Our guest-host today is Jan Spencer, bringing with him insights and guidance about sustainability and what he calls A Primer for Paradigm Shift. Jan has been at this for some decades, observing others moving toward sustainability, learning various systems, ideas, and techniques to support the transition, and experimenting with it on his own suburban property in Eugene, Oregon. In this episode, Jan takes a look at 5 organizations that teach values, principles & actions that are a perfect fit for paradigm shift. Then he'll share a story about Benicia, a city in the NW corner of the San Francisco Bay area, which is in the process of losing its most single important employer and source of taxes, a sprawling oil refinery. The Primer describes a choice Bernicia could take, moving the people and the city toward sustainability and financial well-being. In addition to the Primer website, you can track down many of Jan's insights via his YouTube videos and on his website, and those in Eugene Oregon may be able to hear his broadcasts via KEPW.
