Panelist Thomas Azwell covered Bioattenuation: the ways in which the environment itself maintains a steady state and cleans itself. He also spoke about how we can help the world to clean itself up, and the ways in which art can help this process along.
Panelist Marisha Farnsworth describes how community involvement can be used to identify sites and help keep things clean, pointing out that there are a myriad of site currently unrecognized that can be used as sites for cleaning things up...
Panelist Mark Brest van Kempen describes, of course, our own Raingarden sculpture, with a tour of past environmental art and his own previous projects, including Berkeley's own free space sculpture.
Most of the pictures here were taken by Peg Jackson, but I assume responsibility for all errors of attribution or captioning...
