Awakening The Dreamer

I spent the afternoon today listening to a symposium on sustainability at the Sonoma Community Center, presented by volunteers from the Pachamama Alliance. The presentation was powerful, heartfelt, interactive and extremely alarming. But it was also fact-filled, positive and solution oriented. The problems we face are daunting, but absolutely within our reach to solve—if we can collectively muster the will to make the needed changes.

I highly recommend that you look up this fine organization and attend their next symposium. While I have attended many environmental presentations in the past year, this one stands out. You can visit their web site and see a short movie which explains their views on the crisis that is here, and how we need to engage everyone to solve it.
