Sustainability goes far beyond the "ecologically correct". Authentic sustainability requires learning and accepting our own contradictions within the social, economic, and environmental tripod.

What can we learn from indigenous cultures and how can we adapt it to our contemporary lives? How can we use the philosophy of deep ecology as a tool for change? What is our role as active citizens of the earth?

Join us this Friday, June 14, as we invite Maria Souza, program manager of Green Initiatives, to share her journey as an environmentalist and her discoveries on how indigenous cultures create a life-sustaining relationship with the earth.

Fresh Start Rotary Club of Shanghai is a member club of a global network of 1.2 million who envision a world where people unite to create lasting change. We support social enterprise and help empower entrepreneurs with a social purpose.

We warmly welcome all to attend, listen, and ask questions.
