  • Parenting… a Radical, Political Act & Synergy...

    Rated Sep 05 2 reviews activism, nutrition, parenting, environment, politics synergymag.ca

    From the page: "with each and every act that I perform in my role as â€oemother” and â€oehomemaker”, I am acting from a deeply political and deeply personal place.

    For each time I feed my children fresh fruits and vegetables that Iâ€ve grown myself, I am sticking it to the industrial agricultural complex. I am denouncing monocultures: the great fields of chemically-dependent wheat and soybeans and corn that pollute our water systems, destroy bio-diversity and concentrate land into fewer and fewer hands.

    Each time I cook a meal for my family, I am laughing at the fast food industryâ€s sordid attempts to lure my children to obesity and diabetes.

    Each time I grow and gather herbs to heal my family with, I am denying the legitimacy of the pharmaceutical companies. My family wonâ€t be peeing out anti-depressants that will eventually make their way back into our drinking water, the ocean and several species of fish. My children wonâ€t be one of the 10,000 deaths in Canada this year due to adverse reactions to prescription drugs."

    Finanacial Permaculture removes our time, attention and money from investments in global corporations that destroy local culture and ecology for profit, and re-invests capital in local enterprises that put people and planet on their bottom line ledger.

    Financial Permaculture is the conscious whole system design of human financial systems to create a zero waste economy that cares for the earth, the people and distributes surplus of material, currency and knowledge in a fair and equitable manner.

  • BC Hydro - Why Join Team Power Smart? Because it matters

    Rated Nov 02 2008 1 review environment bchydro.com

    From the page: "BC Hydro has introduced, as of October 1, the conservation rate, a two-step rate structure that will raise the price of electricity for those who use more than 1,350 kilowatt hours of electricity in a two-month period. For 70% of us, that means our annual electricity spend should either stay the same or go down. But it should be a wake-up call to us all and help push us toward conservation."

  • Awakening the Dreamer: A New Initiative

    Rated Oct 30 2008 2 reviews environment planetthoughts.org

    The international Awakening the Dreamer movement is, like Transition, an organized approach to allowing communities to re-invent themselves in an energy-efficient, planet-protecting, and sustainable manner of living. Emphais is placed on spiritual and emotional change as well, and this is particular to the Awakening the Dreamer effort.

    Floods in the UK affects 900 marathoners: "Emergency teams from across the Lake District were working to take the competitors from the Original Mountain Marathon (OMM) to safety. The manager of Honister Slate Mine, near Keswick, Cumbria, said he had sheltered up to 300 of the runners.

    A spokeswoman at Mary Hewetson Cottage Hospital in Keswick said they had admitted 13 casualties suffering from hypothermia and minor injuries.

    She said they had since been transferred for treatment at Cumberland Infirmary in Carlisle and West Cumberland Hospital in Whitehaven."

  • Breakthrough in Energy Storage: Storing Large Quantities...

    Rated Oct 05 2008 4 reviews environment, energy industry planetthoughts.org

    "Engineers and scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have achieved a breakthrough in the use of a one-atom thick structure called "graphene" as a new carbon-based material for storing electrical charge in ultracapacitor devices, perhaps paving the way for the massive installation of renewable energies such as wind and solar power.

    The researchers believe their breakthrough shows promise that graphene (a form of carbon) could eventually double the capacity of existing ultracapacitors, which are manufactured using an entirely different form of carbon.

    "Through such a device, electrical charge can be rapidly stored on the graphene sheets, and released from them as well for the delivery of electrical current and, thus, electrical power," says Rod Ruoff, a mechanical engineering professor and a physical chemist. "There are reasons to think that the ability to store electrical charge can be about double that of current commercially used materials. We are working to see if that prediction will be borne out in the laboratory."
