Collaborative Blog on our working progress and all things sustainable

Holy shenanigans was this ever a great time. My whole experience taught me that if you wish for something to happen and are willing to keep trying then it can happen. To start I never thought that I would be able to make it to another country and help at a festival that I believed in... yet somehow the pieces fell into place.

Hola mis amigos.

Yo hablo español pequeño.     ..un dia...

Www.geoparadise.org has changed my life. This organization has helped lift the veil off my eyes exposing alternative life views. This has given me direction and priorities in life. We are all powerful beings holding on to bicycle handles taken on a roller coaster ride.

As usual, TED is a great source of inspiration for GeoParadise. We share here Rachel Botsman´s talk, which we really liked, about the dramatic increase in collaborative behaviors in different bits of our lives. We found it very encouraging regarding the future of human kind and planet Earth and opens a whole array of possibilities for GeoParadise projects.

Have a look and enjoy witnessing the times of change we are living through these days.

Greetings and salutations! i would like to thank all those that came out and made our experience all that it was and continues to be, Namaste~.  my adventure with the geocrew began in july in Pennsylvania, usa. i received a small flyer on the windshield of the vehicle i was traveling in at a gathering there. it was simply a small pre-flyer for something my associates paid no attention. after reviewing this advertisment i came to the conclusion that this was something i would much like to be a part of. the flyer spoke of leaving a positive impact on the environment while "doing what we do!"

That was enough for me...

Recent advances in cellular science are heralding an important evolutionary turning point. For almost fifty years we have held the illusion that our health and fate were pre-programmed in our genes, a concept referred to as genetic determinacy.

The Round House

Tucked away in a valley in south-west Wales, lies Tony Wrenches round house, Built 10 years ago using wood from his own forest with cob walls and a grass roof, its a real gem and along with his book on the construction techniques a lovely example for anyone planning to self-build a sustainable home. Unfortunately it didn’t have planning permission and he has been in a continuous struggle with the authorities, facing the threat of demolition. Britain has the lowest proportion of self-built home...

In Paul Stamets book Growing Gourmet & Medicinal Mushrooms, he discusses interesting uses of mycelium, from eating through to pretty much everything to do with the planet.
Here’s one of our favourite, mycelium does marvellous things with petrocarbon pollution. In Bellingham piles of toxic soil were treated by remediation scientists. A number of treatments were used on different piles; enzyme/chemical, mushroom inoculate, and bacterial treatments, for instance. Four weeks later the black tarps were pulled back and five piles were dead ... but not the Oyster mushrooms. The mushrooms grew happily then, after being exposed, died of old age and began to rot, drawing flies that created larvae. With the maggots came birds, and with the birds, seeds and droppings.
