SAGE at CBC and Mike Nickerson

Tad and I will be on the CBC Center Stage today - Monday, June 16 during the lunch hour, to talk about SAGE, so if you have only heard about us so far and want to meet us in person ;), come on down to the studio at Edmonton City Center and give us some moral support. Other special guests will be Michael Kalmanovitch of Earth's General Store, and Conrad Norbert of Green Edmonton.

Don't forget about our upcoming Community Meeting next Wednesday (June 18 at 7pm at the Village). The topic is Greening your Home, and our special guests are Stephani Carter of Green Alberta and EcoAmmo, Shanthu and Godo of Carbon Busters and Andrea Jones of Raising Spaces.

We are hosting a touring author at 7pm on June 25 (at the Village-10429-79 avenue). Mike Nickerson is travelling across the country promoting his new book, Life, Money and Illusion. The book launches a review of economic expansion. It examines how growth came to be a goal and how that goal, though once hugely beneficial, is now the propellant for catastrophe. Then, by showing how the economy can be restructured to remain within planetary limits, it points the way to a sustainable future. Suggested donation of $10 - $20 to support Mike on his tour.
