‘Beaming Bioneers’ Behemoth 2006
Don’t ya just love alliteration?
Ok, all silliness aside – in case you haven’t heard, this weekend all across the US the Bioneers are holding their annual conference.
“Who the heck are the Bioneers?” some might ask.
Here is a blurb from their website:
The Collective Heritage Institute, aka Bioneers, was founded in 1990, when Kenny Ausubel and Nina Simons assembled Bioneers for the first annual Bioneers conference, a gathering of scientific and social innovators who have demonstrated visionary and practical models for restoring the Earth and communities.
Bioneers was conceived to conduct programs in the conservation of biological and cultural diversity, traditional farming practices, and environmental restoration.Our vision of environment encompasses the natural landscape, cultivated landscape, biodiversity, cultural diversity, watersheds, community economics, and spirituality. Bioneers seeks to unite nature, culture and spirit in an Earth-honoring vision, and create economic models founded in social justice.
