Current Projects at Planet Drum
Reports and Dispatches from the Field
Eco Ecuador is an ongoing project to collaborate with an Ecuadorian community and help
create a sustainable local ecology. We have been working on this eco-city project since 1999.
The interactive Green City Calendar is a weekly-updated resource
to help people find environmental volunteer options and greening projects in the San
Francisco Bay Area. Through the variety of hands-on ecosystem restorative work, bike
rides, hikes, farmer's markets, classes, workshops, and celebrations listed in this
calendar, we can build a symbiotic balance between humanity and the planet, and promote
sustainable urban living. Send listings of ecological/sustainable volunteer opportunities or
events (San Francisco Bay Area only) to: Green City Calendar, P.O. Box 31251,San
Francisco, CA 94131, Shasta Bioregion or email them to: mail@planetdrum.org.
Planet Drum maintains
Bioregional Educational Projects in both the SF Bay Area and Ecuador for
adults, students and teachers.
Listings of the latest presentations, workshops and events involving the Planet Drum crew.
We first worked with Guard Fox Watch at the Nagano Winter Olympics in 1998.
Subsequently, we developed guidelines for the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics in 2002 and
helped organize a campaign to develop eco-consciousness in their planning. We
monitored the 2006 Winter Olympic Games in Turin, Italy and continued with the 2010 Vancouver,
Canada Olympics. The project maintains an archive of writings and
suggestions for the Winter Olympics.
