This is the way we should be designing our new world.
I designed the system to manage it.
world change.
This may sound a little far fetched, but, using a structure smiler to current.com
and current tv, I think we the people can change the world.
I have a very well thought out idea.
I would like a one on one interview with the current.com/T.V. staff,
in person.(for reasons of responsible creation)
If they think I am a nut, I will agree to be the recipient of the first crack pot award,
or some thing of that nature.
Thanks

There have been posts and discussions over the past week or so re: the relevance of Earth Day. For me, it provided a deadline to make a new commitment to action this year. I had one guiding principle: I wanted to address the growing issue of pollution in the oceans. I wanted the project to be tangible, measurable, hands on, and provide me with a way to go to one of the places I love most on this planet...the oceans. As it turns out, it's also providing me an opportunity to face a huge fear, so I feel like I'm getting two for the price of one. The project: find out how much plastic pollution I have personally contributed, and then go take it out. I took my first diving class this past Saturday...and should be ready....soon. So my promise: Is that I will share resources on this topic: what organizations are already doing this, how to find out what our personal influence is, and hopefully some fabulous underwater photos.
So join me! Looking forward to hearing what other people are willing to take on this year, and hope it brings you joy in the process.There have been posts and discussions over the past week or so re: the relevance of... more

Wait, you live in a cramped urban cell apartment with maybe a sliver of silver roof to escape to that’s cris-crossed with cable wires and littered with pigeon shit guano but you still want to be a farmer?
Now, even YOU don’t have an excuse NOT to garden!
Inventor, good friend, and gin drinker, Adam Phillips, presented me with this city person’s ultimate solution to being lazy, having a garden when you don’t have a yard, and doing it yourself with stuff you can find in the garbage.

My experiance quite profound,
Now with words I shake the ground,
Red white and blue scroled acros my sleve,
These are the colors in which I bleed,
Test my friendship, Test my dred,
Either way the living will be fed,
But if it is dred you seek,
The back of your knees should feel week,
For we as Americans are heart and mind,
And with white light in dark places,
Peace we will find.
American,traveler,poet,son.

Want solar but can’t afford it? How about getting your neighbors to help pay for it?
If plugging into solar panels were easy and cheap, we’d all be doing it. The reality is that it can be costly and confusing which leads to a lot of nervous consumers and a scarcity of solar.
One company sees the solution and is using the concept of for-profit activism to put solar power in the hands of just about anyone who’s interested. They’re called One Block Off the Grid or 1BOG.org and they organize buying syndicates to provide bulk discounts on equipment and installation.
Dave Llorens, Co-Founder and General Manager of 1BOG.org.
We put people in a big group and negotiate discounts. On top of that we’ve negotiated a financing partnership with SunRun so we have a way for people to get solar energy possibly for as little as $1000.
If you’re a renter, fear not! You can still let 1BOG know you’re interested and once a critical mass is assembled, they’ll make it possible your landlord and local legislators to get your block off the grid.

why is it that the world seams to belive that no one person can produce a solution to change the world,
lets unbridel the mind of the world and peer into posibility,free the mind of fear so it may see into the future,
then and only then will solutions present themselves in the limitless construct of the mind.
