Greetings and Well Wishes to all of you who contributed to the Convening the Conveners event May 6, 2009 in Ashland, Oregon,
We are pleased to share with you the written report from the event last month. We thank you for your patience in receiving the documentation and hope that you find it to be a valuable artifact of the endeavor. Please feel encouraged to share the information with anyone that you would like, as we hope to illuminate the culture of working together towards our shared common goal of local resiliency.
I know that community and sustainability are priorities to you and your green business so I have found a way for you to gain exposure
while supporting the things you want to see in the world.
On June 24th, I will begin my Models of Sustainable Living Tour, a study of communities in Europe that demonstrate social harmony, cooperation and longevity, along with some specific tried and true, fuel free technologies that I've not yet seen here in the USA. From this tour, I will develop presentations and trainings to share this wisdom with people across the USA, to support our transitions to more sustainable choices, with greater community connections and cooperation.

Goodbye 2-by-6 studs with fiberglass insulation, vapor barrier and a lot of
screws, nails, pounding and seeping of air between the many joints.
Say hello to SIPs.
Today's green, energy-efficient and sustainably-built house can be framed entirely with SIPs Structural Insulated Panels which are a foot-thick sandwich of polystyrene foam between layers of oriented strand board, a product that costs a little more than lumber but which cuts building time and pays for itself in saved energy bills.
GREENSBORO - Father Thomas Berry, a Greensboro native and world-renowned cultural historian, died Monday at the Well-Spring retirement community. He was 94. (Photo: http://handsofalchemy.blogspot.com)
Berry, a Passionist Catholic priest, was considered a leading ecological thinker and held eight honorary degrees and numerous awards and honors. His ideas have influenced people across the world - from corporate globalization critic David Korten to Nobel laureate Wangari Maathai of Kenya .
Berry's health had declined over the years and his family expected his death, said his sister, Dr. Margaret Berry.
"He had a quiet death and the family was with him when he died," Berry said. "We have people from all over the world who are e-mailing and planning to attend one of the four services."
Thomas Berry articulated a vision of an approaching "Ecozoic Era" in which human societies would live in a sustainable and mutually beneficial manner with the natural world. The Center for Ecozoic Studies in Chapel Hill plans to publish a tribute to Berry this year.
Gov. Ted Kulongoski will attend Oregon Business magazine's celebration of its first annual 100 Best Green Companies to Work For in Oregon. The
event will be June 1 at the Gerding Theater in Portland. "We are honored to have the governor help us recognize the importance
of green ethics in the workplace," says Oregon Business Editor Robin
Doussard. "And grateful for his enduring commitment to making Oregon
one of the greenest states in the country."

As we observe the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin and the 150th anniversary of his landmark book, On the Origin of Species, evolution has become firmly established as the central organizing principle of the biological sciences. Natural explanations for the growth of complexity through time ground all the other sciences, as well, from cosmology and chemistry to neuroscience and psychology. That everything within this universe has emerged through natural processes operating over vast spans of time is now well beyond dispute among scientists and the educated public. Yet even today, families and public school systems remain divided and the evolutionary worldview is still shunned by millions, perhaps billions, of religious believers around the world. Why?
