@teamhumanity How do you propose to do that? And this isn’t about *every*thing that needs to be done, just part of it. Namely that depending on resources from 1500+ miles away is a really bad system, and this talks about a possible replacement or part of a replacement for that particular system.
Obviously we do also need a superior moral framework than the one we have now, with less greed, less materialism, etc.

They mention about not taking resources from “future generations” but that’s not all the problem. Even if we didn’t, the future generations’ use of them would still mean those resources would deplete anyway if they are of the nonrenewable, nonrecyclable kind. (I.e. oil, etc.)
We need to get to a system that doesn’t need nonrenewable and nonrecyclable resources. Even if it means big, big change. Big change… big change……….

How come that there isn’t any other way to farm animals without such amounts of abuse?

Big TAX Scam to UN ,Banks & Al Gore = the new derivatives

Cont. And these are kid, are they heading home to work on their garden or are they heading to burger king and then to a club or a movie? Do these people have solar or wind power for there house? Or are they like Al Gore and telling you what to to? The dervaes and gardengirl are doing what they preach and i’m with them.
These whole homesteading thing can get you to almost 100% self sufichant, So how far are you willing to go?? WTW or STFU!
July 27th, 2010 at 7:53 am
you had me intill you started blaming livestock for the green house gas. You know, how far are you willing to go? These people are wearing clothes that was probable made in some sweet shop in China that toke gallons of fossil fuel and many miles to get on there backs, when i can grow my own cotton to make my own clothes(can, didn’t say i do). Are they riding cars or walking to where they need to go?

There are two choices. Keep doing what we are doing and then watch the crash… Or start doing something different that is more sustainable and survive the crash of the rest of them.

i still want my bananas…
July 27th, 2010 at 11:24 am
I think that’s what they’re called, but I’ve never seen one.
July 27th, 2010 at 12:13 pm
I think its house of mud. Like a cob. Is it called that way.??
July 27th, 2010 at 12:27 pm
Great vid folks. what was that guy doing towards the end? patting that wall of dirt?
July 27th, 2010 at 1:20 pm
why don’t you explain to me what is real food?
July 27th, 2010 at 2:12 pm
For me, it is sort of funny to watch people in a big city talk about how a ‘REAl’ fruit tastes sooooooo good. It’s just about as funny to see a back yard fool talk about real food. I like the idea, but you guys are about 100 years too late and if you don’t like that idea, you are probably trying to protect your own stupidity…

Yes. Nothing grows in snow, that is why you can conserve food for the winter, and you do not need to hunt.
My grandparents, for example, conserve food in jars in the basement. That is how they make it through winters.
They live in the middle of nowhere, they live in the “Far Far Away”.
They do not have electric trains or sailboats there. They barely have some cars in the village, and they have survived.
No one said that it’s an easy lifestyle, but it is possible and sustainable.=)

I am sure that Peak Oil is also a scam. Lol
