How to Save The World

What does an environmentally friendly biodynamic food system capable of feeding everyone actually look like? This film is a blueprint for a post-industrial future. It takes you into the heart of the world’s most important renaissance.

The outcome of the battle for agricultural control in India may just dictate the future of the earth. Modern industrial agriculture is destroying the earth: Desertification, water scarcity, toxic cocktails of agricultural chemicals pervading our food chains, ocean ecosystem collapse, soil erosion and massive loss of soil fertility.

Our ecosystems ore overwhelmed. Humanity’s increasing demands are exceeding the Earth’s carrying capacity. A simple recipe to save the world? One old man and a bucket of cow-dung. Are you crazy?

Modern agriculture causes topsoil to be eroded at 3 million tons per hour. (that’s 26 billion tons a year) Human mass is replacing biomass and other species. The carrying capacity of the earth is almost spent. To maintain our comfort zone lifestyles we will soon need five earths to sustain us in the style to which we have become accustomed.

The mantra of free trade has failed the world’s poor. There is a better way. Biodynamic agriculture may be the only answer we have left.

Secret of Nikola Tesla (full length)

Nikola Tesla (Serbian Cyrillic: Никола Тесла; 10 July 1856 -- 7 January 1943) was a Serbian-American[2][3] inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, physicist, and futurist best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electrical supply system.[4]

Tesla started working in the telephony and electrical fields before emigrating to the United States in 1884 to work for Thomas Edison. He soon struck out on his own with financial backers, setting up laboratories/companies to develop a range of electrical devices. His patented AC induction motor and transformer were licensed by George Westinghouse, who also hired Tesla as a consultant to help develop an alternating current system. Tesla is also known for his high-voltage, high-frequency power experiments in New York and Colorado Springs which included patented devices and theoretical work used in the invention of radio communication,[5] for his X-ray experiments, and for his ill-fated attempt at intercontinental wireless transmission in his unfinished Wardenclyffe Tower project.[6]

Until recently, no one would have believed that an undesirable cigarette butt could have a chance to be used again. But now it could end up as a tiny piece of plastic — in a piece of outdoor furniture, an ashtray or a plastic pallet for industrial use.

“Our company has been committed to environmental sustainability since we were founded 30 years ago,” Cressida Lozano says. “We’re proud to be the exclusive sponsor of an innovative program to reduce and recycle cigarette butt litter, regardless of which manufacturer made the cigarettes.”

FLOW - For Love Of Water - Full Length

Irena Salina's award-winning documentary investigation into what experts label the most important political and environmental issue of the 21st Century - The World Water Crisis.

Salina builds a case against the growing privatization of the world's dwindling fresh water supply with an unflinching focus on politics, pollution, human rights, and the emergence of a domineering world water cartel.

Interviews with scientists and activists intelligently reveal the rapidly building crisis, at both the global and human scale, and the film introduces many of the governmental and corporate culprits behind the water grab, while begging the question 'CAN ANYONE REALLY OWN WATER?'

Beyond identifying the problem, FLOW also gives viewers a look at the people and institutions providing practical solutions to the water crisis and those developing new technologies, which are fast becoming blueprints for a successful global and economic turnaround.

PBS Special - Liquid Assets, The Story of Our Water Infrastructure

Documentary Themes The Fundamental Public Health System We Take for Granted

Essential to all life on earth, water is the provenance of civilization. Throughout history, thriving cities have had in common the presence of a water infrastructure. Much of the original American infrastructure, however, is still unchanged and in use today. This section will illuminate the integral role of water and wastewater infrastructures in our lives, offering a brief history of wastewater practices, in addition to accounts of the burdens placed on, and the neglect of, our current system.

A Watershed Protection Approach

To understand the risks of neglecting our buried assets, we need to understand our role in watersheds and hydrologic/geologic cycles. This section will follow the natural cycle of our water supply and address the health and environmental hazards that our cities face when industrial and residential districts unsustainably interface with the water cycle.

An Engineering Marvel—Seeing the Unseen

Simply considering the complexity of constructing a system serving a city the size of Philadelphia or Atlanta is daunting, but the task of restoring a broken system is even more so. With the help of 3-D imaging and dynamic animation, this section will visually expose America’s underground and explore, with engineers, the technical complexity of our national infrastructure.

21st Century Solutions

The preceding section will dovetail into this one, which will explore the innovative solutions being developed by engineers to address infrastructure rehabilitation needs. Buried asset management, robotic pipe inspections, engineering research, pipe restoration and replacement technologies—these concepts, along with the best practices from around the country, will be explored, revealing a portrait of 21st century technology, economics, and solutions.

The Challenge

Hundreds of billions of dollars are required to restore America’s infrastructure. This section will track how cities and regions are confronting infrastructure rehabilitation, both economically and politically.

The Global Consciousness Project

Dean Radin: The Global Consciousness Project

Coherent consciousness creates order in the world

Subtle interactions link us with each other and the Earth

When human consciousness becomes coherent and synchronized, the behavior of random systems may change. Quantum event based random number generators (RNGs) produce completely unpredictable sequences of zeroes and ones. But when a great event synchronizes the feelings of millions of people, our network of RNGs becomes subtly structured. The probability is less than one in a billion that the effect is due to chance. The evidence suggests an emerging noosphere, or the unifying field of consciousness described by sages in all cultures.

The Global Consciousness Project is an international, multidisciplinary collaboration of scientists and engineers. We collect data continuously from a global network of physical random number generators located in 70 host sites around the world. The data are transmitted to a central archive which now contains more than 12 years of random data in parallel sequences of synchronized 200-bit trials every second.

Our purpose is to examine subtle correlations that reflect the presence and activity of consciousness in the world. We hypothesize that there will be structure in what should be random data, associated with major global events. The data overall show a highly significant departure from expectation, confirming this prediction. Go to the Main Menu on the left to learn how the science is done. For some philosophical and interpretive perspectives, look to the Aesthetics menu.

  1. Narrator: As the 21st century began, human evolution was at a turning point. Natural selection, the process by which the strongest, the smartest, the fastest, reproduced in greater numbers than the rest, a process which had once favored the noblest traits of man, now began to favor different traits. Most science fiction of the day predicted a future that was more civilized and more intelligent. But as time went on, things seemed to be heading in the opposite direction. A dumbing down. How did this happen? Evolution does not necessarily reward intelligence. With no natural predators to thin the herd, it began to simply reward those who reproduced the most, and left the intelligent to become an endangered species.

Making a Killing: The Untold Story of Psychotropic Drugging - Full Movie (Documentary)

This video provides the facts about psychotropic drugs and the huge profits they create for the pharmaceutical industry. These drugs are not safe and have not been on the market long enough to provide sufficient long term studies regarding their effects. These drugs do cause addiction, however most "doctors" would call this dependence because you do not have to take an increasing dose over time. They are completely fine with you being addicted to the same amount of any given drug on a daily basis. Over half of the people that commit suicide in the United States are prescribed to psychotropic drugs. (Ex: Paxil (Paroxetine), Zoloft (Sertraline), Prozac, Wellbutrin (Bupropion), Effexor, Seroquil, Ultram (Tramadol), etc.)

432 Hz vs 440Hz

History History of the Change

In 1939 Joseph Goebbels (propaganda Minister for Nazi Germany) was the first to push for all music world wide to be played and listened to at A-440Hz. He failed. But in 1953 the Elite had a meeting in London to finally IMPOSE the a-440Hz Standard Concert Pitch and Succeeded. Prof Dussaut of the Paris conservatory had a poll of over 20,000 of the head classical musicians of France and they all voted unanimously for A-432hz but the Elite does not care what others think now do they?


There is more than one reason for doing this.

1) Goebbels knew that a-432 was the ONLY resonant frequency that had perfect harmonic balance.
2) He also new that locked inside the A-432 structure was one of Pandora's boxes.

The math that is evident when tuned to A-432 show what is called "The Plato Code". Just like there are hidden codes written into the bible there are also hidden codes in the 432 matrix. 432 is THE ONLY resonant frequency that is capable of naturally reproducing what is called the "Pythagorean Musical Spiral". Its the same sequence of growth that all life follows. It utilizes the formula of "Phi" also know as the "Golden Mean" and is also found in the "Fibonacci sequence".

The American Federation of Musicians accepted the A440 as standard pitch in 1917. It was then accepted by the U.S. government as its standard in1920. It was not until 1939 that this pitch was accepted internationally and then standardized by the International Organization for Standardization in 1955 to serve as the audio frequency reference for the calibration of pianos, violins, and other musical instruments. Before recent times, a variety of tunings were used. It has been suggested by The Schiller Institute, James Furia and many others that A432 or C256 be the standard. A432 was often used by Classical composers and results in a tuning of the whole number frequencies that are connected to numbers used in the construction of a variety of ancient works and Sacred sites, such as the Great Pyramid of Egypt. The original Stradivarius violin was designed to be tuned to 432 Hz. The archaic Egyptian instruments that have been unearthed, so far, are largely tuned to 432 Hz. In ancient Greece (the school book original place for music) their instruments were predominantly tuned to 432 Hz.

The Shamanic/festival use of a specific series of drums, trumpets and harps in Sumeria, had them all tuned to 432 Hz. In many cultures this tone is used in connection with sacred rituals. In India this tone is called, ‘Sadja – Father of Others’, and the Sitar and Tambura are tuned accordingly. In Sufism it’s said: ‘ the one who knows the secret of this tone, knows the mystery of the Universe.’ (Hazrat Inayat Khan – Music – Geneva 1959). The Om in Buddhism in Tibet is based on this too. The controversy over tuning still rages, with proponents of A432 or C256 citing these as being more natural tunings than the current standard of A440.

432hz vibrates on the principals of the golden mean PHI and unifies the properties of light, time, space, matter, gravity and magnetism with biology, the DNA code and consciousness. 432hz Natural Tuning has profound effects on consciousness and also on the cellular level of our bodies. By retuning musical instruments and using concert pitch at 432 hertz instead of 440 hertz, your atoms and DNA starts to resonate in harmony with the PHI spiral of nature -Brian T Collins

Forest gardening

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_gardening

History

Forest gardens are probably the world's oldest form of land use and most resilient agroecosystem.[1][2] They originated in prehistoric times along jungle-clad river banks and in the wet foothills of monsoon regions. In the gradual process of families improving their immediate environment, useful tree and vine species were identified, protected and improved whilst undesirable species were eliminated. Eventually superior foreign species were selected and incorporated into the gardens.[3]

Forest gardens are still common in the tropics and known by various names such as: home gardens in Kerala in South India, Nepal, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Tanzania; Kandyan forest gardens in Sri Lanka;[4] huertos familiares, the "family orchards" of Mexico; and pekarangan, the gardens of "complete design", in Java.[5] These are also called agroforests and, where the wood components are short statured, the term shrub garden is employed. Forest gardens have been shown to be a significant source of income and food security for local populations.[6]

Robert Hart adapted forest gardening for the UK's temperate climate during the early 1960s. His theories were later developed by Martin Crawford from the Agroforestry Research Trust and various permaculturalists such as Graham Bell, Patrick Whitefield, Dave Jacke and Geoff Lawton.
