Green Visions

GREEN VISIONS is about how a spirit of innovation and pleasure can be brought into solving our environmental problems. Starting from the premise that many of our current attitudes are destroying the natural world, how might we heal the planet, and thus ourselves, in ways that are creative and playful? Can we recognize our world not as commodity, but as a sacred creation that will support us best, the more creatively we live on it? Topics will include: school gardens, hospital healing gardens, conscious birth and death practices, youth and the environment, mask-making and healing, new perceptions of water, citizen exchanges with Russian environmentalists, and the" living locally" movement.
