Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Association for the Study of Literature and Environment (ASLE) is the principal professional association for American and international scholars of ecocriticism and environmental humanities. It was founded in 1992 at a special session of the Western Literature Association conference in Reno, Nevada for the purpose of "sharing of facts, ideas, and texts concerning the study of literature and the environment."The association hosts a biennial conference since 1993, alternating with symposia in non-conference years. Its journal is—Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment (ISLE)—a quarterly published by Oxford University Press, in which the most current scholarship in the rapidly evolving field of environmental humanities can often be found.As of 2018 the co-presidents of ASLE are Anthony Lioi at the Juilliard School in New York City and Christoph Irmscher of Indiana University, Bloomington. The 13th Conference will be held at University of California, Davis, from June 25-29, 2019, the first ASLE conference in the state of California.
