Life there seems so fragile, and then they have melting glaciers too.
Thank you for adding me.

Happy hexadecimal majority! I'm glad that you got in touch... I'm still trying to get my way around the game and am challenging myself to complete at least one mission adn see how it goes with my schedule and all.

So about my lifestyle, I'll give you an example that might speak to you. I arrived in Rygge airport on Dec 3,and started to walk out of the airport. I stuck my thumb out everytime a car came around, looking for the best place where a car could stop in spite of the scarce trafic down there. After 10 minutes, a car stops. The guy takes me to the Moss service station. As I get out of there, I ask a few people and finally get a ride with a soldier going to a base Northwest of Oslo to carry a messenger duty. I'm grateful for it because it's in the right direction for me (headed to Grorud, where my best friend lives). With a few indications, he decides to drive me to her place, as I know how to get there on foot and do not know the address :) Two nights after, I go on my first dumpster-diving experience in Norway, at the Furuset shopping center. I come back with a lot of fruits (mainly bananas, apple and pineapple). This gave me the opportunity to discuss about food waste and values with my best friend, an unconditional of Tax Free shops and expensive sungla****. She tells me she's going with some friend to Harrytur for New Year's the day after and I'm welcome to come. As I have an acquaintance I volunteered online with in Grebbestad, Sweden, on the way down to Götenburg, I ask if she'd mind me spending two nights there and back. No problem. I withdraw some NOKs to buy bread, dark chocolate and public transportation tickets. I head down to Sweden and have two quiet days with my retired friends, making Christmas spicy cookies and enjoying the shore. I hitchback in one ride to Moss with an English trucker, and we're stopped at the border so have plenty of time to chat. Well, enough for this story - it was just a glimpse :)
Let's evoke soon!

Constructive criticism and playing devils advocate in a delicate manner is going to be key, I think.

wow... i get what you are saying about us thinking of the future, and 2020 is a good date for it for sure :) but to think that we might actually be held accountable (even in an amusing way) to what we say today... wow, there's some deep play potential there, and i suspect the depth is in you, not this game... hell, i'll vote for you if you can make this more of a reality... i might suggest we might combine it with a year's leap too :)

The problem with world wide fixes is that often, those fixes will drown in political mayhem. Just like at COP15 in Copenhagen. What came out of that? Not much. Why? No compromise was found.

The question is how to affect change, on a local as well as global level, working With the limitations in today's political climate, and not just banging our head against the wall, saying "But USA (or China, Russia, etc) doesn't want to support our worthy cause!"

Sustainable Development: First i love it because it solves problems we have NOW with solutions that will last for generations to come. With an ongoing cycle of this type of development the human race would be literally unstoppable (except by large meteorites and solar flares and other one a million shots).

Another turn on for me is the fact that most of these solutions are large scale. WORLD WIDE fixes for problems that affect everyone.

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. 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.
