As a prelude to Earth Day 2007, the 12th Annual Convergence Festival takes place April 17-22 in Dublin, Ireland. This 6 day event celebrates the sustainable lifestyle. Seems like the rest of the world is just catching up to things. There’s a Talk and Workshop with Martin Boroson, the author of the interfaith creation story, Becoming Me. View this sweet, yet powerful story on You Tube, featuring music by Bobby McFerrin. More info @ martinboroson.info If anyone attends the Convergence, please let us know. I’d so like to be there! Also visit cultivate, the home of the Sustainable Ireland Co-operative.

Sunday, April 22nd will be here before we know it. All over the country, celebrations and activities of all sorts are scheduled, so if you’d like to get in the game, just grab your mitt.
