In this setting earth-conscious individuals may be more apt to try out new ecological activities or add elements to their already eco-friendly lifestyle. Regular content is published through the A Sustainable Mind podcast, audio-only episodes available online, and a discussion group is growing with the participation of regular listeners. This is reflected in the podcast’s signature phrase, “Alone we can impact a few but together we can change the world.” A Sustainable Mind is a seed from which an inclusive community of like-minded individuals is growing, offering education and a safe-space to discuss and practice personal sustainability. The goal is to increase support and spread awareness and actions for sustainability. The project seeks to forge stronger relationships between experts - highly skilled and dedicated individuals within the area of environmental sustainability - and the podcast’s target audience - everyday people who desire positive environmental change but lack the resources to accomplish it.

Poe leaves many of the details of the story mysterious and unresolved. The suspense builds incrementally, and only when we see that Ligeia has entered Rowena’s body do we realize the many questions the narrative raises. We notice Poe’s careful references to the narrator’s opium habit and the overly rich, sensuous gloom in the castle apartment in which he and Rowena live, but feel mesmerized by the narrator’s description of Ligeia. Having remarried, he treats his second wife abominably as he recalls for the readers the history of his relationship with Ligeia. Clearly the narrator is obsessed with Ligeia. This powerful tale about Ligeia, a strong-willed woman who wills herself back to life in the body of Rowena, the narrator’s second wife, may be read, as critic Gordon Weaver observes, as a story of either madness or the occult (Current-García 67). In the tale Poe also makes use of the unreliable narrator whom the reader must constantly distrust. In a tightly knit plot that relies on sensational incidents, the narrator’s sharp focus on Ligeia leads to the stunning and ambiguous denouement. ![]() It achieves Poe’s goal of the “single effect” through the narrator’s focus on Ligeia, his deceased wife. Suffused with a gloom reminiscent of that of “ The Fall of the House of Usher,” “Ligeia” remains one of Edgar Allan Poe’s best-known stories. ![]() ![]() ![]() Meg and her boyfriend arrive at the house only to discover that Meg's parents and siblings, along with their spouses are all there.
