The future is abundant, asserts permaculture
designer Larry Santoyo.
His vision of living in the present suggests an antidote to fear about
uncertain times and the future. Humans can rediscover that they
are a part of the ecosystem, and apply permaculture design principles to
the many problems we face. Larry teaches sustainable permaculture
design as a discovery of the world around us.
Santoyo credits his early training as a police officer for giving him
some of his most profound human insights. Trained to respond to
stressful situations with calm, clear thinking, and keen observation
skills, while staying centered in the present, he was able to help
those in distress while keeping them and himself out danger.
In our eco-anxiety ridden times many are also in distress with stressors
that threaten to endanger and paralyze us. But Santoyo suggests
that we needn't let these fears shape us, but instead, by choosing what
we love about the present, and developing useful skills to benefit
ourselves and others, we have a solid foundation upon which to build the
future.
Larry Santoyo is the Director of EarthFlow Design Works
(http://www.earthflow.com), a
community planning and design firm that integrates economic development
strategies with ecological systems management. Born in East LA,
Santoyo has been teaching Permaculture since the1980's both nationally
and internationally, most recently returning to Los Angeles, where he
teaches Urban Permaculture to a large and receptive audience.
“Permaculture for Humanity” is his forthcoming
book.

pm - 9:30pm, at the Santa Barbara Downtown Public Library, Faulkner
