eco … village

bio … region

Reinhabit a territory. Dwell in the land. Re-establish community.

The directionality is clear, but from where we are now (mass institutional-technological society) the return trip will be a journey of a thousand steps.

A convenient marker from which to date the Turning Point could be Earth Day 1970.

I’d be surprised if we are able to take more than two or three steps in any given generation.
