Hello Everyone,
Our community college has just launched a new sustainability initiative, and I have been asked to develop a packet of materials that will be given to faculty and staff members who have volunteered to be a part of the initiative and will be attending a retreat next week. I am looking for articles having to do with both sustainability in general, and also those focusing on campus sustainability. Can you give me suggestions of specific articles that would be good to include?
Thanks,
Julie Plummer

Hi Julie,
Have a look at our web site. There are numerous items about sustainability in the home, in the garden, in the school, in the office, etc. The address is: http://www.sustainability.vic.gov.au/www/html/1723-get-involved.asp
Good luck with your program.
Cheers
John

Have you heard about the Northwest Earth Institute? They have a series of workbooks that I find extremely good for discussions and information.They can only be bought if you are doing a discussion but that might be a good thing also if you are trying to get people to think about sustainability. One is a discussion course on Choices for Sustainable Living and includes articles by Jared Diamond, Joanna Macy, Donella Meadows, Mattis Wackernagel/William Rees, David Korten, and Paul Hawkin to name a few. Check out their website www.nwei.org.
