You are invited to Be The Change that
Earth and all beings are calling for.

Our global ecological crisis
compels us to change our present course. Join with other concerned citizens to
co-create a sustainable, just and fulfilling human presence on this planet and
discover what it is to Be The Change.

The Be The Change Symposium is a
visually rich and inspiring response to climate change. Multi-media clips from
Desmond Tutu, Brian Swimme, Maude Barlow, Julia Butterfly Hill, Paul Hawken, and
other global leaders in social change reveal the nature of our predicament --
and an enlivening vision of our emerging future.

An interactive process
helps us confront today's sobering realities and empowers us to take personal
and collective action. Be The Change Circles provide the lively, community based
support we all need to shed old habits, make new lifestyle choices and spark
significant social change.

Come to a symposium this June, before summer
hiatus, and join the Be The Change circles arising in our community for ongoing
support.

The time to act is now. Act big, act small, but
act.

"I was so moved by the day that I've been talking it up to everybody I
know, having as light a footprint as possible, and reeling with the
possibilities of how far it could go."

- Carla

You will know what to do and when. And if you fail to act, then you will have still chosen. Whatever you do, do not allow yourself to stew in regret, for there you will surely find illness of every kind.

During the holiday season, it seems befitting to advocate for the preservation of Reindeer, or Caribou as they are known in Canada.  Help protect North America's remaining Caribou by learning more about their plight and by taking action, because if you're not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. That's what Keeping Down with the Jones' is all about.   Read the full story at http://keepingdownwiththejones.blogspot.com/2006/12/root-for-reindeer-this-holiday-season.html

If you find yourself saying, somebody should… then someone probably should – and that someone should be you!
The recent Got Hats project generated several volunteers and saw over 4,000 items of warmth collected from members of the community and delivered to shelters in the Downtown Eastside. We have chosen it as an example to share some ideas with you to help you make your own change happen.
