Today on the Dr. K show with Dr. Michael Karlfeldt, Dr. Karlfeldt interviews Richard Loeve, an acclaimed nature journalist and author of several books including "Last Child in the Woods" and "Our Wild Calling." Loeve discusses his personal connection to nature from childhood and how it inspired his work promoting the importance of reconnecting children with the natural world. He shares insights about the Children and Nature Network, which he co-founded to support this movement. The conversation explores how technology, parental fear, and urban design have contributed to children's disconnection from nature, while highlighting the substantial scientific evidence for nature's benefits on physical and mental health. Loeve explains how some pediatricians are now "prescribing nature" as a treatment approach, listing parks and open spaces in their databases to help families reconnect with the outdoors. Loeve also discusses his newest book "Our Wild Calling," which examines the powerful bonds between humans and animals, both wild and domesticated. He shares stories of life-changing encounters with wildlife and explains how these connections can address what he calls an "epidemic of loneliness" while improving our emotional and physical wellbeing through meaningful engagement with the natural world.
