Join us Monday May 19 for one of Portland's favorite topics - humanure - from a fresh perspective!  Laura Dvorak will share her presentation entitled R.E.S.O.U.R.C.E., (Reclaiming Everyone's Soil: Opportunity to Understand Relational Cycles of Ecology). It represents an ethnographic inquiry of composting toilets in Portland (as related to watershed restoration/education and cultural perceptions), and a brief overview of appropriate technologies and innovations in other countries. It is an exploration of the current human condition- the environmental crisis and spiritual catharsis- framed around the misunderstood and wasted resource of human excreta.

Guild meetings are held at Pacific Crest Community School at NE 29th & Davis (2 blocks N of Burnside).  The optional potluck starts at 6:00.  Please bring your own plate/cup/utensils and a yummy dish to share.  The meeting topic starts at 7:00.
