Week Four Inquiries - Part 2 - Green Economy

Well, we have people discussing the subject and the market is being driven (by top down or bottom up???) into an almost hyper-active 'greening'. One may find it hard to really say whether this process of 'greening' is genuine or not and how profound and widespread the level of actual ecological and environmental concern truly is. Surely we are 'waking up' to the need to reorganize and reevaluate our obviously misguided and disturbed concept of ourselves and the Earth we live in thus leading to conversations about such topics as Environmental Economics, and Green Economy.

I think we are quite far from our goal of completely renewable and clean technologies and I feel that if we are lucky and courageous and strong, we will survive in such a ways as to pursue these technologies and these economic systems on a global scale. There is a great shifting and re-birthing of awareness on our planet and I look forward to the creative expansion and explosion that arises out of it.

I am gratefully reminded that our outer experiences are very intimately connected to our inner psyche and that any unresolved energy/material will eventually have to be moved through and re-processed in a manner that is reflective of the awareness and willingness of the individual or system or group or universe. In other words, we see in our world what we choose to misunderstand or not-relate with in our own selves. So in the case of our global crisis, we can view it as a random and uncontrollable destruction of life caused by our own ignorance, greed, and unwillingness to cooperate with Nature, OR we can view it as a transformational cleansing process that will lead us through and into a higher experience and understanding of our interrelatedness, mysteriousness, and magnificent elegance. It is a death or a birth...

Hey Brown Rabbit,
Most certainly can hook you up! Just drive to the corner in front of my house, roll down the window and shake the nice man's hand if you don't want to wait for the ice cream man! I am running to catch the train but will check the link you sent me later.

The Candy Man Can!
