Taming Toxins in the Wild West

This is an interactive learning environment for identifying the connectivity between our choices and protecting the natural wonders that inspire us. Skilled facilitator and sustainability expert, Sharon Patterson, will introduce several real life scenarios and map a process for not only connecting issues but for creating solutions. We will explore water supplies and how to safely replenish rather than deplete them; sources of energy and opportunities to conserve it in our homes, businesses and schools; and, rethinking the products we use to reduce the toxins that sicken our society. You can anticipate a ‘world cafĂ©’ type of format in which lively group discussions transpire into concrete ideas to take home and transform your world in small ways that generate significant impact on our larger communities and ecosystems.
