Leonardo DiCaprio's "The 11th Hour" is a documentary concerning the environmental crises caused by human actions and calls for restorative action through a reshaping of human activity.
The mission of our community is to inspire action at every level: from
individual action, up through our communities, to the state, national
and international level. The actions are all shifting our civilization
to a sustainable future. Let's work and take action together. The time is now. The hope is you. Let's begin.
Yes, they can be adorable, fun, and even relaxing. However, while you're glancing at puppies, your favorite movies, or white sand beaches, stop to consider this: screen savers use energy while you're not using your computer! Forecast Earth correspondent Don Willmott explains, "in the good old days of tube monitors, screen savers such as those unforgettable flying toasters were invented to prevent burn-in, a permanent shadow branded into the phosphors of your monitor by a static image…well, flat-screen LCD monitors don't burn in.” So, take action and when not using your computer either put it to sleep (yep, that’s what that function is for) or turn it off and unplug it.
what we see in the world is the unbalance in our human minds: we are so unhealty - it begins to listen to the silence again and to remember that we just take what we need - but we don't know what we need anymore, we are spoiled, the balance is gone.....
earth will survive - we have to reset our global mind and just now it's possible because there is nobody who can say "I didn't know" - we have to tell our children of what we did wrong to break patterns and to develop a new state of consious - we really have to believe what
God, Allah, Great Spirit tell us - true source of everything is love is caring for humanity and mother earth - let go of our egocentric believes which so are founded on fears - we have to learn to listen to the silence again and to see whit our eyes closed to reestablish the true contact with our nature. ourselves and mother earth. than our behaviour can chance......
It's important to my family and I to do this right...so we are taking every precaution possible to keep from omitting unessesary Co2 into the enviroment or waste energy, matirials, or water. We recycle, have a compst heap, are working on a vegetable garden, switched our lightbulbs to compact flourescent ones, are "shopping green", keep the cars maintained and use them as alittle as possible, shortened showering time, unplug and turn off everything and anything not in use, have our guests use the recycling bins instead of the trashcan, open the windows and turn off the cooling in good weather, try and use lamps instead of overhead lights, wash cloths in cold water, walk and bikeride for fun and when it's practical, shut down computers after every use, and don't run the water while shaving or brushing our teeth. All of these things are really simple and small and save thousands of pounds of CO2 from entering the atmosphere, plus thousands of dollars ever year.
I hopefully am already taking action by actively recycling and buying recycled things, all my light bulbs have been changed to energy efficient ones. We only use car for long distance and will walk if need be, tyres on car are always at pressure.
