Thank you Sean. Mobilizing those community members knowledgeable about permaculture design will have a great impact.
I would love to share with the group the sustainability goals of the Santa Monica Sustainable City Plan if/when appropriate. It may provide a clear picture on how to measure movement toward sustainability. If it would be helpful, I could also discuss what is happening in the community and what is lacking.
Also, I have the event on my calendar. Would you like me to include it in my Sustainable Santa Monica Newsletter (www.sustainablesantamonica.org)? If so, what is the agenda for the evening and who should attend?
Additionally, Larry Santoyo and I are planning some into to permaculture classes that might fit nicely with growing the local network.
Thank you.
