When: Tuesday, January 19th, 7-9PM
Where: 121 Heatley Avenue

“Living on Earth as if we want to stay”

Issues of climate, energy and economic stability are all related to the fact that human activity has now grown to touch planetary limits.

No amount of public relations or technical fixes can perpetuate the system that has grown humankind from insignificance to where we affect everything on Earth. It took thousands of doublings in our activity to bring us to our present size. Another doubling would fill another whole planet.

Mike Nickerson has spent 35 years studying cultural evolution, in particular, how our societies might make the transition to sustainability. He is the author of “Life, Money and Illusion; Living on Earth as if we want to stay” recently published in its second edition by New Society Publishers. Mike will be the guest of Village Vancouver and the Vancouver Peak Oil Group on Tuesday, January 19th, 7:00 – 9:00 pm at 121 Heatley Ave. to facilitate a discussion about adapting to our changing times.
