Peter Eberhardt has lived in the southern Willamette valley since 1965. Trained as a geographer-cartographer at the University of Oregon, Peter has worked in local government and the private sector in Lane County as a Geographic Information System specialist and cartographer.
Recent studies, readings and films on climate change, peak oil, energy conservation and relocalization have added urgency and tension to seek local positive examples of lifestyle and systemic changes. Classes taken at Dr. Alder Fuller’s school in west Eugene in global heating and climate change and Gaia theory have been particularly galvanizing.
Downsizing, simplifying and localizing in Eugene and western Oregon are processes that Peter is deeply committed to.
Peter comments: "Documentary film making seems like one of the fastest ways to share what we learn with others. We look forward to learning a lot along the way."
