Building living buildings and living communities is rooted in a deep understanding of what it means to be inclusive. Adopting an ethic of place is a good point of beginning: An ethic of place respects equally the people of a region and the land, animals, vegetation, water, and air.\u00a0It recognizes that people revere their physical surroundings and they need and deserve a stable, productive economy that is accessible to those with modest incomes.\u00a0\u00a0An ethic of place ought to be a shared community value and ought to manifest itself in a determination to treat the environment and its people as equals,\u00a0to recognize both as sacred,and to insure that all members of the community not just\u00a0search for but insist upon solutions that fulfill the ethic.<\/p>\r\n

Join us for the final Webinar in a 5-part series: Living Communities and Inclusion in Atlantic Canada<\/strong>, Wednesday, August 11, from 7:00 to 9:00pm Atlantic time.\u00a0Richard Roach, Scott Leckie, Robin Bronen and Cecilia Jimenez-Damary <\/strong>will join Centre for Local Prosperity Host Gr\u00e9gory H\u00e9ming<\/strong> for a one hour discussion followed by a 1 hour Q&A session with the public.<\/p>\r\n

E.O. Wilson once remarked \u201cthe real problem of humanity is the following: we have paleolithic emotions; medieval institutions; and god-like technology.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If Wilson\u2019s summary is close to correct (and there is a vast body of evidence to suggest he is); as climate breakdown continues to intensify (as science is able to demonstrate); as the number of climate refugees seeking safe haven increases (as an array of world bodies, including the United Nations, have now shown); what emotional, institutional and technological makeover is Atlantic Canada prepared to undergo if we make the conscious decision to be that safe haven for climate displaced persons? If any of us are going to find shelter from what Secretary General of the United Nations General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres calls the \u2018winds of madness\u2019, then some place, some collective citizenry, must show the world the way. This dialogue hopes to plant seeds that may one day ripen into a common home for humanity, a sustainable place for all of life. This begins, as it must, with a collective emotional, institutional and technological expression of neighbourliness among Atlantic Canadians.<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
