Friday Evening, March 14, & Saturday March 15, 2008

Featuring: Gard Jameson, John Hadder, Judy Treichel

When the ancients referred to the basic elements of life, “the stuff of the universe”,
they spoke in terms of Earth, Air, Fire & Water. The sun was often worshipped. The clean air blew in their faces and they breathed deeply. Pure water was precious and all land was sacred. Now at the beginning of the 21 century, we cannot help but ask what has happened? The weather has become more violent. The rains have diminished greatly. Our lakes and rivers are disappearing. In many places the water and air are unsafe to drink or breathe and the land itself appears tortured and is dying. What has happened?

The Nevada desert is a land of great beauty and harshness, of gentle delicacies and very
sharp and pointed edges. Living here, we know the fire of the summer sun, the importance
of life giving water, the winds and the beauty of the land and its mountains. Sadly even with its unique capacity for survival our Nevada desert is now threatened. What can we do?

Please join us beginning Friday, March 14 and Saturday, March 15 for a time of
thoughtful conversation and community building. While focusing on environmental
issues we will do the important work of inner dialogue also so that we might walk
more gently on our journey and learn to act with thoughtful recognition of our need
to renew and sustain our environment.

Our time together will be spent in a series of workshops and plenary (large group) sessions. We will have lunch as a community enjoying good food and conversation. In the afternoon we will join together in a special and reflective “Cosmic Walk”. We will also look at some of the tougher issues which we cannot responsibly avoid if we are serious about undertaking the work of environmental justice.

Since 1982, Nevada Desert Experience has worked for environmental justice focusing on the great injustice of nuclear weapons and the degradation of all of humanity and the earth’s ecological systems, as a direct result of this deadly and poisonous nuclear technology.

The suggested donation for adults is a voluntary sliding scale between $20.00 and $50.00
(Students and Seniors $15.00, no one turned away for lack of funds.)
