Restorative Breakfast

The Gauteng Natural Step Network invites you to their next Restorative Breakfast. The theme is “Protecting, promoting and enhancing the natural assets of the southern areas of Johannesburg”.

Presented by Gauteng Natural Step Network member, Andrew Barker, who is also the Chairman of KlipSA (Klipriviersberg Sustainability Association).

The State of our Environment… COP 17… Carbon Emissions… Rhino Poaching… Pollution… Destroyed Wetlands… Fauna and Flora Extinctions … Urban development …. Loss of open space …. Destruction of resources …

Environmental issues can be overwhelming and even immobilising. “What can I do?”  Well, go along and learn about the valuable natural assets of the southern areas of Johannesburg as KlipSA works towards protecting, promoting and enhancing them by encouraging appropriate social and economic development to create a special lifestyle. Each one of us CAN make a difference.

‘When a man is wrapped up in himself he makes a pretty small package.’ – John Ruskin, author, art critic, and social reformer. (1819-1900)

However, ‘The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.’ – Ralph Waldo Emerson, writer and philosopher. (1803-1882)

Well, let’s modify that to say, ‘The creation of a thousand forests is in one Rhus lancea (Karee) seed!’
