I am a seeker and gatherer of information, and to that end I endeavor to uncover the truth.

With all the info on the Mayan Calendar and just simple facts about the state of our world, I have a tendency to go into fear, even though I want to have hope, the odds can be overwhelming.

These odds have deeply disturbed me:

Since 1950, we have lost 1/3 of all forests, ¼ of our topsoil and 1/5 of our farmland.
Over the past 100 years, we have lost ¼ of all species of plants and animals; at present rates, by the end of this century ½ of all species that live on Earth will be gone forever.
In our oceans, 2/3 of the world’s fisheries are over fished.
In the past 150 years, we have raised carbon levels in the atmosphere by 30%
We usurp and divert 55% of all fresh-water flows.
2 billion people live on less than $2 a day.
2 billion people have no electricity and use firewood to cook.
2 billion people lack sanitation, and 2.3 billion have no clean water
Nearly a billion people are severely malnourished or starving.
By the time we reach 2050, we will need to feed, clothe, house, and employ nearly twice the number of people that are on Earth today. We will need to provide for a new world. –excerpted from the book Imagine

And you know what? I am starting to believe that magic can really happen and in 50 years we will no longer pollute our planet, people will have meaningful work, people will throw off tyranny, we will be a connected world and aware, or better yet, awake, and we will see what needs to be done and we will do it.

Our planet is awakening and that goes for its peoples too……….every movement you make in the direction of healing yourself, your life and all around you is creating this change. No movement is too small.

Even if you are just “considering” that organic might be better, you are part of the healing of us all.

The information is everywhere on how to help. Start by helping yourself and stop as much pollution as you can. Demand safer products and locally grown produce, chickens, eggs, beef, honey etc.

Now is the time for hope after despair, now is the time for you to step up and take your place in healing the planet.

We can do it, we will do it, it is happening already.

GO EARTH!!!!
