GMO's are not all created equal. Some accelerate natural plant breeding keeping the sanctity of "species". Others pervert species with what is like a Russian roulette with nature. Precaution and non-insanity mean we must get science back to discovery in reverence for nature to avoid dismantling something far greater and more complex and complete than we could create… Continue reading My two cents on the GMO debate…

Response to a discouraged biologist who believes nature may not be the answer…
I appreciate your perspective, really interesting. We are a million miles apart in perspective and in the direction in which we see hope for the future. I agree that there are components of our civilization that are 100% counter-sustainable. One example may be the complete overriding of natural survival which over time would tend to… Continue reading Response to a discouraged biologist who believes nature may not be the answer…
Brainstorm on cities and food
Cities need better support and they need to give back more than their garbage. Precision ag has to do with finely tuned soils, nutrition and irrigation. This is a good fit around cities. Cities are typically on and around prime agricultural zones. They have the capacity to chip in to promote and develop a high… Continue reading Brainstorm on cities and food
Genghis-Khan-ism
Support the idealism and natural conscience development in the generations who are coming of age.At the same time raise up truth, declare that truth can be perceived from different angles but is definitely not relative and therefore should be grasped and held onto as a pillar in a world of brainwashing psycho-manipulation where we need… Continue reading Genghis-Khan-ism

We can create the needed change…
It's tough, but nothing is too tough, we just have to find all the answers one at a time. The answer sure is not to specialize. ecologists must be sociologists, wise to and powerful toward the politics, and everything along the way. We need people to master all variety of relevant knowledge, then come together… Continue reading We can create the needed change…
Minerals of life!
We do not need to account for energy use in sustainable biology based systems. We receive energy in plenty freely from the sun on our planet. It is dispersed in wind, evapotranspiration, heat, plant growth... and generally comes to equilibrium (though that is in question now over the long term). The earth receives all the… Continue reading Minerals of life!
Sustainable?
I would say "permaculture" is our greatest answer to the future. It is huge and includes all types and all aspects and is growing exponentially in all countries of the planet. All are working with their ideas of appropriate technology. Some are changing from a suit and tie to use the tie as a strap… Continue reading Sustainable?
Who will change the world?
100% middle class is the goal of the corporations in charge of this huge production facility we call the earth. A well cared for workforce, the middle class is the most distracted of all; not only do they toe the line working their regular hours of drudgery from youth to old age supporting the plundering… Continue reading Who will change the world?
More on conversion of farmland to mines
Someone's reply that mining is going alright: Socio-Agro-ecologist The transition to sustainable industry is our inevitable future, the question is how long until we reach that day. I said "I am not ready to discount mining as past its time, rather I would assert that it is past its prime". How much "resource" needs to… Continue reading More on conversion of farmland to mines
