Sustainability Now is engaged in the exploration and proliferation of cutting edge sustainable technologies that solve planetary problems related to food, energy, housing, water, waste, health and consciousness.
Consciousness is key. The mission is to embolden people to discover, connect to and pursue the song of their souls; the BIG dream; their sense of mission and purpose–and assist them with the support necessary to bring their dreams to fruition. The underlying theme is that we CAN change the world and we must take ownership of and be accountable to our role as co-creators. Together we can save the world and “dream” a new world into being.
Project EcoPark, the second face of Sustainability Now, is a showcase for sustainable technologies and a living example of a BIG dream made manifest. Think of Disney meets sustainability. The park is a vacation/education/retreat/conference destination that exemplifies a variety of sustainable building modalities, energy generation and food cultivation methods, as well as technologies for water collection and purification and waste recycling/disposal. Project EcoPark is a global resource center, incubator and learning center. As such, it is active and influential in shaping policy worldwide.
