Hope from our wise baby owl… A promise of removing carbon from the atmosphere by taking it out of the air and pumping the carbon deep underground. A new fuel is being manufacturered from algae and will provide clean, cheap fuel for many purposes. This fuel can be managed in a part of New Mexico and provide enough fuel for the entire United States. Water filter machines will clean any type of polluted water from any toxins at a reasonable cost. The US has the second largest supply of geothermal energy in the world. Check out the World Water Forum in New York It is currently at The Natural History Museum in Manhatten. I saw this exhibit in in January 2008 and feel much more deeply informed about our water sources and losses. This is an amazing story about the history of water on the planet and shows our strengths as well as areas where we need to be “concerned” NOW! Together we succeed…everybody all at once.

Was Darwin Right???

As man advances in civilization and small tribes are united into larger communities, the simplest reason would tell each individual that he ought to extend his social instinct and sympathies to all the members of the same nation, though personally unknown to him. This point being once reached, there is only an artificial barrier to prevent his sympathies extending to the men of all nations and races.” (Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man, 1871, Ch. 4, Comparison of the Mental Powers of Man and Lower Animals, available at The Descent of Man about 10 paragraphs from the end).

SUGAR, SUGAR, SUGAR
English billionaire Sir Richard Branson suggests the world is awash in sugar and sales of sugar for fuel would help many third world economies as well as provide cheap, accessible fuel. Note the first automobiles ran on fuel created from sugar. Branson has committed to development of fuel from sugar.
How sweet it is!

Dear Animal Lovers,
I found this 7 minute video uplifting, joyful and ultimately it left me feeling the mystery. The Elephant is just getting warmed up on this painting. Watch the video link below and see her masterpiece.
I am more committed to respecting habitats, wildlife, national parks and all things living and I am humbled as a creature who needs to deepen my sensitivity and understanding that man is not the only species important in this global quest for clean food, air, water and natural spaces.
Click and enjoy! You will be amazed.
