Sustainable Cultures
This presentation will explore some core philosophies and ideologies of sustainable cultures and why our modern culture is so badly missing the mark.
We will specifically look into the foundational differences in the conception of the "Self". By better understanding the role and model of an individual inside of a Regenerative Society, we can begin shifting ourselves towards more meaningful progress in the face of all these modern issues.
