“Think Globally, Act Locally”—Climate change and environmental degradation have local communities on alert and self-organizing to become more sustainable and resilient. Castlemaine in Central Victoria (Australia) is renowned for its artistic, permaculture, and sustainability-oriented community. The children of Castlemaine are a particular focus for sustainability initiatives; they will be our future. A mural painted in 2007 still stands in the center of town expressing their concerns, showing their talent and reserves.
