A crash course in changing the world.
If you want to enter the dragons den, it's wize to tame the dragon first, especially if you want to use that den as a fire extinguishing business.
FACT: In the womb, we are assigned GENITALIA AFTER we are assigned/recognised as human - which is why you can only get to see the sex of your baby from about 25 weeks.
We are human before we are male and femail or transgender or…

Since the arrival of Free solar roofing and Global Gyms...(financed by the five year global halt of spending on Space exploration, nuclear missile production and war and military operations) the latter idea taken from Hong Kong, where the first energy saving gym was constructed, we all have free power.
Everyone is scrambling for an appointment to go to the gym - they all know it is generating our power, and people are using the gyms for other reasons now - the same people are…

We in the UK are food secure. We know that if we wanted healthy diets, organic produce from locally sourced markets, we could if we really wanted to – get it.
Why am I talking like this – what do I mean “if we wanted?” I am going to give you some examples from the UK…

I come from a food secure country. However, our urban ma**** aren't in touch with the sourses of the food. This is being overcome by the folowing means. This is just a drip in the ocean.

1) Farmers Markets - Local farmers get to sell their produce in Urban Centres.
2) Abel and Cole - Organic fruit and vegetable boxes…

She is re-writing her best seller throughout summer 2010 and releasing it later in the year. Her original work, 'Liberation Ecology - Reframing Six Disempowering Ideas That Keep Us from Aligning with Nature - even our own' may be called something…
