Those Who Control Energy Control the World



Here's a Segment from a Documentary shot in the early 90's about Global Conspiracies. The big difference between then and now is the Internet. If someone does invent a car that runs on water and they want everyone to know about it they can post the plans on how to build this water powered car online for everyone to see.

If someone reinvents Tesla's "wireless electricity" that's FREE to all, they can post the documentation on the Internet.

Do any of you have a Lean Mean Green invention you care to share ?

We think a Salt water powered car would be best considering global warming / climate change and all that extra sea water we are going to have readily available.

In this episode of the Running Raw Project: Tim VanOrden speaking at Leaf Cuisine in Culver City, CA, talks about how the cooking of carbohydrates affects how the body stores fat. He has a great story about pigs and farmers.

Green Funerals



Changing perceptions on death, GreenSprings Eco-Cemetery in Newfield, NY discovers how green burial is helping to protect and preserve the environment.

What is a green burial?

Simple and natural. Green burial, or natural burial, ensure the burial site remains as natural as possible in all respects. Interment of the bodies is done in a bio-degradable casket, shroud, or a favorite blanket. No embalming fluid, no concrete vaults.

Why have a green burial?

It is clear that nature has intended that our bodies be reunited with the earth. All organisms that have lived, have died and returned to the soil...only to be recycled into new life. Constant microbial activity in the soil breaks everything down. Nature creates no waste. Everything is recycled.

In keeping with your personal values, a natural burial site for you, family, even pets, promotes growth of native trees, shrubs and wildflowers, in turn bringing birds and other wildlife to the area. Water is not wasted, nor are pesticides and herbicides used in attempts to control nature. Instead, a green cemetery allows nature take it's course. Planting native trees, shrubs and flowers in your loved one's honor promotes habitat restoration. To encourage land preservation, a green cemetery grants a conservation easement for the burial site.
