The Cure of the Earth | Charles Eisenstein

15 July 2020 Leave a Comment

"The Amazon is one of the most intensely alive places on Earth. I won’t bore you with a rendition of its ecological services, nor its role in anchoring the planet’s patterns of rainfall. Nor will I recite the horrible things that may happen to us humans should it disappear. "Why won’t I? Simply, because no one can be scared into falling in love. "Love of life is the guide and motivator of ecological healing on Earth. Next comes learning how to put that love into action. How do we do that for … Continue reading

Thinking Outside the Grid | Steven Gorelick

13 November 2019 Leave a Comment

"As the planet heats up and critical resources run low, people will need to adapt in a number of ways. For those of us in the industrialized, over-developed world, one of the most important will be to replace our sense of entitlement with a sense of limits. Our high-consumption lifestyles will be difficult to disengage from – not because they are inescapable products of human nature, but because they are essential to the “growth strategies” of powerful big businesses. The irony is that … Continue reading

Vandana Shiva: Everything I Need to Know I Learned in the Forest

22 September 2019 Leave a Comment

"We need to value nature’s biodiversity, clean water, and seeds. For this, nature is the best teacher. "The forest teaches us union and compassion. "The forest also teaches us enoughness: as a principle of equity, how to enjoy the gifts of nature without exploitation and accumulation. Tagore quotes from the ancient texts written in the forest: “Know all that moves in this moving world as enveloped by God; and find enjoyment through renunciation, not through greed of possession.” No species in … Continue reading

We, the peoples of the Amazon, are full of fear. Soon you will be too by Raoni Metuktire | The Guardian

3 September 2019 Leave a Comment

"You have to change the way you live because you are lost, you have lost your way. Where you are going is only the way of destruction and of death. To live you must respect the world, the trees, the plants, the animals, the rivers and even the very earth itself. Because all of these things have spirits, all of these things are spirits, and without the spirits the Earth will die, the rain will stop and the food plants will wither and die too. "We all breathe this one air, we all drink the same … Continue reading

"Rainforests - ecological marvels, millions of years in the making - rainforests provide water and food and livelihoods for billions of people around the world. They contain a staggering diversity of life. They create the oxygen we breathe and regulate our climate. They are our life-support system. But rainforests are at grave risk.

The zero waste revolution: how a new wave of shops could end excess packaging | The Guardian

20 August 2019 Leave a Comment

"Shops that minimise the environmental impact of our consumer habits are springing up across Britain. Could they help us avert catastrophe? "The smell in Natural Weigh, a zero-waste shop that opened a year ago in Crickhowell in mid-Wales, is lovely. The shop – filled with pasta, grains, seeds and dried fruit served from hoppers to avoid plastic packaging; washing-up liquid and laundry products that customers pump into their battered old squeezy bottles; fair-trade coffee and chocolate, plus an … Continue reading
