Ecoliteracy in Action
We are members and friends of Esalen Institute's month long legacy/workscholar group, Ecoliteracy in Action. We explore what it means to embody the science of Sustainability, the art of Permaculture, and the culture and economics of the Transition Movement. With heart, soul and love we will share what we know and discover new possibilities together.

The Gaia Theory posits that the organic and inorganic components of Planet Earth have evolved together as a single living, self-regulating system. It suggests that this living system has automatically controlled global temperature, atmospheric content, ocean salinity, and other factors, that maintains its own habitability. In a phrase, “life maintains conditions suitable for its own survival.”
