We're more well-informed than any generation before us, so we're all aware of the enormity and complexity of the global challenges facing us - sub-prime mortgage fiasco, climate change, peak oil, rising health care costs, etc.. It's time to move past the doom and gloom. As individuals and as a community how do we create the type of world we want to live in? Using a lively interactive process, this workshop will review the latest trends and help you find the answers to questions like: - How to live a more eco-logically and eco-nomically compatible lifestyle?
- How can the local economy respond to global pressures and still thrive?
- How will your work and home life be impacted and what will food and energy bills look like in a few years?
- What kinds of businesses can lead to an economy where health = wealth?
Join us for a daylong exploration of global trends that will change our lives. We'll review the latest information on critical global challenges. We'll explore which issues will have the greatest local impact and brainstorm ways we can prepare and innovate as individuals, and as a community. |
