Round Table 1

Empowering Personal Actions for Our Mother Earth

We may sometimes feel that we are not entirely in control of our actions, as if something is eluding us to change our behavior. In this round table discussion, Karen will inspire and motivate individuals to make sustainable choices in their daily lives, and explore how these actions can collectively contribute to a more sustainable future. Are we inherently unable to live up to our beliefs, or can we do things differently?
