Where? Edit

Sustainable Community Action aims to link up community and personal action for sustainability worldwide.

Local, personal and global - It's about local sustainability - any size area from local community to the whole planet, but in a way which interconnects the personal and the global.

When? Edit

Now. This stuff matters. Some would say it's urgent. If you can help, do it now. Your planetary community needs you!

We began 6/12/04, but there's massive potential for further development.
