Wendy Sarkissian PhDWendy Sarkissian is a highly awarded author, planner, and environmental ethicist whose research, writing and activism focus on climate change. She is the lead author of the award-winning book, Kitchen Table Sustainability (Earthscan Routledge, 2009).During a long career as a planner in Australia, Wendy received over 40 professional awards and was a leading community engagement practitioner and sought-after speaker. She focuses on taking personal responsibility for sustainability issues. In the early 1990s, Wendy lived for a year in harsh conditions in tropical northern Australia to learn firsthand about climate change, ecology and caring for Nature. Creeksong: One Woman Sings the Climate Blues emerged from that experience.Wendy's current climate change activism is embodied in the powerful concept of One Earth Moment (OEM). When we consider the Earth in any context (such as a planning or housing initiative), we should take OEM to acknowledge the limits of our living Earth and our responsibilities to it.Please visit the Creeksong website (https: //creeksongbook.com) and Wendy's Amazon Author page: https: //www.amazon.com/Wendy-Sarkissian
