talk
Starhawk will take part in the Green Festival. In addition to lecture

"Making
the Transition"
Climate change calls us to make an enormous transition
very rapidly—changing our economy, our energy systems, our food
growing systems, our patterns of work, socializing and play—and
doing it now, not sometime in the vague future. But how do we do it? What
do we say "no" to—and even more importantly, how do we say "yes"
to a clear vision of the future we want to create? Drawing on her decades
of practice in earth-based spirituality, activism and permaculture, Starhawk
outlines the principles, policies and practices that lead to true abundance
and resilience.
Booksigning to follow.
