Bioregionalism at continental scale.
Bioregions exist at every scale: the watershed you live in, the ecoregion that holds it, the continent that holds them all. North America, or Turtle Island in the languages of many of its first peoples, is the continental scale. The bioregional movement here is carried by gatherings, councils, and place-based federations that meet across the land.
Programs and gatherings

The Department of Bioregion organizes at the continental scale through the Congress lineage and through the bioregional Departments rooted in each contained bioregion. See Cascadia for the longest-running bioregional federation under our infrastructure.
