CURRENT MISSION

Community Owned Renewable Energy and permaculture or edible gardens everywhere

ABOUT ME

Into permaculture and sustainability, conversation, especially about where we're heading! I work in sustainability, climate change and community. I'm part of the Permablitz network, helping folk get permaculture gardens designed and built by others in the community. I'm also involved in an Environmental Education Centre, helping kids engage with the natural environment. I'm always into learning - loving the free online university courses that are coming out now!

PHILOSOPHY

We're on this planet for many things, but one is to leave in a better place!

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Played African Drums and danced in front of 11 000 people, painted red, wearing only a loin cloth and part of Beltane Fire Festival in Edinburgh.

Insegna, impara, condividi
