Looking Back & Planning Ahead: The Road to a Clean Energy Future
Ketchum Fire StationPlease join us in a conversation about our recent climate history, the need for our energy systems to adapt, and the current tools being used to address the climate crisis. We’ll provide some context on how the last 30 years of climate policy have shaped the reality we’re in today, and the next steps moving forward. It’s a critical decade to address our climate, environmental, and energy issues – but the opportunities to mitigate the worst effects of climate change are within reach. While individual actions alone can’t solve climate change, engaged climate advocates working together are essential to addressing this global problem! Please join us to discuss our energy present and future, while leaving plenty of time for questions (which you can also submit ahead of time). No RSVP or scientific background is required – just bring your curiosity and appetite for knowledge!

Mystical Poetry Evening
Bridgitte's PlaceCalling all lovers of mystical poetry in the Wood River Valley. Mystical poets of many of the world’s contemplative traditions are sources of tremendous wisdom and timeless offerings for the exploration of human potential. And many modern poets approach this same mystical place, often through their profound sharing of the way nature touches the soul of being human. Afterall, we are part of nature. We will come together to listen to several mystical poet's work selected by Cit Ananda to inspire self-reflection, journaling, and conversation. The intention is to cultivate a place for deep introspection, sacred conversation and heart-oriented community around myriad wisdom teachings. This is the first event in what we hope will become an on-going series of meet ups. There is no shortage of poets in the mystical tradition to inspire us, so come with your journal, (and maybe some pillows and blankets for comfort) your open heart and a desire to share the wisdom that runs through you. About Your Host Cit Ananda’s poetry is inspired by direct experience, captured in moments between perception when the mind falls quiet and deep silence shares an offering that touches the mystery of life.

“Tenacious Beasts: Wildlife Recoveries That Change How We Think About Animals”
The Community LibraryChristopher Preston joins us to discuss his book "Tenacious Beasts" -- an inspiring look at wildlife species that are defying the odds and teaching important lessons about how to share a planet. The news about wildlife is dire—more than 900 species have been wiped off the planet since industrialization. Against this bleak backdrop, however, there are also glimmers of hope and crucial lessons to be learned from animals that have defied global trends toward extinction: bears in Italy, bison in North America, whales in the Atlantic. These populations are back from the brink, some of them in numbers unimaginable in a century. How has this happened? What shifts in thinking did it demand? Drawing on compelling personal stories from the researchers, Indigenous people, and activists who know the creatures best, Preston weaves together a gripping narrative of how some species are taking back vital, ecological roles. Each section of the book—farms, prairies, rivers, forests, oceans—offers a philosophical shift in how humans ought to think about animals, passionately advocating for the changes in attitude necessary for wildlife recovery. "Tenacious Beasts" is quintessential nature writing for the Anthropocene, touching on different facets of ecological restoration from Indigenous knowledge to rewilding practices. More ...
