[LBUZZELL at aol.com]

The Santa Barbara Permaculture Network, Santa Barbara City College and the  
SBCC Center of Sustainability will be screening the film "Last  Paradise" 
on Thursday, Oct 20th (see below for more info), so the Permaculture  Guild 
of Santa Barbara is canceling our Oct 20 meeting so as not to conflict. We  
will reschedule our "Patio Permaculture" event for Wed Nov 17th.

Our childhood playgrounds shape our  dreams
Our dreams shape our lives.
Our lives shape the playgrounds for  tomorrow's children.
And so the fate of the wilderness is bound in this  spiral.

A story of adventure and change, filmed over 45  years,
so we might relive the journey today---and better see our  tracks.

Hi  everyone,

Once again Santa Barbara Permaculture Network is  co-sponsoring an event 
with Santa Barbara City College (SBCC), and the SBCC  Center for 
Sustainability.  We began in 2005 when we brought  Permaculture co-founder, David 
Holmgren to Santa Barbara, and asked the SBCC  Environmental Horticultural 
department if they would like to be co-sponsors, and  have followed with many events 
and permaculture related speakers and programs  since then, because we saw 
the value of community colleges and their ability to  disseminate knowledge 
to a wide audience, in the most egalitarian  way.

Most recently, we helped develop and sponsor with the SBCC Center  for 
Sustainability, From Green Jobs, to Building the Blue Economy, with  Gunter 
Pauli, a 3 day event in April 2010, that resulted in an  Eco-entrepreneurship 
pilot program currently being developed at  SBCC.

That event encouraged us to recently attend the World Congress  on Zero 
Emissions Initiatives in Hawaii.  Gunter Pauli recognized us  personally and 
SBCC Blue Economy event several times.  We talked about the  
Eco-entrepreneurship pilot program a lot, great interest in this unique  model.  As a result, 
we will have lots of assistance from many helpful  people, many 
international speakers now coming our way, including His  Excellency, The Honorable 
Minister of Education, Lyonpo Thakur S. Powdyel from  the Royal Government of 
Bhutan. We made strong connection with this wonderful  person who represents 
the only country that has GNH (Gross National Happiness)  as a goal for all 
its people (and the only country in the world committed to a  negative net 
carbon sink). Go to _www.zeroemissionshawaii.org_ 
(http://www.zeroemissionshawaii.org/)  to read more about the  conference and his keynote address, and 
the final concluding Aloha Accord. (many  permaculture connected concepts, 
ideas and participants at the  conference)

Please join us for The Last Paradise Film event on Wed,  Oct 20! (see 
below) It is a fundraiser for the SBCC Center for  Sustainability, and we hope 
you will come out in large numbers, bring family  and friends, help us fill 
the Arlington Theater. Buy tickets for family and  friends, maybe even sponsor 
some scholarship tickets. It is a good way to show  the college the 
community supports the Center, and besides, it's a beautiful  film, that reaches a 
college age audience (important!) as well as the rest of  us.

hope to see you there-

On Wednesday, Oct 20 from 7 pm - 8:45 pm, the Permaculture Guild  of Santa 
Barbara will present a free class, "Patio  Permaculture: Growing Food on 
your Balcony, Porch or Patio" at  the South Coast Watershed Resource Center at 
Arroyo Burro/Hendry's Beach, 2981  Cliff Drive in Santa Barbara. We'll show 
a brief video by permaculture  co-founder Bill Mollison on how to grow food 
in small spaces, plus we'll have  a discussion where we share ideas and 
experience about what grows best in  small spaces here in Santa Barbara.  We'll 
pay special attention to how  to use vertical space, trellises, bamboo 
teepees etc.
