DESCRIPTION:"Exploring the Changes that will save life on Earth"\nJoanna Macy and Randy 
 Hayes in dialogue on The Great Turning\n \nThis Saturday from 10am to 
 3pm\nLakeshore United Methodist Church\n1330 Lakeshore Avenue Oakland, CA

 2007%20-% 20flyer.pdf\n \n------------ --------- -------\n \nFrom Joanna's 
 website http://www.joannama cy.net/html/ great.html :\n \n"The Great 
 Turning is a name for the essential adventure of our time: the shift from 
 the industrial growth society to a life-sustaining civilization.\n\nThe 
 ecological and social crises we face are inflamed by an economic system 
 dependent on accelerating growth. This self-destructing political economy 
 sets its goals and measures its performance in terms of ever-increasing 
 corporate profits--in other words by how fast materials can be extracted 
 from Earth and turned into consumer products, weapons, and waste.\n\nA 
 revolution is underway because people are realizing that our needs can be 
 met without destroying our world. We have the technical knowledge, the 
 communication tools, and material resources to grow enough food, ensure 
 clean air and water, and meet rational energy needs. Future generations, if 
 there is a livable world for them, will look back at the epochal transition 
 we are making to a life-sustaining society. And they may well call this the 
 time of the Great Turning. It is happening now.\n\nWhether or not it is 
 recognized by corporate-controlle d media, the Great Turning is a reality. 
 Although we cannot know yet if it will take hold in time for humans and 
 other complex life forms to survive, we can know that it is under way. And 
 it is gaining momentum, through the actions of countless individuals and 
 groups around the world. To see this as the larger context of our lives 
 clears our vision and summons our courage."\n\n------------ ---------
