Solutions for Water platform – World Water Forum 6th – Marseille 2012

Dave Ewoldt is a practitioner and researcher in the field of ecopsychology–helping people remember how to think and act the way that nature works, and the health and wisdom that can be gained by doing so. In other words, a paradigm shift coach. He is a co-founder of Coalitions of Mutual Endeavor, a non-profit which uses natural systems principles to facilitate coalitions that can build the critical mass to create critical change, and is a founding member of Transition Pima, the first sanctioned Transition Initiative in the American Southwest desert. A published systems theorist, Dave is a member of a national speakers bureau on global warming, and speaks regularly at local, national and international conferences on sustainability, Peak Oil, global warming, corporatism, the theft of the commons, and how relocalization–powering down, reconnecting, steady-state economies, and an Earth jurisprudence–provide a practical, affordable response as a process to create a sustainable future. His book-in-progress is “Connecting the Dots: Reversing Our Handbasket to Hell.”
