Thanks everyone for being a part of the amazing event on Sunday. We’ll upload a video early next year along with a copy of our collective artwork from the day.

Event Update – November 27
Thunderstorms are predicted for tomorrow, so we are moving the event. We are thrilled to have the use of the lovely Stucco Co-operative Hall at 197 Wilson St Newtown, not far from Victoria Park. Macdonaldtown is the closest station or it’s a ten minute walk from either Newtown or Redfern Stations. See map below. Another update is that legendary deep ecologist John Seed will be joining us. Meditation starts at 1pm.
On the eve of the Mexico Climate talks, come along to remember the earth, connect with others and celebrate the sacred in the city. There’ll be a meditation from 1pm – 1.30pm, then after that listen to some inspiring speakers, some great tunes and picnic in the park. Bring info about your cause or passion to share and byo food and drink. Guests include Graham King (Aboriginal Tent Embassy) and DJ Ted (5 Rhythms).

A few of us forest activists worked together to create this ad for the federal election. It showed on WIN TV in Canberra and the South East of NSW, where communities are directly affected by logging for woodchips and the proposal to burn forests for power. It proposes the question – do we think about everyone’s homes when we talk about sources of energy?
