Location: The Staircase Café

Facilitated by Mike Balkwill (please RSVP if you want to attend).

This workshop is open to people who have already seen the movie. If you have friends who would like to see the film in order to attend the workshop with you, it will be shown again soon at the Staircase. Please see the Staircase calendar for dates and times, or check online at http://www.staircase.org.

Participants will explore possibilities for actions that are individual, organizational and community based. The workshop will give you a chance to consider and explore the type of actions that fit best for you at this time. Meet others in your community interested in action. Go home with a concrete idea of what to do next.

If you are interested in more information about the impact of peak oil, check out:

There is a suggested donation of $5 but no one will be turned away for lack of funds, so PWYC. Donations will be used to continue raising awareness of the issues of peak oil.

Please RSVP by contacting Mike at mbalkwill@iasc.on.ca if you would like to attend.
