Planet Drum Foundation
ENGL 723 Problems in Themes and Ideas in Literature: Bioregional Literature and Theory is a graduate seminar that was first offered by the University of Nevada, Reno, English Department for the Spring 2012 semester. The Planet Drum Foundation, headquartered in San Francisco, California, is a pioneering non-profit bioregional organization that was founded in 1973 to provide an effective grassroots approach to ecology that emphasizes sustainability, community self-determination, and regional self-reliance. In association with community activists and ecologists, Planet Drum developed the concept of "bioregion." Planet Drum's mission is to promote awareness of sustainable strategies for human inhabitation of the earth based on bioregions where people live. Its vision is a truly sustainable world in which humans are harmonious with and respectful of the natural environment.
