Evolver July: Water

As untold gallons of oil gush into the Gulf, we are sadly reminded of that most vital ingredient to all life on Earth: water. Though it covers almost three quarters of the planet and fills nearly 70% of our own bodies, this precious and seemingly boundless substance is becoming increasingly scarce and imperiled. Reckless damming of rivers, wide-scale pollution, and corporate privatization threaten the free flow of fresh H2O for growing numbers of people around the world.

At the same time, this ephemeral element possesses magical shape-shifting powers, evaporating, condensing, freezing and melting in a flux of physical states. Water summons the lunar, feminine, and intuitive wisdom of consciousness, with our vast oceans granting us a glimmer into the enigma of how this life-giving substance came to our planet in the first place.

We plan on exploring a different format for this month's meeting. We will be screening the award winning documentary Blue Gold (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Gold:_World_Water_Wars) and then holding a discussion after. Feel free to bring your information regarding local water issues to share.

The documentary will start at 8 PM sharp. Hope to see you there.

Cheers.
