"In 1978 there was nothing quite like Permaculture. Twenty-eight 
years later Permaculture laps the globe, with over 4000 projects 
across 120 countries. Australian biologist Bill Mollison, founder of 
the Permaculture movement, has taught and developed projects from the 
Arctic through Sub-tropics, and Equatorial regions on the planet. He 
has been named Australia's "Man of the Year", and in 1981 received 
the prestigious Right Livelihood Award. There are few countries left 
in the world where he has not planted the seeds of Permaculture".

         Join Santa Barbara Permaculture Network for an evening of 
three films featuring Bill Mollison, his life and work. In 1997 Bill 
Mollison came to California teaching a course in Ojai, CA, initiating 
a ground swell of interest that helped create many local 
organizations, including South Coast Permaculture Guild, Santa 
Barbara Permaculture Network, the Ojai Permaculture Institute, San 
Luis Obispo Permaculture Guild, Santa Cruz Permaculture Guild and 
others. Come hear the history of Permaculture and celebrate 10 years 
of Permaculture in Santa Barbara.

Films to be shown:

    * In Grave Danger of Falling Food: Earliest permaculture flick, 
humorous, campy in nature, describes the destructive nature of modern 
agriculture with Permaculture's proposal of a different system, one 
that mimics nature.
    * The Global Gardener: Bill Mollison travels the globe viewing 
Permaculture sites & solutions on five continents.
    * An Australian Biography: Bill Mollison the Man, complex in 
nature, brilliant in contributions, what makes him tick?
The event takes place at the downtown Santa Barbara Public Library, 
40 E. Anapamu St, Santa Barbara, CA, on Thursday, December 13, 7pm 
for a donation of $5. No reservations are needed, for more info,
