What does a belief in the earth offer humanity?

When we talk about belief we talk about valuing the earth in our everyday lives the way we value our family, friends and community.
At the moment, we live in a State of Separation. Our lives are lived separate from the reality of the earths systems, both physically and philosophically.
One could even argue that many global [...]

How Evolution Works

I was never into the maths of evolution (actually I was never into maths period so maybe that explains a few things).
I look at a reptile whose skin perfectly camouflages it against a complex background and I go ‘how in the hell is that possible?’ I see a plant whose flower ingeniously imitates the [...]

The Great Google-Green Day Mashup

Just had an interesting thought the other day messing around on Google Earth. The Green Day reference has nothing to do with music by the way. It’s what I am calling the time when we eventually stop living in ways that is damaging and disrespectful to the earth.
Google Earth. There you have it. Our entire [...]

The Magical Online Rubbish Tip

Interesting article over on Living in a Toxic World about on-line software removing our need for old hardware and thus reducing electronic waste. Why buy Vista and Office when you get download a free OS and use Google Docs? Why store all your personal and business files locally when they can be securely stored and [...]

About Updated

The last version was far too long and off the point. I considered a painfully honest (yet amusing) page outlining the absolutely horrendous discrepencies between my ‘official’ CV and the reality of the career that lay behind it. I’ve seen a number of these around the net and they are educational to say the least.
But [...]

Forget ’slow news day’ - THIS… is Lazy Post day!

Just watched Lions for Lambs and I was debating a solid review until I found this little gem in my hard drive - a gift from a friend. In the future, people should really be able to share audio-visual content the way we used to make tapes for our friends back in the crazy C20’s. [...]

Earth Liberation Front - You Know… Morons!!

I found this worrying article over one www.weearth.com. The genius’s over at E.L.F. are at it again. ‘”Built Green? Nope black!” read a spray-painted sign bearing the ELF initials at the now devastated site.’ Cute. Some new recruit definitely got the day off for that one. As he walked home, he probably spent most of [...]

Documentary Series - Addicted To Oil

This was the big one. Everyone and their mother is talking about the oil industry today with the rising costs, environmental problems and political fallout. But it was the story of how the situation got to where it was today that I loved. I read ‘Who Won the Oil Wars?’ by Louis Gale which gave [...]

The Seiderhouse Rules!

I just discovered a new word thanks to this gentleman, Eric Seider. I am too tired now to ponder it any futher, but I believe I believe it is a word that will become very important to me, to human communities and to the earth overall.
And that word is ‘permaculture’. Google it. Read about it. [...]

Obama On American Energy Future

Who knows if my man will get in. Ill have to tuck into my news feeds here to see how the election is going. Regardless it is great to see someone who people respect so much talking sense about the earth, wherever he ends up.
I am not happy with a few of the ideas or [...]
