all my esteemed readers, I wish a happy new year in a successful new year 2010. May you be blessed with health, happiness and long life! I wish our politicians that they can forget their egos, the lobbyists who besieged the ministries like a swarm of rats, a corpse, come into their fat asses and finally sanity! Get your act on the belt and save our world to live for our children and grandchildren's sake, have a fucking right to be in a clean and healthy environment!

Can U Cookie Cut Brownies
Who actually says, except economists and economists that the world at the mercy of corporations do? Why a business is only successful if it continues to grow, although everyone knows, or could know that endless growth is not at all possible, for obvious reasons? Nevertheless, corporations are only "profitable" as they grow. Is that not because of marketing, or other measures, then the competitors will be bought to take over their children. They grow and expand from more accessible and perish. Then connect to other companies and do exactly the same mistakes because nobody is willing to learn from past mistakes. At the universities is still the Maehr of limitless economic growth, marketing and market penetration taught, because they seem to still have not realized that there must be an economy to the growth illusion.
But where will the ideas come from, if each group is only concerned about expansion? Will it really easy the whole economy go to the wall, if you completely by surprise, and above all is suddenly finds that there is no more oil? Why is still hell-bent on globalized, although it was recognized long ago that this will lead the world into the abyss? The only winners here are the multinational corporations that consider both the resources as their private property, and the human resource regarded as an arbitrarily manipulable mass that has an existence only by permission, because they are needed as workers, or not at will and therefore can be geheuert and fired!
course still go all assume that corporations are required to produce all kinds of goods in large quantities and sell them to consumers cheaply. Finally, we learned it so and it is so used. The companies produce goods they sell "cheap" without the consequences of their production and the products themselves are responsible. That is, the corporations pull plug in the purchase price, from the cost of raw materials and labor wages and distribute the profit to the management and shareholders. The consumer is pleased about an alleged bargain and if at some point (sooner rather than later, for a durable product can not be in the interests of the corporations if - as we now know - to ever-increasing sales figures are dependent) breaks down, or simply comes only out of fashion, it flies in the trash. Whether it's here now rotted away, or - because it is made of plastic - and damages the environment, animals devoured, responsible for a painful death is interested no one. Least of all the managers of the group, from its factory buildings, it came from. If it's sold at first, is also the responsibility for the impact on the environment and flora and fauna are no longer with the group. In any case, according to the companies! The result can be seen for several years and decades increasingly evident everywhere. Huge, ever-growing landfills that threaten groundwater (the insanely expensive measures that are necessary to seal such a landfill and to prevent the emerging toxins into groundwater take, not the companies that produced these products. borne by the taxpayers, regardless of whether he has bought the products and / or used). The companies also deliver poisons, fertilizers, insecticides, pesticides, herbicides and fungicides, so that industrial agriculture may treat the crops in the fields so that they really need not to the extent, if not the seed, from the groups would (because they sprayed the fields and fields without mercy and without rhyme or reason with chemicals, toxins enter the course in the environment, into the groundwater and into the air and endanger humans, nature and animal).
But because it's not all, is a tremendous use of energy and heavy equipment necessary to thrive because without this no longer use the unit types in the fields. Therefore, the companies also strive for the patenting of seeds and living organisms (even today there are only domestic animals such as pigs, cattle and sheep, but soon maybe people already?), so that they could exercise control over the people and put the government under pressure. All about the filthy lucre's sake! So the oil resources are exploited, oppressed countries and peoples, extorted and abused. The energy companies emphasize fabulous profits and try to develop alternative energy sources to hinder. Thus, while remains of CO2 is pumped into the air, because you look at the burning of fossil fuels in large centralized power plants as the only means of energy production, our climate is going to the dogs, dried up all the States and drink groups of islands and coastal areas under the rising sea off!
These are just a few examples of that mean that capitalism, the economy and the corporations for this world and mankind, what they have consequences that we are now trying to dominate, while the perpetrators are not used for the sequences ( at least not within reasonable limits), nor can anyone to stop them, our world by their greed to give completely the rest!
Which approach will find the principles of permaculture? Now, it's actually quite simple and is called "self control"! However, this is not a thing that pushes to the markets today ide dominant large corporations to listen. For self-limiting means to consciously avoid constant growth and modesty lay at the day. This can only work if you create the corporations shackles that prevent them to do business exclusively for their own good. These bonds, the state must impose the conglomerates, which is not to be expected. Because politics and economics are now so interrelated that independent decisions are expected by the policy in favor of the people!
We see it abundantly clear that it requires enormous pressure from citizens to force the policy to an action that the needs of the environment and human exposure and not solely on the Needs of economic interest groups.
A first step would be the introduction of closed loop systems in the economy and their production processes, which are written to them to preserve the resources and resources already consumed by recycling back to win and that is 100%. At the same time it is necessary to make production processes so that there are no negative effects on the environment! If such action by the legislature threatens the economy responds in most cases very quickly with a "voluntary agreement" (which is nothing more than an attempt to avoid legal requirements from the outset and then not to their own "voluntary commitments" keep!) at hand.
We as consumers to corporations thereby cause damage by not buying from them. Let us, instead of in the supermarket, the organic farmers in the area and shower us with food, of which we know they are not burdened with genetic engineering. We refuse to McDoof or to choke king to go there and devour hamburgers that come from animals that are kept on pastures that have been obtained by burning the rain forest! We drive small cars when it already needs to be. Who thresh as a technical extension of his penis a Porsche Cayenne S / Turbo to the bakery or vending needs, is a poor sausage. But only to compensate for the declining power, there are certainly other options than to burn 30 liters of Super Plus per 100 kilometers! We need to rethink
and we must do our opinions. We have to shop there, where we can be sure that the products we buy and consume are produced ecologically sustainable. Quality has its price, a clean and healthy natural environment - they are priceless! We have to stop to buy this whole damn plastic crap that is being offered. The coronation of the plastic bottles in which beverages are sold and to which one does pledge to them a "recycling" to feed. This recycling is exhausted then a melting of the plastic bottles and their incorporation in the manufacture of any of inferior products. We must set the policy under pressure until they can not help but to fulfill the will of the people!
No one has the right to plunder the resources of the earth and pocket the profits for it, but imposing the protection of our livelihoods, the cost of his actions to the public. Privatize profits and socialize losses and costs, that is not in the sense of a just social order. It's wrong that we can not accept! We must deny this consumer society!
Everybody can contribute by itself in everything he does, or buy, consider whether and to what extent that is ecologically sound. Everyone needs to think about how we can preserve our environment. For each of us has his personal conduct and personal responsibility for the influence he exerts on his environment and nature!
