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?

Our place is different
Data? it is much more obvious than needing data. If you believe that this is all here just for us, than you would think we are doing pretty good trying to make total and complete use of resources. That is wretched ignorant stupidity. They are not "peoples’ resources" they are part of the ecosystem as… Continue reading Our place is different
“Be the change you want to see in the world”

One responded with the beautiful Mahatma line as a possible summary. my reply: Socio-Agro-ecologist says: "In this case 'be the change you want to see in your life.' In the massively off track world that we live… Continue reading “Be the change you want to see in the world”
My Comment on mining permits in Prime Farmland
Socio-Agro-ecologist says: Modern ag can be not only sustainable but regenerative, admittedly most is not, but we have the knowledge to be. That said, how could any good policy take prime ag land and give it to an industry that could never be sustainable? I am not ready to discount mining as past its time,… Continue reading My Comment on mining permits in Prime Farmland
Feeding the world.. what a silly concept!
Sustainable Agriculture comment about feeding 10 bn people: Socio-Agro-ecologist says: Feeding 10 bn... We don't need to feed 10 bn. Every community needs to feed itself. Feeding the world should not even be in our sustainable agriculture vocabulary! Promoting the need to feed the world has been one of the most damaging ideas ever promoted.… Continue reading Feeding the world.. what a silly concept!
