30 Days for the Earth

A series of talks, workshops, and encounters leading up to EARTH DAY 2015

Throop Hall, Throop Unitarian Universalist Church
300 S. Los Robles Ave., Pasadena


Donation of $5 for talks, requested at the door


Our relationship with our earth home is one of the most important and primal relationships. It informs how we conduct ourselves in all other relationships.

Transition Pasadena partners with Throop Unitarian Universalist Church to present a series of talks, workshops, and encounters that highlight our relationship to the earth, our stewardship, and possibilities for healing.

"Carbon-free Prosperity"
Sunday, March 22 — 2:00 pm

Rob Haw, JPL Systems engineer and climate activist will look at the science and behind human caused global warming. He will delineate a range of possible solutions for slowing climate change put forth by various groups, including Citizens Climate Lobby. Rob will also give personal examples of how to decarbonize your impact on the planet.

"Joy of Low-energy Living"
Sunday, March 29 — 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm

Climate scientist Peter Kalmus will share his experiences as he and his family journey toward a lower carbon footprint, focusing on how using less fossil fuels turned out not to be the burden one might expect … in fact, he says it’s made his life happier!

The second part of Peter’s presentation will guide the audience to calculate their carbon footprints, then present concrete ways to decrease their impact on the planet. Please bring a pencil, calculator, and information about your driving, flying, and consuming habits, including a gas and electric bill, to get the maximum from the workshop. If not available, Peter will show ways to ‘guess-timate’ your usage.

"Rethinking Water"
Sunday, April 12 — 2:00 pm

Meredith McKenzie, Cal Poly Pomona lecturer and water activist, will present a talk on California’s water infrastructure, the drought, and long term strategies for sustainability and rehabilitation.

"We Roll Up our Sleeves…"
Sunday, April 19 — 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm

Please join us as we welcome many environmental, sustainability, and social justice groups for a meet and greet mixer of casual conversation and ways to get active.
