told them to do when they sit in front of that TV all day or in front of that computer game all day. The society is telling kids unconsciously that nature's in the past. It really doesn't count anymore, that the future is in electronics, and besides, the bogeyman is in the woods.
