On the last Thursday of each month The Sustainability Center hosts the Book Shelf Series featuring a local sustainability advocate. Doors will be open at 6:30 pm with the gathering starting at 7 PM.
Come join us in a personal and rich conversation with Liz Walker on June 27th - a conversation that is sure to be insightful and engaging. Liz practices everyday living life sustainably. For more than two decades she has rolled up her sleeves and purposefully and persistently collaborated with others to create a more sustainable future that is possible. She is a local author of two books about sustainability, cofounder of EcoVillage at Ithaca, and community organizer. In her first book, EcoVillage at Ithaca, Liz captured and shared with us the power, beauty and at times messiness when people come together to systematically create a sustainable community. In her second book, Choosing a Sustainable Future, Liz explores and serves as guide to the richness of ideas and inspiration to be found in Ithaca and Tompkins County that are driving local sustainability solutions. Find out about two of her current projects: the EPA Climate Showcase Community work she is doing and the building of the third ecovillage neighborhood. "Ithaca is one of those places showing the way towards a workable future, and Liz Walker is a key guide on that tour."
