Congratulations to beloved Neveh Channah and Neveh Shmuel high school teacher Arik Har Zahav on being awarded the “Environmental Hero” award by KKL and Yediot Aharonot!
When he first suggested teaching Environmental Science, “they thought I was crazy, just crazy,” Arik recounts. But Arik, who believes that the environment and religion are deeply interconnected, has already established Environmental Science tracks in three schools, including two of the OTS schools located in Gush Etzion. “In Israel, only crazy people really get things done,” he laughs.
