religion and ecology
http://www.cfore.ca/
The Canadian Forum on Religion and Ecology is engaged in exploring religious worldviews, texts, and ethics in order to broaden understanding of the complex nature of current environmental concerns within the Canadian context. It is supported by the Harvard Forum on Religion and Ecology, the largest international multireligious project of its kind.
The sciences of ecology and evolutionary biology have demonstrated that human life is rooted in and sustained by the natural world, but our present way of life is shaped by religious, cultural and economic values that do not take this ecological reality into account. The true costs of the way we live are thus hidden from us and will become clear only to future generations in whose ecological debt we currently live.

Tondakea
http://www.tondakea.tv/
We are a small studio based in Bracebridge, Ontario (and conveniently on the 45th parallel!), and are the driving force behind the Tondakea series. We have carefully crafted and evolved our work over the past twelve months, in a never-ending cycle of learning, teaching, application, rinse and repeat. Our small animation studio has come out of the time and hard work spent at Six Degrees Muskoka, a unique seasonal art gallery based in downtown Bracebridge, and founded by Don and Jen Skinner. We have been able to use the success of our past two seasons - the summer months of 2009 and 2010 - to shed light on more active and interactive mediums of art in the Muskoka area.
