State of the World Forum presents:
Women’s 2020 Leadership Caucus: Facing the Climate Crisis

Recently State of the World Forum (SWF) has partnered with Bioneers and Pachamama Alliance to create a bold ten-year campaign to reduce carbon emissions by 80% by 2020. This is a time for civil society to lead the way since our governments are not acting quickly enough. The Women’s 2020 Leadership Caucus is offering a feminine force for change that empowers the full potential of women (and men, too, who wish to explore this approach) to affect meaningful progress towards climate warming reduction goals and a more sustainable, resilient, and just global future. For more information about the January 22 Gathering or the February Conference in Washington D.C., please contact June Timberlake: jtimberlake@worldforum.org OR phone: 510.364.3226

Are You Brave Enough to Say No to a High-Stress Holiday?

xmasNOT.jpgBy Bill McKibben, Grist.org

If you poll Americans this time of year, far more of them regard the approaching holidays with dread than anticipation. It has long since become too busy, too expensive, too centered around acquiring that which we do not need.
