also discovered a very low cost way of wirelessly transmitting electricity, but
this technology was never developed, largely due to economic interests. I
felt a strength and humility in both these young men, who are doing their
part to change the world. Their simple lifestyles and mindful consumption
make for a very light carbon footprint. They are living examples of affecting
the three pillars of
sustainability: economy,

Yet, the fact remains fresh,
that this little farm is the things around
exception rather than
the rule. Many people, local
as their incomes rise,
automatically adjust their consumption accordingly. They purchase bigger
cars, houses, trips, toys and so forth. We have set the example for the world mixeD
and as third world countries rapidly develop, they too are becoming more
soul-sick, buying and consuming more and more without any thought of fruit &
the environmental costs. As overwhelming as it may seem, it is important
to not lose sight of what it could look like in a world where harmony and
respect for one another prevail. Imagine everyone on the planet worked veggie
together to care for the resources, and shared them so that no one went
without adequate food, water, or shelter. Imagine there are no separate boxes
countries and instead, there is a global consciousness of “one world” where
unity, harmony and peace prevail. In this alternate world, scientists focus
on discovering new renewable energy and life giving solutions to health to your
concerns. The economy is based on helping people rather than hurting home or office
people. Animals and plants are revered and the human population feels
a part of the life cycle rather than the dominator of it. Unlike planet Earth on maui.

understanding that if you hurt one, you hurt all. Fear and greed are not the 808-664-1129

Perhaps this is just a utopian idea that we may never see, but we cannot
give up on the inherent goodness of human nature and the Earth’s
ability to renew herself. Everyone I interviewed, both young and old, felt
that it is not too late to turn things around. They each cited examples of
alternative energy sources and innovative ideas for sustainability. We have
to remember that each of us truly does make a difference in our world. For
instance, Costco now sells organic foods because that is what people want
to buy. As we become more conscious about how we spend our time and
money, we change our society, our economics and our environment.
We are the quantum shift in creating a sustainable world.
