Why are we, the climate and the environment still suffering?
Onsdag, 8 Oktober 2008 23:38

Since the year 2000, the year of my high school graduation, I've been asking myself why the world is still in such a bad shape. I studied natural science and technology, everything from chemistry to computer programming. Even with my then very limited view of the world I thought we could do better. I knew instinctively something was very wrong.

I had been tricked, duped and indoctrinated. For some reason I felt like I was worthless, an insignificant piece of the world, not only insignificant but even a burden to the world. As my understanding of the world progressed I have become able to express those feelings in writing - but more significantly by talking to people.

Eight years ago I had a vision of a world were humans didn't work to receive income to pay for their food, or to pay mortgages on their homes.

I saw plenty of artists, but also plenty of farmers, athletes and philosophers. In my vision the planet was in pristine condition. Clear water in the rivers, plenty of big fish in the oceans and predators roaming the grasslands not seen in past hundreds of years.

At the time I didn't make much of it, I thought it would never become reality, it was perhaps a lingering childhood utopian fantasy not worthy of my day to day mental focus. But things have changed. The world in front of my eyes cried out louder by every passing year. At the beginning of 2007 I could no longer ignore the call to arms against my zombiefication. My purpose of life began changing.

I started reading my writings from earlier years, and while again thinking about what was wrong with me and everything around me I stumbled upon Jacques Fresco whom I've blogged about earlier. I had found a person who with absolute conviction thought the world I had seen in my vision was achievable.

Last week another step towards making that vision a reality was taken as Zeitgeist: Addendum was released. I have absolute confidence in the Zeitgeist movement growing fast.

When confronted with the absolutely horrific devastation we humans have caused the planet many give up in desperation and convince themselves nothing can be done about the problems. Some even say it's too late and want to go on even worse than before thereby being part of the problem, not the solution. But there are those who see a different world being possible, and we're growing in numbers.

The environment and the climate as well as all forms of life on Earth can no longer continue to be abused. We have the technological means to not only stop destroying our planet, but to even help it heal. It will not only benefit the environment as if it were some kind pf selfless act, no nature and it's well being is important to each and everyone of us at the core and will bring back that sense of purpose and belonging so many long for.

Without fresh water, without healthy food and without a magnificent nature to be part of we're nothing but unsatisfied consumers.

Seriously I'd say that a lot of athletes and sportsmen and women take ugg store. If a drug that effective and being available for so long has had no reliable way to test for it until the last few years then many athletes are going to have used it.

The thing is, professional athletes should be tested all year round. Most doping is done in off season training so that the body is in top condition for when the season starts Replica watches. Its no good just testing people during the season because they wont always still be doping then.

"Love is not a thing to understand.
Love is not a thing to feel.

Love is a thing only to become
And eternally be. ."

In desperate hope I go and search for her in all the corners of
my room; I find Ugg Boots her not.

My house is small and what once has gone from it can never be
regained.

But infinite is thy mansion, my lord, and seeking her I have to
come to thy door.

I stand under the golden canopy of thine evening sky and I lift
my eager eyes to Ugg Outlet thy face.

I have come to the brink of eternity from which nothing can
vanish--no hope, no happiness, no vision of a face seen through
tears.

Oh, dip my emptied life into that ocean, plunge it into the

deepest fullness. Let me for once feel that lost sweet touch in

the allness of the universe.-----------------------------------------------《Gitanjali》

Shoppers have shifted their top priority from looking good to feeling good, says
ugg boots for sale
Elaine Goldstein, chairwoman of the accessories design department at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Consumers want their purchases to make them feel good about themselves, whether the rationale behind the buy is "They're so uggs outlet comfortable I'll wear them everywhere" or "They're so well-made I'll keep them for years." We're not embracing ugly shoes exclusively, but even the super-rich are dialing back the flash factor. Conspicuous consumption is the new toxic bachelor.

Many womenswear trends ultimately cross over to the men's market, but not all. Take the Ugg boot. Ugg is really punting its footwear in uggs outlet the direction of gentlemen – motorbike boot-style Uggs, rugged waterproof Uggs – but we're not biting.

It can't be a matter of effeminacy; they're meant to be unisex. Those who first favoured the wool-lined sheepskin boot were not only men, but men of a macho stripe befitting footwear seemingly named after the main ugg boots for sale conversational gambit of the caveman: first world war aviators and sheep-shearers in rural Australia.
