Everyone is welcome to join us at Radha to ORGANISE our PROACTIVE RESPONSES to the effects of Climate Change and Peak Oil.
PLEASE PASS THIS INVITATION ON TO INTERESTED GROUPS INDIVIDUALS AND MEDIA
At the last meeting we were introduced to the concept of relocalisation by Julian Darley and in groups we explored scenarios of a post-carbon world.
On Saturday September 17, 2005, we will discuss where to start with our individual and group responses and will take the first steps towards allocating organizational responsibilities in this new Relocalisation Network.
Reminder:
Please try to bring two friends, family members or associates to the meeting who live within easy walking distance of your home, so that we can start to seed community where we live.
For more on the concept of seeding community – please consider attending Permaculture Strategies in a World of Declining Fossil Fuel with David Holmgren this Saturday afternoon at UBC hosted by the Vancouver Permaculture Network. http://www.alternatives.com/vpn/
Hurricane Katrina has spotlighted many things that are relevant to the work that we are undertaking. On today’s Democracy Now webcast (web radio, web TV and text options) there is extensive coverage of the role that citizens are playing by rescuing and by caring for their fellow citizens, and in the rebuilding of the city of New Orleans. (Tuesday, September 6th, 2005 - New Orleans Residents Rescue Their Neighbors in Absence of Government Response - http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=05/09/06/149240)
For a perspective on how the effects of the hurricane is bringing attention to the growing fuel crisis, take a look at: YOU BET YOUR LIFE By Michael C. Ruppert - http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/090205_bet_life.shtml

*Access to this venue is, unfortunately, not possible for motorised wheelchairs because of the staircase. People with mobility disabilities who can be assisted up the stairs and whose wheelchairs can be brought upstairs will find, ironically, that once inside, the facility is designed to be accessable. My intention over the medium term is to encourage meetings in accessible locations and this should become easier as we split into smaller working groups.
