Global Earth Repair – How Does it Apply to Jefferson County?
Perhaps you attended the Global Earth Repair Conference, or maybe you wanted to but couldn’t make it work. (Note that you can view videos from the conference here, or check out their facebook page here) Or maybe you are just curious about how Global Earth Repair could apply to Jefferson County. Local 20/20 wants to know if you would be interested in convening with other locals to discuss what aspects of the conference (of which there were many) might apply to Jefferson County, and what might be next steps for moving that forward. If you would be interested in that, please email Suzanne at suzanne@l2020.org, and please indicate what timing is best for you (weekends, weekdays, during the day, in the evening, etc.) There is also an online opportunity to continue the discussions from GERC. The Weaver Network has volunteered to facilitate follow-up networking from the conference. Join free and find the Group called Global Earth Repair.
