Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

In 2020, I will be celebrating a new festival, one that will be borne out of the movement for self-reliance, sustainability and re-use, 'Festival of Sustainability'

Don't mistake the 'festival of sustainability' for a pagan-style worship of soil, because it would be about people's ability to unite in communities, draw on their individual skills and talents, and create areas where vegetables, food and livestock are grown and kept to reduce climate impact, as well as awakening people to the effort and energy required to create produce.

Lighting would be supplied by solar panels that contained human hair (see my previous blog post) and any food would be home grown. While the festival is designed to celebrate sustainability, it will also recognize the symbiosis between self-reliance and using consumables.

everyone would have arrived by bicycle, each of which would have an attached dynamo, which would power music systems for jamming sessions on instruments, while dinner was cooking on a solar cooker ; http://solarcooking.org/plans/ ; - While waiting for dinner to be ready, people would be able to share stories of how their sustainable farming has been coming along, and how their sustainable holidays educated them in how to live more responsibility.

Friendship is hugely important, and this ties into the sense of community I believe in so strongly, as I've advocated throughout my blog, and the festival of sustainability would celebrate this community coming together to provide for itself!

I'd also end the day by going on a bike ride to watch the sun set over a world where there was love and care instead of War and anger..

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

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.

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.
