The Journey

I have been an advocate of sustainability since the 70’s with the core area of interest in energy efficient building and systems.  
Starting in March 2010 I am walking from Melbourne to Brisbane via the Bi-centennial National Trail. The objectives of this walk are to:

• Facilitate workshops in every city and town along the journey to gather and share information for the creation of sustainable communities. These workshops will:
• Create a network of local resources that can be shared across the whole society.
• Create dynamic links between major population centers and rural country areas.
• Create trust that develops positive constructive dialogue which is solution focused.
• Develop strategies that work with local industries to develop sustainable businesses and industries.
• To be inclusive of all people who want to be involved in the process.

• Film a documentary and gather stories about people I meet along the way to tell their story.

My focus is to facilitate changes that stick because people develop trust and are able to create their own sustainable future that is aligned with the values of the whole community.
This is not about me promoting my own dogma but to find ways that bring all interests to the table to create the best solutions to the problems that are facing all of us and move
