Come find out at this inspiring, interactive introductory look at a powerful new educational approach to sustainability called the Natural Step Framework (NSF), which was created in Sweden in 1989 and brought to the US in the mid 90s by Ecology of Commerce author Paul Hawken and MIT learning organization leader Peter Senge, author of The Fifth Discipline.

It is now being used by numerous municipalities, government agencies, nonprofits, schools, religious institutions, architectural firms, hospitals, cooperatives and businesses such as Interface, Starbucks, Nike, Home Depot, Electrolux, IKEA and McDonalds to save money, improve performance and become more environmentally and socially responsible.

This session will present an introduction to sustainability and the NSF, how it can benefit you at home, work and in the community, and several simple, practical steps you can take to save money, time and the environment while protecting the health and well-being of you, your children and future generations.

Participants will gain a positive, new perspective and see how we can create a sustainable future.
