Food Security - Imagine

It's March 10, 2020; I'm eating a steak dinner, made by myself. All of it being fresh ingredients, grown by myself. Just like everyone else.


Sounds normal right? Of course, because we succeeded.


We succeeded to reach a stage where we could all sustain ourselves without having to rely on others to provide a simple service to us. We succeeded to motivate ourselves to focus on improving ourselves, mentally, emotionally and physically,…

Food Security - Learn

I've been looking into the food security of the UK to see how well we are really doing; the UK doesn't seem to be a place we think of as somewhere that has any worries about shortage of food, especially since there are countries with barely any food to live on at all...but should we be thinking about the future of our own country's food security too?


I've been looking at these links:…

Alone in the Wild

Tonight I happened to turn on the TV (which is a rarity for me) and saw something really interesting.






Ed Wardle spent 50 days in the wild with just some supplies and rations,…

Social Innovation - Act 1

The hero I have chosen to shadow goes by the name of Jacque Fresco. Jacque Fresco is the founder of The Venus Project, which actively aims to solve all of the problems we face today.


I will shadow him by frequently checking the website and signing up. I will continue to find ways to shadow him.

Social Innovation - Imagine 1

In 2020, I hope to be counselling people and making a living for me and my family, I hope to be actively volunteering to make people's lives better. I want to give more people hope, and the motivation to carry on so they can help us innovate and make the world a better place, not just for us but for future generations to come.

Social Innovation - Design in Africa

In my look into Exhibit A, I found 3 things that I thought were the most important ways of sparking innovation:


- Think like a child – children have no limit to their thinking.
- Talk to the people who have the problem – and LISTEN to what they have to say.
- Go to where the action is.


In my opinion, these 3 "secrets" are the best ways of sparking innovation and seeing how to improve. The problem cannot be solved…

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.
