Two creative minds honor the Community 
Environmental Council's 45th Anniversary with a 
conversational journey exploring the past & the 
future of the environmental movement, including a 
discussion of Paul Relis' recently published 
book, Out of the Wasteland - Stories from the Environmental Frontier.

Paul Relis is the founding executive director of 
the Community Environmental Council, who at the 
young age of twenty three, following the 
disastrous oil spill in the Santa Barbara Channel 
in 1969, helped launch an organization whose 
impact is still being felt locally & globally 
today.   Pico Iyer, global traveler & sometime 
Santa Barbara resident, is an internationally 
acclaimed author & journalist with more than ten 
best selling books, whose global citizen 
perspective helps us understand the world we live in.

Join us for a thought provoking evening as Paul & 
Pico, personal good friends, lead us with 
infectious abandon into a lively conversation 
about what the future might hold, as we 
contemplate what our environmental destiny might 
be, in our Santa Barbara home town and on the planet.

A book signing reception will follow the talk.

Tickets $30, $20 & $10, (all ticket sales donated 
to the Community Environmental Council)

A Community Event Sponsored by
Santa Barbara Permaculture Network & the Community Environmental Council

Paul Relis Bio:

Paul became the founding executive director of 
the Community Environmental Council (CEC) after 
the disastrous oil spill in the Santa Barbara 
Channel in 1969. Paul then became an executive 
with the state EPA, and lectured for nearly two 
decades on Environmental Studies at his alma mater, UCSB.

Paul feels his current work with CR&R Inc, a 
company developing a 30 million dollar Anaerobic 
Digester at a facility in Perris, CA, (due to 
open in three months) with a carbon free, ultra 
low emissions biofuels created from organic 
waste, is the exciting culmination of all his 
work---fulfilling a dream of making our community 
and state less reliant on oil for energy.
