[Southern California Permaculture] TONIGHT!/Bioneers Film Showcase Event/SUN Apr 9 - 5-7pm SBCC West Campus

Sun Apr 9 06:57:11 PDT 2017

Could there be a more important topic than the health of our oceans?  They
provide everything, generating oxygen, moderating temperatures, and in our
communities, provide livelihoods and food security from our own backyard,
the sea.  Now it is being documented that healthy kelp forests can draw down
carbon from the atmosphere rapidly, helping us solve that seemingly
unsolvable problem.  Please join us for a fascinating evening!  

Reminder: event is on the Santa Barbara City College WEST campus. A bit of
construction happening, look for the building complex under the clock tower.
Parking is free on West Campus on Sundays.  Special local guests Antoinette
& Daniel Marquez of AMA SeaBeauty & Pharmersea  will be with us.

 Featuring Filmed Presenters from the 2016 National Bioneers Conference,
with a focus on Ocean & Climate:

Have you ever been to a Bioneers Conference?  They are epic!  For 27 years
the place to be to learn about cutting edge ideas shared by Bioneers, the
innovators & visionaries of our time, who look deep into the heart of nature
for solutions to a better future.  Held annually in San Raphael, CA, we are
happy to bring a taste of the Bioneers experience home to our own
communities.

As California has one of the longest coastlines in the world, the backyard
for all our Central Coast communities, we focus on Ocean & Climate, and the
exciting idea of a Blue Green economy, that while providing food close to
home & creating sustainable livelihoods, helps restore the health of our
oceans & mitigates climate change

 Short Films:

Feature Film:  The Least Deadly Catch: Ocean Farming in the Climate Change
Era, with Bren Smith

With introductions by John Roulac of Nutiva & Daniel Marquez of Pharmersea

and updates from Community Environmental Council (CEC) about the SB County
Food Action Plan

Bren Smith, founder of GreenWave & winner of the 2015 Buckminster Fuller
Challenge award, became a commercial fisherman at age 14, but witnessed the
destruction of the ocean firsthand. In a quest for a better way, he
pioneered a revolutionary new model of harvesting bounty from the seas. He
describes his innovative, practical design and future vision for
"restorative 3-D ocean farming".  It restores ecosystems, mitigates climate
change, creates jobs in a blue-green economy, and ensures healthy, secure
local food for communities.

Followed by a conversation with Daniel & Antoinette Marquez about their
local model of the Blue Green Economy, Pharmersea, a 25 acre sea farm off
the Ellwood Pier, in Goleta, CA, that provides sustainably harvested
ingredients for AMA SeaBeauty skin products

Enjoy special exhibitors prior to the event!
