Waste otherWisdom Circle

Throughout this cycle, we will be exploring the concept of Away. We have become blind to the metabolic processes that sustain us, such that what we consume and what we excrete simply comes from and goes to the mythical land of Away - outside of our attention or awareness. Not only does this hidden world allow us to be oblivious to all kinds of irresponsible, unsustainable atrocities, but it leaves us feeling isolated, uninformed, and disconnected from our beautiful, entangled relationships with the wider world. In this first call we will deep dive into all that we discard in our exploration of Waste.
There is so much abundance in waste, if only we have eyes enough to see. Waste, by one definition, is the disposal of something that still has value. With some extra time and energy to sort through and process what others discard, we can actually keep the useful and nutritious bits in circulation and to properly lay what we cannot use to rest, or give it to someone that can.
