> Paul Cienfuegos  www.paulcienfuegos.com  will be returning  October  
> 19th & 20th for a weekend workshop.  The work that he and the  
> Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund [ www.celdf.org ] does is  
> significant if we want to preserve our environment.
>
>   Basically,  what the Community Rights Ordinance does is  assist  
> people, grass root activists, elected representatives, and  
> government officials to craft and adopt new laws that change the  
> status of natural communities and ecosystems from being regarded as  
> property under the law to being recognized as rights-bearing entities.

>
> The CELDF works with communities across the country facing a range  
> of threats - from the privatization of their water by corporations,  
> to factory farms, to the land application of sewage sludge, coal and  
> uranium mining, corporate land "development", toxic trespass and gas  
> drilling/fracking.
>
> Communities that CELDF work with are recognizing that these  
> seemingly "single" issue threats share something in common - that  
> the community doesn't have the legal authority to say "No" to it.  
> The existing "Regulatory System" of law ensures that people can not  
> govern their communities and act as stewards of the environment,  
> while guaranteeing the legal preference for corporate resource  
> extraction and waste dumping in our communities.  Community Rights  
> Ordinance gives us the legal authority to say, "No".

> Sliding Scale Fees:

> The sliding scale for this event is $60 to $260 for two full days of

>
> We'd like you to consider paying a bit more than you are used to  
> paying if you are in an upper-income bracket, and a bit less than  
> you are used to paying if you are in a lower income bracket. In this  
> society, we tend to forget that lower income people have much less  
> disposable income for extras of any kind than do higher income  
> people. So what ends up happening is that lower income people  
> actually end up subsidizing the participation of higher income  
> people at events where everyone pays the same price to attend..
>
>
> If you have lots of dependents, please consider paying a bit less  
> than the amounts listed below. If you have few or no dependents,  
> please consider paying a bit more than the amounts listed below.
>
>
> If you are at all uncomfortable with our suggested fee scale, please  
> pay whatever amount you feel is right for you to pay. YOU are the  
> best judge of what you can afford to pay.
>
>
> If you make less than $15,000 per year, please consider paying $60  
> or more.
>
> If you make $15,000 to $25,000 per year, please consider paying $90  
> or more.
>
> If you make $25,000 to $40,000 per year, please consider paying $120  
> or more.
>
> If you make $40,000 to $70,000 per year, please consider paying $160
