Blue Ocean Institute

Carl Safina's new book, The View from Lazy Point, is featured in the book section of this site. Here is the website of the organization he founded.

The earthsayers website features video clips of powerful voices committed to the healing of the earth community, around topics such as biodiversity, climate change, forests, fresh water, gaia, systemic change, interconnectedness, interdependence and more. The earthsayers themselves, such as earthsayer Joanna Macy, have contributed tirelessly to the healing of our planetary ecosystems which, of course, include ourselves.
