Vegan Permaculture - An Introduction. →
fuckyeahpermaculture:
Underpinning all permaculture systems are fundamental ethical values around caring for the earth and its peoples, as well as the fair and just distribution of resources - To me these fit well with the vegan philosophy of compassionate living. But is animal-free permaculture actually possible? Of course not – neither would it be desirable. For example, how would we fence out...

Not Why
By Lily Rothrock
It was nighttime, late in August
The scene, feasibly, the oddest—
Floating orbs, white in hue
Dancing softly, like drops of dew.
On and off, fiercely flashing,
To techno music, loudly blasting.
From a distance, I was beckoned
How compelling not yet reckoned.
Dramatic mountains silhouetted the sky
My curiosity whetted as I drew nigh.
People buzzed, mouths chattered

15 of the Deadliest Corporations
omchomsky:
stay-human:
These corporations, if they were individual human beings, would be locked up for life. Instead, they continue raking in the big bucks. Human rights abuses, murder, war, eco disasters, and animal exploitation keep these evil companies raking in the green. Prepare to be disgusted.
I don’t think the list is in any particular order. Even if you don’t agree with all of...

truth. why can’t everyone just rejoice that our universe is expanding at a rate that allows for matter to clump, eventually forming this little miracle we have called life, then thinking! for heavens sake,...

Ever wonder what made everything go BANG in the beginning? The PBS special on multiverse is for you. Really makes you feel small, and yet so important; the rate of expansion, our distance from the sun, and so many other things had to be just right for earth to exist like it is. Makes me realize how corporations are insignificant and how we need to get our planet back on track because we cannot...

One thing they could do is buy their way into Hollywood. Think about it for a second. Today, Apple could literally buy Time Warner ($38 billion market cap), Viacom ($29 billion), and Dreamworks ($1.6 billion) combined, and still have $30 billion left over. If it waits a few more quarters it could snap up News Corp ($49 billion) as well. Only Disney, which is worth $70 billion,...
