Let There Be The Power (for me) To:

-

(Youthful optimism, c. 2010AD)

 

Arm the planet against further damage by greedy ignorant people

Reverse the global damage we've done

Empower a truly United Nations to maintain peaceful, loving, compassionate, biodiverse human relationships between each other and towards all species

Ban pesticides, additives, irradiation, deceitful food labelling, GMO's

Encourage a complete return to organic foods

Ensure the smallest community on earth is heard beside the largest, richest or most 'powerful'

Catalyse international effort to prevent poverty, famine, greed and war

Develop the means to satisfy the residual 'need' for aggression in totally harmless and somehow positive ways

Cancel all '3rd world' debt

Share all wealth so that nobody is in need or reliance

Massively develop education - free of corporate sponsorship - to focus on the very roots of health, nutrition, happiness and spirituality, based on established proven wisdom traditions, not pharmaceutically controlled allopathic medicine

Replace junk food with delicious healthy produce

Reverse engineer runaway corporatism, media, oligarchies and the industrial-military complex

Seal in place self-improving checks against corruption or ego-gain

Target obesity as well as poverty

Eradicate nuclear weapons

Build libraries, schools and colleges worldwide, with a permanent supply of up-to-date books; promote life-long learning

Shrink dependence on private transport and the need for it: pedestrianise: re-forest cities

Respect and protect traditions and ways of indigenous peoples

Stop all destruction of all forests and woodlands: repair immediately

Teach and reward healthy ways, to keep hospitals small

Renaissance (v.) the following: philosophy, right livelihood, meditation, shamanism, sustainable agriculture

Ban further oil drilling and extraction

Grow fuel crops

Build equatorial solar heat concentrators to provide energy for a global hydrogen economy

Replace the electrical grid with a hydrogen network

Cancel nuclear power: reduce power dependency: localise resources to settlements

Tilda Moose's Wall  musings, grumblings, ravings, mumblings 10/12/2023 Time between relapses is increasing. The problem is falling away, but there's still much work to do. I still have a physical addiction to alcohol, and as long as I don't hide away from society with the stigma of it, I can get more and more help. Clearly to me, the fellowship aspect of recovery is likely the required magic. Getting out of this chronic social vacuum is key. Just taking a load of recycling to the dump and clearing up around the house today, has been a good stasis breaker.

This soul has flow...
