EcA/Environmental Compulsions Anonymous/Ecoholics Anonymous/Econon is a 12
step program for people dealing with their powerlessness over compulsions
in/of/from/about etc. their environment.  Research on addictions and 
compulsions has shown that the greatest amount of recovery occurs when recovery
is focused on the larger systems rather that the smaller units of those systems.
That is why a spiritual focus is so often critical, because spiritual usual means
whatever makes up the larger whole from which the smaller parts were taken.

That larger whole for most humans is our natural environment and the critical dysfunction
is the compulsion to wasteful use environmental resources.  Some members of
EcA like to emphasize the similarity and the relationship between this dysfunction
and alcoholism by calling it "ecoholism."  Some may find this 
neologism distasteful.
.
EcA is a program that encourages participation by a broad spectrum 
of 
persons who are powerless over people, places, and things: addicts,
alcoholics, compulsives, codependents, enablers, problem users, 
etc.  It accepts
a broad spectrum of programs: conservative and liberal, traditional 
and
 non-traditional, theistic and atheistic.

We believe that recovery is encourage by examining the larger 
picture of
our dysfunction in the larger framework of our relationships.  For
