We awoke to a cool morning, but the sun was shining. Sort of.
After a hearty breakfast, we spent the morning class time talking about the broad issues of sustainability and what it means and how might we arrange our lives in support of humans living more sustainably - especially from the perspective of our descendants looking back on our western lifestyles.
Then we watched a presentation about the resources issues facing us and then how two Cortland faculty members are trying to arrange their lives to live lighter on the planet.
At lunch a group of award winning New York State teachers arrived and we all went canoeing and then had a lesson by another SUNY Cortland Professor who presented a lesson on using the aquatic life found literally right outside our door to determine the general water quality level of Raquette Lake.
So far, at this point the weather has cooperated very well, but the forecast for this evening is for some potential rough weather to pass through.
Hopefully, it will not limit our planned evening activities.
