What would it take to live<\/em> within the limits of the places we call home<\/em><\/strong> – while also living responsibly as citizens of this planet?<\/em><\/strong>

All life on Earth shares only one planet.  Yet, as the dominant species, we have weakened our connections to the rest of life and each other.  We now face cascading global and local challenges that will require levels of cooperation unlike anything humans have done before. What will it take to rekindle those connections? How do we weave the knowledge from the work already happening on the ground throughout our bioregion?  How do we honour \u2018story of place\u2019 along with the indigenous and spiritual dimensions of this work? Shouldn’t we be talking about this?
