PASS Eco-Summit coming in Joshua Tree

MBCA is helping to sponsor the PASS Eco-Summit in Joshua Tree this October, focusing on "Practical Advances in Southwestern Sustainability" ("PASS"). Per the Hi-Desert Star, this conference offers "tools for ways of doing business and living that help rather than harm the surroundings."
Basin Wide Foundation organizers promise a day of collaborative solutions and examples of methods to address current situations in the desert. For people who want practical examples of what they can do in their daily lives, the conference will include a 3 1/2-hour Green Living Workshop available separately for people who do not attend the full conference.

A concert, Eco-Fair, and Eco-Home Tour will be part of the events October 10-12 at the Joshua Tree Retreat Center. Early registration with special rates ends September 20. Find out more at the Eco-Summit Website.
