This is an amazing idea... And I agree it covers all subjects within education. I believe one of the more important movements toward "saving" our planet from ourselves is to develop strong localized food production systems. I particularly find the permaculture movement will have a good impact in this area. I while back I started a permaculture page and I would encourage others with localized food production skills and knowledge to contribute to this area. http://wikieducator.org/Permaculture
Be Well... And Happy New Decade!
