Children can build peace on earth by hand, even in AFRICA Posted on Dec 14 2006 at 2:48am by If only I had a TV, but I do have great solutions for Africa. As with the rest of the world's global crisis, it is now crucial that we act personally, locally and globally. To this end, I have traveled around the globe twice searching out solutions to many of our current problems; the intricate woven tapestry of globalization as it sows and harvests a suicidal path for humankind... That is the best globalization offers as we are seeing.
Nature's offering and outcome is abundance and beauty and the children of Africa deserve our support to realize their own homes, food, water, waste treatement and energy needs being met. It can be simple, not easy, but very simple. Permaculture answers this harmonious evolution. See Greening the Desert, a five-minute video that shows how a salt-ridden Jordan desert grew a lush fruit forest and figs were growing where the experts said it was impossible.
Well, I know Africa could be better and I know it will be as soon as we operate as a global family and bring the real solutions, the holistic designs that give those children a vision, and actions they can take to be empowered themselves. They can build their own schools and homes and their community Spirit by using a method called Earth Art & Architecture. It is an easy and beautiful, energy efficient and fun way to build. It's good work, hard, but not when you have friends building together. Even enemies become friends when working with the earth in this way, honoring her gift to us changes us and molds us as we build with her soil in our hands.
See KLARITY.org for photos of these awesome dome and vault structures that withstand many disasters like they were nothing at all.
I am a 42-year-old woman and I have helped building 16 projects since 1994; I have taught 1,000 people, including 600 children, how it is done in clay models; the home, the whole town using permaculture ethics and principles. This is nature's wisdom bringing humankind into harmony with the land and each other.
Please bring this to Africa.
It is time for real solutions to be known. Now is our time. I speak for my global family when I praise us all as we awaken to this opportunity to reclaim our humanity, together; it is our world too. Game on!
