Understanding Sustainable Spirit March 31, 2005 6:24 PM


What is Sustainable Spirit anyway?

Well we are a non-profit organization that has really taken off since last May. The idea was birthed by a beautiful spirit by the name of Fiona Young from New Zealand. I met her May 1st 2004 and we brainstormed and collaborated and really got some good roots in the ground. Now we are spreading out all over the globe!

I will be certain to post updates and actions going on from us in this thread!

Here are the basics of who we are and what we stand for!

SHARE AWARENESS (of our challeges and solutions to these challenges we can empower ourselves with)
SHARE INSPIRATION (thru creativity...music, art, poetry, etc..., and thru living examples, films, speakers, stories, through deepened understanding of the interconnectedness of life, solidarity...etc...)
EMPOWERMENT (to help empower people with experience, skills,
knowledge, awareness, support, etc.. to step forth on a path of
respect & solidarity for life in all its diversity, embracing peaceful
non-violent action, positive communication, holistically sustainable
living (sustaining harmonious balance for the health and vitality of all
living beings and our natural and social environment where we
empower ourselves and our communities with our positive choices....)
CULTIVATING CONSCIOUS COMMUNITY (to bring together those
wanting to embrace and learn more about living in a respectful and
caring and compassionate way, to create space for a diversity of
information that is charged with energy for the greatest good of all,
to help the creation of supportive networks supporting local and
global intitives and networks for the healing of our planet and all life
on Earth.

> Specific Focuses sustainable spirit is working to develop upon

*stopping the privatization of water by having it recognized as a global common and basic human right and water quality issues,

*awareness of the consciousness of water (Dr. Masaru Emoto), intention and energy.

*awareness about the destruction of our ancient forests, especially
focusing upon the forgotten boreal forests and how we can help
protect them,

*Understanding energy, our power to heal ourselves and our planet
and our power to manifest our own reality.

*Understanding whats happening with oil and chemicals and sharing
about the incredible alternatives we have like Hemp and Neem,

*EMERGY (meaning embodied energy, eg, how much energy was involved with bringing that from a to f), Organics, GE FREE,
understanding the power of our consumer choices &
Permaculture...saving our soil and our ability to grow our own food and have clean water to drink….

*Holistically Sustainable living : tips, Appropriate technology,
conscious choices and recipes for health of self, community of life,
and Planet,
*Respect and solidarity for life in all its diversity
*Respect, rethink, reduce, reuse & recycle

SPREADING THE LOVE!!!
