Dear Kids of the Past, August 24, 2020
My name is Rachel Hamilton and I am 27 years old. I want you guys to realize that you are the future. When I was your age I didn’t know a thing about politics, global warming, world hunger, etc. You need to educate yourselves before it’s too late. When I was 18 the world was beginning to face the serious outcomes of global warming and now, 9 years later, we’re suffering for it.
The soil of our Earth needs to be taken care of. When I was 18 (2011) our soil was just at its turning point. We could still grow pretty much all of our crops, but farmers could tell that their enriched soil days were coming to a close. In places like Africa over 50% of the soil was not able to be used for growing crops anyways. And that was in 2011, so now it’s nearly impossible to find proper soil anywhere. Due to the lack of commitment to our Earth over the years, we have had to come together as a wh*** and support each part of the world. Because I am still living in Canada, part of our country is still able to export vegetables. I happen to live in an area where I am able to grow plants and food properly. I have my own vegetable garden and I donate many of them to local food markets so they don’t have to accept as many imported vegetables and therefore more countries who are in need can eat healthily.
The other day I was eating dinner with my family and thinking about how things have changed. I use to eat at the table with my 2 brothers and my 2 parents. A typical meal would be peppers, carrots, and asparagus for vegetables, a chicken breast and some potatoes. Now we eat genetically modified foods. Not many fruits or vegetables are home grown anymore due to soil. The process of genetically modified foods is becoming more intricate and the products are becoming much more unique. Before you know it, we’re going to be eating everything made out of a test tube. Here are some pictures of the food we now eat!
Take care of our Earth!
Sincerely,
Rachel Hamilton

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
Stinging Nettle
In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. 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.

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.
