It is Christmas 2020. i am so lucky that we as humans are still here. All the power sources that use coal are gone, the only energy that is here is that from nature itself.

This is a very important task to tackle.

Fortunatly, I know somebody that has created a fantastic way to make electricity in your own house.

What he has invented is a systme that is connected to your toilet. When you go to the toilet, it transforms yout waste into a gas that is used to create electricity and power your own house.

Fantastic is it not!!!

It is friday night 2020.

I am sitting at my home made plastic table made from recycled plastic from water bottles.

I am eating lovely home cooked veggies from my veggie patch, enjoying it with lovely, suculent beef from my herd of cows that I have that roam my farm.

I am drinking water that I have caught from my rain water catcher, a device that I invented by myself.

There are no lights in my bamboo house, only burning torches surrounding my table.

Down the road from me in town, lives an old lady with two kids. She is a lovely woman with sufficient income, however she has to support a family by herself and pay for her own house.

I will help her grow her own sustainable veggie patch in her garden.

I will every week donate a small food parcel to her and her family just to help them out abit.

I will…

In my community, there are no real food crisis problems, however further down the road, in Khayelitsh, there is a shortage of food for people to eat. The people there do not have the money to buy food, so resort to eating really unhealthy food, and some not getting any, causing severe malnutrition and starving.

To fix this problem, there are several charities that donate food to this area. People are aslo trying to establish sustainable food growing areas, which will feed the smaller…

ACT 1

The person that I have chosen to follow as a hero and shadow what they do and get up to is Reid Falconer. The reason that I have chosen Reid is not only because I can keep in contact with him easily and am in the same Global Issues group as him, but becuase I am very impressed at what he has done so far, since this is a new site. He has really played his part and is doing a great job, well done Reid, keep it up. Reid is also number 1 one the leader board so I feel safe following him and…

LEARN 1

I just joined, so I am just read the first mission, and read my objective.

I found the first point really inspiring and true. INOVATION. I belive that innovation really is vital in our current times. We must make the best of what we got, and not look for other types of resources. We must use our natural and renewable recources to our planets advantage. We must use the wind, the water and the sun that the world offers us to create energy, this will sustain our planet, we don't…

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
