DESCRIPTION:Join us for a film and discussion about The Economics of Happiness. The 
 film describes a world moving simultaneously in two opposing directions. On 
 the one hand, an unholy alliance of governments and big business continues 
 to promote globalization and the consolidation of corporate power. \n\nAt 
 the same time, people all over the world are resisting those policies, 
 demanding a re-regulation of trade and finance—and, far from the old 
 institutions of power, they're starting to forge a very different future. 
 Communities are coming together to re-build more human scale, ecological 
 economies based on a new paradigm - an economics of localization. \n\nThis 
 film features a chorus of voices from six continents, including Vandana 
 Shiva, Bill McKibben, David Korten, Samdhong Rinpoche, Helena 
 Norberg-Hodge, Michael Shuman, Zac Goldsmith and Keibo Oiwa. They tell us 
 that climate change and peak oil give us little choice: we need to 
 localize, to bring the economy home. The good news is that as we move in 
 this direction we will begin not only to heal the earth but also to restore 
 our own sense of well-being. \n\nThe Economics of Happiness challenges us 
 to restore our faith in humanity, challenges us to believe that it is 
 possible to build a better world.\n
