Brief Course Description:
To really change a fundamentally flawed system of beliefs and values that together make up a community's way of viewing reality we need to change our current paradigm: which dictates that more stuff is better, that infinite economic growth is desirable and possible, and that pollution is the price of progress. To actually turn things around, we need to address a different paradigm based on the values of sustainability, justice, health, and community.
This course is about giving each person a chance to transform our culture of consumption and waste into a culture that prioritizes social and ecological wellbeing. It is possible and essential for each person to plug in, become informed, to learn to find their voice and passion.
