Our civilization has reached the
point where some of the development models, traditionally based on continuous
growth and expansion are reaching their limits.
Old models of consumption which tolerate or even
encourage waste in order to create more demand for production and commerce
are also reaching their limits as resources become more scarce.
As air, water and soil pollution levels increase so do the
incidence rates of diseases, not to mention the reduction of quality in
our general experience. Water becomes undrinkable and air
becomes unbreathable, when filled with toxins.
There are methods of generating energy that do not
create pollution, are not wasteful and will last much longer. Given
the current situation that we find ourselves in with oil dependency, the
time has come to utilize these methods. The links
you find here are starting points for adventures in learning how to
apply these methods for your own benefit and that of the rest of us
Earthlings. If you would like to contribute in any
way, please contact
