As though that is not enough\, some environmentalists say we are screwed–it’s game over. Is that true? What are we supposed to do with that kind of information? Should we have hope? Should we be in despair? \nWhat\, in fact\, should we do? Colin Beavan\, aka No Impact Man\, talks about embracing uncertainty and mystery–what some people call Sacred Agnosticism–to help us find our own personal paths to helping ourselves and others. \nFacilitated by Advanced Certified Jivamukti Teachers Tamar Samir & Ximena Savitch.  All No Impact Week events are free. You can join any of the events\, but we highly recommend you join the whole week\, and especially the GIVE BACK DAY on Thursday\, July 24\, 10am-2pm.

SUMMARY:Composting: Worm Bins for the Apartment Dweller
DESCRIPTION:Image:  www.howstuffworks.com \nDid you know that almost 20% of New York City’s landfill contributions are compostable food scraps? These scraps make gorgeous fertilizer for your soil\, but when tossed in the trash they contribute to the greenhouse gasses laying waste to our environment. Keep them out of landfills\, save money on gardening supplies\, and build healthy soils by learning how to compost at home! \nUnfortunately we here in the big city can’t just “throw it over the fence” like our rural friends. We also have to grapple with smelly piles stinking up our tiny apartments\, crawly intruders\, and whiny neighbors. Veteran Urban Farmer Zach Pickens has solutions to all these challenges! He’ll give us the guidance and advice we need to get our simple composting system up and running. In this class\, we will cover the basics of composting\, discuss the best methods being used in urban areas\, and talk about the tools and resources we need to make our own soil. Then he’ll show us how to build our own indoor worm composting bins and send us home with a materials list and step-by-step instructions to recreate the set-up he demonstrated! \nBuy tickets here.

SUMMARY:Retrofitting Industrial Civilization w/ Andrew Faust
DESCRIPTION:The foundation of civilization as we know it\, and the aspects of it that we value depend upon a stable and well designed agricultural system\, economic system\, and energy system.  Bioregional permaculture is retrofitting the global import/export long distance\, centralized mass production\, fossil fueled and radioactive infrastructure to be more regionally self-reliant in diversified\, resilient\, ecologically intelligent\, human scale and prosperous ways. It is about the whole system. \nJoin us for this inspiring talk with Andrew Faust at Brooklyn Permaculture Meetup! \n$5 Suggested donation – no one turned away! \nPermaculture is a whole systems design science that is positively changing the way people think and interact with Earth. Turn problems into solutions by joining us in the discussion\, design and implementation of projects in and around Brooklyn and the surrounding region. We are looking to create an active group of motivated beings that want to contribute to all the positive change that is happening in our region and the world. This Meetup will be lead by Andrew Faust and occasional visiting friends. Andrew is director at Center for Bioregional Living which since 2007 has been training permaculture designers in NYC and starting June 1st 2012 at their rural campus in Ellenville\, NY.
