Seeing Systems: Peace, Justice and Sustainability door Northwest Earth Institute
A workbook and discussion course on seeing systems and how they work for or against peace, justice and sustainability
Good discussion guide for the interrelationship of peace, justice and sustainability of our planet.
A Different Way provides an opportunity to reconnect with your values and discover how simple living intersects with sustainability -- at the personal and global levels.
From the Introduction:
"Recently the term 'sustainability' has become so popularized and commercialized it is hard to know what it means, if anything at all. We offer this course as an opportunity to move beyond the hype to explore sustainability more deeply.
"The authors included in the course examine sustainability from individual, societal and global perspectives. The readings are intended to invoke meaningful discussion. Each week as you meet with your discussion group, we invite you to bring your own experience and critical thinking to the process. Whether you agree or disagree, you will have an opportunity to clarify your views and values. Ultimately, we hope this process inspires you and others to make choices to live more sustainably.
"The course is comprised of seven sessions, designed for weekly discussion. Each session includes readings, questions for the group, a 'Putting It into Practice' list of suggested actions and 'Further Readings and Resources.' The course also includes an Action Plan to guide you in putting sustainability into practice.
".... Nearly twenty years ago, NWEI founders Dick and Jeanne Roy began this work of bringing people together to discuss the important issues of our times. Since then, over 100,000 people have taken NWEI courses and been inspired to take responsibility for Earth. We trust that you too will find this experience to be of deep and lasting value." pg. 5… (meer)
