Lindzy,

I am also very interested in this topic.  I am working with a local nature preserve and part of their mission is to instill "stewardship" for the land and ecology.  But, despite all the great exhibits and activities on recycling, ecology, pollution, etc., that one term: STEWARDSHIP, has eluded us.  They have a small visitor space (physical and temporal) and we need ideas that are short and succinct.

In fact the only journal article referencing this based on Disney's Conservation Station within Animal Kingdom. Perhaps I am not looking in the right place, or with an appropriate search term, so I am hoping to get some help from you all. I know proving that change happened based on a one-time experience is difficult, but does that mean no one is trying this?
