Solar Schoolhouse Watt Trekker Rahus Institute     For all you Greta fans out there, this short video series sharing the story of her crossing the Atlantic in a catamaran boat with the crew from Sailing La Vagabonde last November to reach the climate summit in Madrid, will entertain and inspire.    The Australian sailor couple Riley and Elayna, and their 11mo old boy Lenny, super sailor Nikki, and Greta's dad Svante round out the crew.   As with many facets of 'normal' life, our Sebastopol Carbon Conversations were put on hold, as the Corona-virus has spread,  requiring us to shelter in place, and distance from each other. Surreal and so many other things.   We found this video series entertaining and inspiring, and thus thought it might be something for families wanting something to watch together and feel good about.       Click here to View the Series on Youtube   If you finish the series, you'll want to read this article written by Nikki Henderson, the super sailor woman that was part of the crew.
