Have you heard about the amazing reforestation techniques that are preventing the spread of the Sahara Desert? Or that coral reefs are being regenerated? There are so many people and inspiring projects that are actively restoring our planet and fighting climate change. In this forum, we invite participants to share their stories of hope - either from your direct experience (your vacation photos, for example, or work you have done to save a creek) or an amazing restorative activity you have read about. Of course, you are welcome to just learn from others!
The group will be limited to 10-12 participants, small enough to fit around a table and present/converse comfortably. Each participant has presentation will last approximately 5 minutes to share, with plenty of time for questions and discussion. Presenters are invited to share slides, photos or other visuals. You do not need to be an expert to share.
The goal is to share exciting and hopeful stories about restoring nature and ourselves.
Here's a page of sources for inspiring stories to get you started looking for positive nature stories locally and across the world. See you soon!
