Values Change For Survival; Growing a Better Way of Living
“Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.“ Margaret Mead
We are at a pivotal moment in history – one that dramatically affects our health, freedom, economy, and survival as we are headed now toward the Sixth Extinction Level Event. The outcome will be determined by the choices of each person makes now.
My new Urban Gardens Revolution website shows that an increasing number of people are choosing to be the change they want to see in the world simply by growing their own food! Dr. Vandana Shiva says that the “Urban garden is the greatest revolution!” Jules Dervaes, founder of the Urban Homestead, calls his 1/5 acre city garden on which he grows 6,000 lbs of food each year “The Path to Freedom”.
The Urban Gardens Revolution site links to the free online Food Revolution Summit which takes place April 30-May 8. Dr. Joseph Mercola, who has one of the most popular health sites, says in his article “Reinventing Our Food System, One Small Farm At A Time”:
I cannot encourage you strongly enough to take control of the food that you’re eating. A great way to get started on your own is by sprouting. They may be small, but sprouts are packed with nutrition and best of all, they’re easy and inexpensive to grow.
Dr. Mercola points out the major health risks of GMO foods and asks:
The question is, what kind of food system do YOU want? If every American decided to not eat at a fast food restaurant tomorrow, the entire system would collapse overnight. It doesn’t take an act of Congress to change the food system. All that is required is for each and every person to change their shopping habits to support the system they prefer.
Eric Schlosser’s Fast Food Nation says:
A meaningful change is going to start at the bottom and make its way to the top. It isn’t because there’s a president who has a new point of view, but because there’s a movement that represents that point of view and demands that change come.
