Please read the Indigenous elders statement http://caretakersofmotherearth.com/. If you find resonance, consider signing, asking your own questions, and joining us with good minds and prayer for the healing of life on Earth.<br /><br /> “The longest road you will ever have to walk is the sacred journey from your head to your heart.” Chief Phil Lane Jr. Ihanktonwan Dakota and Chickasaw Nations<br /><br /> Chief Arvol Looking Horse, 19th Generation Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe and Spiritual Leader of the Great Sioux Nation and his wife Paula Horne present council statement on Fukushima at the Tillman Chapel at the United Nations headquarters in New York City.<br /><br /> Our individual and collective humanity is a powerful force for life on Earth. It is the difference between life and death of all creation.<br /><br /> Indigenous Elders and Medicine Peoples of North and South America have gathered for the first time releasing a unified statement and calling to the world.<br /><br /> After 4 days in sacred ceremony, they are asking the global community to wake up and move towards becoming a coherent body that is vested in planetary health, in creating a world where our actions enable our children and our children’s children to live a life with sunlight, fresh foods, air, clean water, butterflies, fish, buffalo and all of the beautiful life around us. They are taking their statement to the UN to garner immediate support for moral collective action on Fukushima’s vulnerable nuclear power plant’s condition. Highlighting the undeniable compounding and cumulative devastation and the moral responsibilities to ensure life for all future generations.Indigenous Environmental Networkhttp://www.ienearth.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704141664158995382.post-47130337744677673502013-08-12T03:40:29.362-07:002013-08-12T03:40:29.362-07:00You can join our End Ecocide Director Prisca in a ...You can join our End Ecocide Director Prisca in a Worldwide Youth Leader webcast today for the UN DAY OF YOUTH, the time: 8 PM CET.<br /><br />Link: http://www.youth-leader.org/webcast/<br /><br />The purpose of this global gathering is knowledge and spirit transfer for uplifting your potential for change.

Higgins and I met in 2009 on the United Nations Climate Express train on our way to Copenhagen for COP15. At the time, she was campaigning for a Declaration of Planetary Rights announced by the Bolivian delegation at the Conference of the Parties and I was shooting a documentary. At the conference, the idea of setting legal boundaries to halt ecocide, or the destruction of the planet, began to percolate. The next year, in March 2010, Higgins proposed to the United Nations that ecocide be declared the Fifth “Crime Against Peace.” Drawing comparisons between slavery, genocide and the destruction of the planet, Higgins emphasizes that civilization is on the cusp of a massive paradigm shift that parallels the abolition of slavery. I spoke with Higgins recently about the principles behind the proposed law and how it could change the trajectory of human history and our environment.

Many of ...Regenerating America's Legacy Cities<br /><br />Many of America's legacy cities -- older industrial metropolitan areas facing manufacturing decline and population loss -- have had a difficult time bouncing back. But the key to revitalization for Baltimore, St. Louis, Camden, N.J., Youngstown, Ohio or Flint, Michigan, is to take stock of the assets right at their doorstep, such as downtowns, parks, transit systems, and academic and cultural institutions. That's the message of Regenerating America’s Legacy Cities, an analysis of 18 cities by Alan Mallach and Lavea Brachman, who advocate step-by-step “strategic incrementalism” as a path to economic development, rather than the silver-bullet approach of signature architecture, a sports stadium or other megaprojects.<br /> <br />In preparing the Lincoln Institute's latest Policy Focus Report, Mallach and Brachman, who are both nonresident fellows at The Brookings Institution, examined cities in New England, the Mid-Atlantic, the South, and the Midwest, that had a population of at least 50,000 in 2010, and a loss of at least 20 percent from peak population. They concluded that a renewed competitive advantage, which will enable legacy cities to build new economic engines and draw new populations, can come from leveraging longstanding assets such as downtown employment bases, stable neighborhoods, multimodal transportation networks, colleges and universities, local businesses, historic buildings and areas, and arts, cultural, and entertainment facilities.<br /> <br />“Intentional strategies are needed to unlock the potential of a city’s assets to bring about sustainable regeneration,” the authors write. Making progress “begins with leaders sharing a vision of the city’s future and then making incremental, tactical decisions that will transform the status quo, while avoiding grandiose and unrealistic plans.”<br /><br />....This the reason, Alan Mallach and Lavea Brachman, for the "Theory of Iceality on Environmental Arts" !!<br /><br />http://www.lincolninst.edu/news-events/at-lincoln-house-blogAmbassador Renatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17455376481651823350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704141664158995382.post-70795503145741047052013-04-23T04:14:31.429-07:002013-04-23T04:14:31.429-07:00In Ohio, the 'ARK in Berea'
