Keep Sedona Beautiful Sustainability Series

Putting Together the 
Pieces of Community Sustainably
 
A five Week Course 
April 9 thru May 7.  3:00 - 5:00 PM 
at Keep Sedona Beautiful
360 Brewer Rd., Sedona 
 
with Debra Emmanuelle
 

Sustainability has become a new buzz word that is getting more attention than ever before.  
 
Debra Emmanuelle Course Instructor

Course Intsructor
Unfortunately, there are as many definitions as there are people using the term, resulting in a "green-washing" effect that is actually detracting from the deeper relevance of the meaning. 
 
If true sustainability is to become a reality, there must be a synthesis of agreement and a common plan at the community level that is based on a shared vision and shared values. 
 
In this course, we will dialogue about current challenges whose solutions lie in the implementation of foundational Sustainability Principles and Practices as well as number of tools that support effective implementation and follow through.  
 
This class is a group exploration of shared vision and value-sets that, when acted upon, turn the possibility of local sustainability into a local reality - starting with you! 
 
Pre-register online at www.greenpapillonalliance.com or call Debra at (928) 282-8738 - $15.00 - $20 at the door.
