11th Hour News

Just watched The 11th Hour

I watched this movie and just sat there saying to myself the same thing I have been saying my whole life. Our government is full of liars, money is the only thing on their minds, PERIOD. It has always been like that. Look at Bush, he ruined our economy just to play war games for his own wants/needs. What a joke. As long as our government is in control-AND THEY CERTAINLY ARE- we are all screwed, and so is this planet. Makes me SO SICK, but I had to come here and at least check it out. We need to all stand up for our rights. Every person should STOP WORKING until the government does what WE WANT, the problem is the RICH won't join in as they are the controllers of the PUPIT government.

Make the shift, make the change! Some ideas of how to make the world a better place.

Here are the actions I have taken over the past 25 years to try and make the world a better place and preserve the planet... Some might inspire you too..

By applying conscious living to my everyday thoughts, words, and deeds, I enhance my experience of the world and enter into a mutually beneficial relationship with everything that lives...

I eat vegetarian, wholesome, locally grown organic food.

I ride my bike everywhere and car pool with a "green" friend who owns an hybrid when I really need a car.

I homeschool my child and teach her how to be a conscious human being, respectful of her environment

I recycle and re-use everything that can be in my home and outside.

I give all my clothes and other no-longer needed household items to charity. 

I minimize my use of plastic bottles and containers to the very minimum.

I buy organic or green products unless it is not available to me.

I live simply and do not partake in "consumerism".  I limit my purchases to my basic needs and enjoy living with little possessions but a lot of free time to actually live life. 

I minimize my energy consumption to my needs, remaining aware not to be wasteful.

I use recycled pieces for the most part to create Art pieces.

I never litter and I pick up garbage others leave carelessly behind, especially in natural settings. 

I have a very wholesome and healthy lifestyle, free of cigarettes and other intoxicants.  I consider my body a sanctuary and therefore honor it, thereby raising my awareness level to treat all around me as a sanctuary too and giving it the same love and respect.    

I encourage others through my inspirational writings, my Yoga Programs and my example to live a more wholesome life, respectful of all life forms.

I cultivate tolerance and love as my primary principles in order to make the world peaceful and harmonious, at least in my immediate sphere.

 I never judge.  I do what I can at the best of my ability and with my given level of awareness.  I know others do too, and so I encourage them to follow my lead through example not remonstrance.

Formed Three Counties Action

Just created the Three Counties Action Group here at 11th Hour.

I was surprised to find only 2 other UK groups currently running so decided to see if a third choice might galvanise a little more participation from these shores.

Please do take a lopok. Membership is open to all from anywhere so please accept a hearty welcome.

Community Channel's Climate Change season - 11th Hour on 18th Jan

This month on Community Channel we're still going strong with our Climate Change season.

We're delighted to be showing the 11th Hour on Monday 18th Jan @9pm (Sky 539, Virgin TV 233)

For the latest info about our Climage Change season and other news, head over to our facebook page.

Enviornment

The enviornment is pollution free but it becomes impure when we use material which produces dark fumes. The flowers and the plants have fresh seeds and vegetables. We should inhale fresh air so that the enviornment does not have a climate change. With the climate change there would be less rain and the fresh cool air would diminish. As the sun gives us solar energy to the planet of the earth.

 

Christmas Spirit, ditto

I loved the post about the house with Christmas lights, and the one next to it that said "DITTO"! How great is that. I for one am doing less consuming this Christmas, haven't been in the stores much, which is great because I didn't suffer from all the holiday overload. I thought I'd miss it but I didn't, and my family is actually giving to Hefer International for one of our gifts. I belive that our country simply has to slow down on the spending, and learn how to embrace the simpler things in life again, and I'm not immune to this need either.

 This site is a great place to exchange ideas and I am happy to see such continuing good content on so many levels. Keep it up!
