ACTION FOR CHANGE IN A WORLD BURNING UP
DISRUPT THE SYSTEM. CHANGE THE LIFESTYLE
Contact: Jen email:
This evening workshop will consist of a Short Talk and Questions and Answers.
Small Groups will form to share concerns and a Summing Up to conclude.
We will explore ways to challenge national, state and local government, demand a change in education to an emphasis on a sustainable way of life and with a critique of the corporate world – fossil fuel industry, farming, fashion and transport. Individuals, families and communities have to walk the talk – major changes in diet, moderation of lifestyle, reduction of use of vehicles, conservation of energy at home/work and dedication to real change as the major priority.
