TREEEEES!!!!!
Earth Rising is about to do our first re afforestation project on about >3 acres. Converting a spot in the middle of industrial Agriculture to a mixed hardwood forest. Our hope is to make this a yearly tradition so that we can bring the forest back. It’s ultimately essential for our survival on several levels. As of now we’re paying for the first 200 trees out of pocket, if anyone...
Eight Principles of Deep Ecology
Based on the principles written by Arne Naess and George Sessions:
The well-being and flourishing of human and non-human life on Earth have value in themselves. These values are independent of the usefulness of the non-human world for human purposes.
Richness and diversity of life forms contribute to the realization of these values and are also values in themselves.

Ohio issue 2
If you happen to be voting in Ohio today please be aware of issue 2. I just got back from the polls and the language for 2 is very misleading. Issue 2 does NOT insure humane treatment of animals.

Some stuff
This was in response to someones question.

This will be used not so much for generating business, but more so for giving us a way to spread the word about permaculture to more people around the world. I plan on using this avenue as a way to publish thoughts and ideas about sustainable living, little by...
