Personal Side Note on Process

08/26/201904/12/2022

I have been having great difficulty with my blog this, now last week. Partly because it is the end of summer in Vermont and too many wonderful events are happening, but more because I am listening to Bill McGibben’s latest book, Falter. I feel like a fraud. I have been realizing that I have reached […]

Lush Pasture and Monarch Butterflies

08/08/201904/12/2022

I have been talking about climate change and what we can do beyond ‘changing the light bulbs’ and the like. Below is an example of a decision that I have been working on in the past couple of weeks that drew on outside information, dowsing, and talking to the land. It is a good example […]

Climate Change and Business

07/31/201904/12/2022

One of the more pessimistic writers on climate change is David Wallace-Wells who talks about the uninhabitable earth. He writes about heat, food, plagues, air quality, war, economic collapse, and poisoned oceans as all being inevitable in our lifetime. Tough stuff to read. Bill Mckibben’s recent summary is more apt for many: the habitable area […]

Strategic Planning and Climate Change WordArt

Strategic Planning in the time of Climate Change

07/16/201904/12/2022

Having made sure that your goals and energy are congruent and that you can recognize when they aren’t, we then create a strategic plan. My approach to strategic business planning differs from the traditional in that it is always holistic and in within the context of climate change. In a small business, strategic planning is […]

Summer Solstice and 11 Years

06/21/201904/12/2022

Happy Summer Solstice – Today June 21st! Summer has begun and here in Vermont, I can finally take off my long underwear . The spring weather here has been unusually cool and wet, enough to be giving the farmers a very hard time. What does an earth holiday and weather have to do with professional […]

Think Globally, Act Locally

05/30/201904/12/2022

I believe that humans and the Earth have had a mutually interactive relationship with humans feeding the land on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels while we worked with the land and waters to create sustenance and beauty. The cultures that followed this path were successful in being sustainable through “working with” rather than “having dominion […]

Balance

05/27/201904/12/2022

How do we adapt our personal lives to include the realities of Climate Change? I would ask the question a bit differently, how do we re-balance our lives based on a right relationship with the Earth? For most of us, our lives are out-of-balance, not well grounded, or not in right relationship with the Earth […]

the effect of pattern on the mind and body

Pattern and Climate Change

04/29/201904/12/2022

I have been rereading Emilie Conrad’s book, Life on Land: The History of Continuum. I was very fortunate to be able to work with her in the 1980’s. She talks about the effect of pattern on the mind and body as opposed to complexity and matrix (“something within or from which something else originates, develops, […]
