Dreaming New Mexico
Reconciling Human and Natural Systems
SATURDAY AFTERNOON SESSION: October 17, 2009
2:45pm – 4:15pm
Dreaming the future can create the future. Envisioning a sustainable world is the necessary first step toward realizing it. What would a regional “food-shed” economy that’s based on local jobs, healthy food, social equity, eliminating hunger and restoring the environment look like? Dreaming New Mexico (DNM), a Bioneers project, has created a future Localized Food Shed map to facilitate transformation at the state level.
With: Peter Warshall, world-renowned biodiversity expert and DNM project co-director; Arturo Sandoval, a deeply respected Hispano elder on justice and environmental issues, founder of the Center of Southwest Culture; and Arty Mangan, Bioneers Food and Farming director. Moderated by Kenny Ausubel, Bioneers founder and DNM co-director.
Location: A11
Topic Areas: Food and Farming; Ecological Design
Dreaming New Mexico (DNM), a Bioneers project, was selected for second place by the prestigious 2009 Buckminster Fuller Challenge Award.
