We Can Change the World! It's dying...to get better!

We have the power of the togetherness,
use the screen to connect but in a positive way, to make change, and make our lives better and everyone and everythings life better. It's time!

The truth is it's in everyones backyard...

We must change...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_Running 
In the future all plant life on Earth has become extinct. A few specimens have been preserved in enormous, greenhouse-like geodesic domes attached to a fleet of American Airlines space freighters, currently just outside the orbit of Saturn. Freeman Lowell (Bruce Dern), one of four crewmen aboard the Valley Forge, is the resident botanist and ecologist who carefully preserves a variety of plants for their eventual return to Earth and the reforestation of the planet. Lowell spends most of his time in the domes, both cultivating the crops and attending to the animal life.^[1]

Orders come from Earth to jettison and destroy the domes (with nuclear charges) and return the freighters to commercial service




https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Mimzy

The Last Mimzy is the story of the attempt by humans in the distant future to avert a catastrophic ecological disaster that has destroyed their world. High tech devices disguised as toys are sent back in time to Noah and Emma Wilder, children living in early 21st century Seattle. The "toys" are incomprehensible to Emma (Rhiannon Leigh Wryn) and Noah (Chris O'Neil), except for what appears to be a stuffed rabbit. 





Chicago | We can change the world - Crosby Stills & Nash

http://www.lyricsdepot.com/graham-nash/chicago-we-can-change-the-world.html

Though your brother's bound and gagged
And they've chained him to a chair
Won't you please come to Chicago
Just to sing
In a land that's known as freedom
How can such a thing be fair
Won't you please come to Chicago
For the help we can bring
We can change the world -
Re-arrange the world
It's dying - to get better
Politicians sit yourself down,
There's nothing for you here
Won't you please come to Chicago
For a ride
Don't ask Jack to help you
Cause he'll turn the other ear
Won't you please come to Chicago
Or else join the other side
We can change the world -
Re-arrange the world
It's dying - if you believe in justice
It's dying - and if you believe in freedom
It's dying - let a man live it's own life
It's dying - rules and regulations, who needs them
Open up the door
Somehow people must be free
I hope the day comes soon
Won't you please come to Chicago
Show your face
From the bottom to the ocean
To the mountains of the moon
Won't you please come to Chicago
No one else can take your place
We can change the world -
Re-arrange the world
It's dying - if you believe in justice
It's dying - and if you believe in freedom
It's dying - let a man live it's own life
It's dying - rules and regulations, who needs them
Open up the door
We can change the world

Wanta change the world?

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanta change the world?
There's nothing
To it

There is no
Life I know
To compare with
Pure imagination
Living there
You'll be free
If you truly
Wish to be

Produced by Chipotle, the film was created by Academy Award®–winning Moonbot Studios and is set to a remake of the song “Pure Imagination” from the 1971 film classic “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.” Beautifully performed by Grammy Award®–winning artist Fiona Apple, the song is available for download on iTunes.

Oops, just realized one video didn't show up.  Fixing it now
I always loved that movie Pay It Forward,



Here's the one I missed and it's the key!!!



 it's a wonderful movie that is sad, inspiring and deals with many of todays real life issues.


Surfing Facebook today came across this video about Neknomination a drinking game that is gone viral and resulted in 2 deaths.  http://globalnews.ca/news/1136850/1136850/


As this video points out this type of game has been around a long game and it asks the question what can be done about it. It also points out some great people that flipped this thing on it's head and came up with Raknomination- Random Acts of Kindness.

I hope we see more of this. Please share widely and inspire people to do more RAK-random acts of kindness.

We all know the environment is in trouble, there is terrible poverty and child labour, greedy corporations and so many things that are hurting Mother Earth and all her creations. 

Many of us have been connecting to try and turn things around. One of the projects I have been following and trying to support is Four Years.Go. Out of this they are creating My Stand! The video explains it best but basically it's Facebook with a CAUSE!!


It's so logical right, if we all work together, we can make a huge difference. So let's do it! Let's get connected. This is how we will do it! Check it out!

Have you heard about My Stand!! Watch this Video, this is the future and we need your help!!   http://www.stayclassy.org/events/detail?eid=7898

What a beautiful to gift to give Mother Earth, if EVERYONE could stop and Meditate for 11 seconds, at the 11th minute or ANYTIME that day...or for longer would be even better... 11 minutes....but lets try, TELL EVERYONE!! 11 SECONDS! 









World Without Wars Nov 7 to 13




http://tinawinterlik.blogspot.com/2011/10/111111-occupy-world.html

Hey, here's something CraZy but will totally work. Why not OCCUPY THE WORLD- but just do it thru a simple but UNBELIEVABLY POWERFUL MASS MEDITATION!! 

What if this TRULY HAPPENS!  You know like Earth Hour- Turn your Lights out, but INSTEAD- Everyone turn off - Become Lighthouses of Peace- Wow! What COULD happen???

 (This is my Creative thought of 11.11.11. Well isn't not mine but I have collaged it here with these other great ideas. )

This cRaZy Weather

Well this is the cRaZiEsT Summer I have ever seen. In fact, Where is summer? I actually have a bit of tan, but it's because we went to Summer Live at Stanley Park last week and we were in sun most of that day and well I spend a lot of time walking outdoors, but seriously people are saying "Where did you go to get the tan?"

At the pool the other week I was laughing because we are all sooooooooo white. That's not the point though, the point is it's been darn cold. Yesterday as we went out for groceries, we could actually see our breath. CrAzY!!!  then when we came out from shopping it was warm and humid. So strange!

They said that after this cold wet winter it was going to be A HOT SUMMER! well it hasn't happened.

I don't have to much to complain about. Other people around our province, let alone the world are suffering much worse things. Flooding, Droughts, Fires, Tornadeos, all sorts of awful disasters related to the weather.

So now I ask the question, When are we going to do something about it?

Hmmm! When?
We keep saying the weather is getting weird...but I still see tons of traffic out there.

We keep hearing the polar ice cap is melting, polar bears drowning, and we have had COUNTLESS warnings that the world is in TROUBLE, but when just when and what are we going to do.

You could Join Four Years Go!!

SHOCKING Video about Climate Change-Are You Ready to Change??
From the Grist
http://www.grist.org/climate-change/2011-06-11-the-most-powerful-climate-video-youll-see-all-week
Bill McKibben published a must-read op-ed in The Washington Post last month about the connection between climate change and recent extreme weather events. Now Stephen Thomson http://plomomedia.com/ has combined McKibben's words with striking footage of the events he writes about. The result is a chilling must-see video:

A link between climate change and Joplin tornadoes? Never!

An op-ed by Bill McKibben, author and founder of 350.org, narrated and illustrated by Stephen Thomson of Plomomedia.com

If this video left you with goosebumps, Good! I don't mean that in a bad way, I just mean that now you get it. I had goosebumps...it is awful and scary, but we don't have to live in Fear. We CAN'T, as in my other blogpost, we MUST chose LOVE over Fear.  http://tinawinterlik.blogspot.com/2011/05/2012-revolution-has-begun-lets-meditate.html

We CAN do something about this. Al Gore and so many experts have been telling us, WE HAVE THE SOLUTIONS!

The Issue is that we NEED TO APPLY THEM COLLECTIVELY! 
and not tomorrow but RIGHT NOW!!

Maybe this is some kind of test...did you ever wonder...to see if mankind can pull together...that by working together as one we will be lifted to that higher level where life is peaceful, there is no hunger, poverty, hatred, war....

There is a step you can take RIGHT NOW!! A tiny step that will JOIN US. There is a movement happening called Four Years.Go. The Goal is to have a billion people signed up and engaged in working towards a

A Thriving, Just and Sustainable
Way of Life for All.

Four Years. Go
"Humanity is on an unsustainable path, headed in a direction that no one wants—and there is limited time to turn things around. At the same time, the solutions and technologies to address this crisis already exist. What is missing is the commitment and will to act. FOUR YEARS. GO. is about generating that will."

PLEASE ACT NOW & DECLARE YOUR COMMITMENT RIGHT NOW!!
