by on Jan 28, 2012

If you're going to sin, sin vigorously'. If we are tempted to do something 'wrong', we should do so whole-heartedly - in this way we more quickly learn what we need to learn.

Melancholia the Film – and Psychological Responses to Planetary Crisis.

by on Jan 8, 2012

As I watched the film it occurred to me that the crisis I was seeing on the screen and in particular the unique ways that each of the central characters related to it provided a not-so-metaphorical template for the ecological mega-crisis of our own times, as well as our individual emotional responses

Scrambling for a new way to live. Carving trees with tattoos and sewing peacock feathers onto our clothes… spiritual soldiers renaming the birds and peering deep into the ocean to see where all the fish have gone. Plastic floats upon the ocean water... it does not sink, so there is still a chance for us to see it... collect and gather what we have forsaken and lost.

Look Who Supports Boulder’s 2B & 2C

by on Oct 24, 2011

There are many reasons why I'm voting yes on 2B & 2C. I could talk about how I don't like that a corporation (a monopoly, at that) has 100% control of a basic public service. I could talk about how Xcel has raised my electricity rates by 20% over the past few years. Or I could go on about how citizens have absolutely no say in what Xcel does, where their energy comes from, and how much they charge because the Public Utilities Commission isn't elected by voters. But, instead, the most basic reason why I'm voting yes on 2B & 2C is because it's just the right thing to do for our community. And here's why.

Van Jones Sums Up Boulder Energy Debate

by on Oct 10, 2011

Van Jones, the former White House Special Advisor for Green Jobs, discusses his support for ballot measures 2B & 2C in Boulder. Measures 2B & 2C give the city the authority to investigate the feasibility of creating a municipal power utility. 29 cities in Colorado (Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Longmont, etc) and thousands across the country already run municipal power utilities. 2B & 2C have been endorsed by the Daily Camera and the Boulder Weekly. For more information and to see the list of thousands of local businesses and citizen endorsers, check out http://www.RenewablesYes.org. Van Jones is the founder of the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, Green For All, and was named a "Hero of the Environment" by Time magazine one of the "12 Most Creative Minds of 2008" by Fast Company.

Horizon Milk & Silk Soy: 20 Reasons to Ride the White Wave into Dean Foods Green. ~ Tara DeAngelis

by on Oct 6, 2011

As a reader of elephant journal, it is likely you have purchased Horizon Organic Milk, or Silk soy milk recently. Who knew they were owned by the same company, White Wave, who is now owned by Dean Foods? I sure didn’t.Even though food companies like Dean Foods are acquiring companies demonstrating Right-Livelihood, like White Wave, it is still disturbing that the industry is moving closer and closer to being monopolized.The loss of integrity in the organic food industry, along with Monsanto's rising is a eminent crisis that will affect our generation very soon.

Where so many millions of bugs, foxes, bears, humans and powerful beasts have lain down on the earth and died, it will be hard to tell what was once bone, from the scraps of our everyday. What does the awesome task of reconciling our minds, hearts and souls with what we have built mean for those of us still in love?
