It's time for a positive, new way to look at our relationship with our home planet. It's time for each of us to create our own sustainable, Earth friendly environmental handprints.
You may know what your ecological footprint is already. Maybe you have used an online calculator to add up all the resources you require to live on a daily basis. Now, you get to decide what complementary actions you want to take heal the life systems on which all life depends. In short – footprints are what you use and handprints are what you give back to the earth.
This workshop is based on a new book at the Rockingham Library titled Our Environmental Handprints: Recover the Land, Reverse Global Warming, Reclaim the Future by Jon Biemer, published this year, 2021.
Join me for a free, one hour, outdoor workshop to get you started. Saturday, Oct. 16 from 1:30 – 2:30 PM in Bellows Falls. I will guide you through the steps to celebrate the actions you have already taken and inspire you to map out your future goals for lending a hand to Mother Gaia.
In order to be COVID safe, we will meet outside with good physical distancing and I will also be wearing a mask (you are welcome to do that, too.) Space is limited to seven places for either individuals or family groups. If you can't come for this event, I will be keeping a list of people to notify of future Handprint Workshops. Let me know if you want to be added to the list.
Reserve your seat by calling 802-275-4646 before Friday, Oct. 15 at 6 PM. First call, first seated.
We need both our hands and our feet to keep our balance on the Earth!
