Here's an event coming up on Sunday: Wisdom of the Elders; Gaia – Our Living Earth
Sunday, Dec. 16, 2PM
Potomac Overlook Regional Park, Arlington, VA
Take a break from the hectic holiday season and join us at this annual winter solstice event exploring the wisdom of people, communities and the Earth itself. This year, we explore the Gaia Theory – the scientific idea of Earth as a living system. The program will include a multimedia celebration of life on Earth as well as perspectives from people, past and present, on the metaphor of our living planet.
This program is open to adults and children (10 years old+). Refreshments will be served. Call 703/528-5406 to RSVP and for directions.
Yo Miles,
ReplyDeleteInteresting, i'll have to keep this in mind, although i feel like i'm swimming up to my neck with busyness at the moment...
A question though, a recycling question, see what you may be able to tell me. So on the Arlington site it says drop-off recycling centers accept the following in the way of "mixed paper," among other things:
"paperboard (such as cereal boxes, paper towel rolls, shoe boxes, beverage cartons, gift boxes, and any other single-layered paperboard not coated with wax)"
SO, the question i'm wondering if you may know is, any idea how you can tell if something's covered with wax? It seems like some Trader Joe's OJ i have is, but am not sure, thought i'd see if you'd come across this. Cereal boxes even seem like they could be, but it seems like the OJ carton's a bit waxier...
Hope all's well.
