PLANETARY CRIMINALITY AGAINST OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR FUTURE !

There is one thing every and each one of the humans, living on that planet, needs to understand. There are no country borders, no differences betwen cultures or social structures and even less political interests existing for when we are thinking and talking about the long term survival of humans on that planet. This planet is incredibly small and we are all incredibly lucky to live here for such a long time, without being wiped out from the planet's surface already. The ressources are limited , talking not only about oil and water but all the ressources of that little planet. Now think about how we are dealing with those. Not only everyone wants a car, or even car collections, and a separate house, filled with gadgets and all sorts of comfort, and ideally an airplane with a backup helicopter, just near the boat.. But we are also tolerating , for over a hundred of years now, a mass destruction of highly valuable ressources (geological, energetical, natural and human resources

The Man, his life and the pope

There are always ups and downs, no matter which job or status you have. A good story I learned which helps me understand where I am in life when it becomes "difficult" A man was always unhappy with his life and couldn't find the way out, so he went to the pope to ask for advise. -man: could you please help me to get my life happy again. my wife is always nagging on me, kids scream around and do not respect what i tell them. money is just enough to buy food and clothes.. i dont want to live like this.. -pope: well, I listen to gods will and suggest you to go and buy a dog. -man: are you sure? -pope: of course, its gods voice, so go and buy a dog. Man buys a dog and comes back in a month. -man: listen pope, i deeply respect you and your wisdom but i think something went wrong. Wife nags even more now as dog is barking and brings dirt into the house. In addition we have to feed him so we have less to eat ourselves.. kids are only playing with the dog and I am worried he wi

AIR

Air sounds simple but it isn't really. To find good air today is a sort of a problem Rules are simple: stay away from industrial or dusty areas and keep the air humidity around you between 50% and 60% Air temperature in the area should drop down below 0 degrees C at least once a year. Keep plastics and foams out and away of your house (softmakers (plasticizers) in plastics and other chemicals are pure poison) ! Ventilate your house/shelter fully at least once a day Wet-clean your house at least once a week Apply mechanical filtering through tissue or ceramics where possible to keep micro-particle quantities, suspended in the air, down. With the above rules folowed, you should have an acceptable air quality in the house. Some dust pre-filters are strongly suggested if proximity to big cities or other dusty areas, like deserts or construction sites, is unavoidable. Below there are some simple and self-explaining steps to how to do an improvised face mask (dust-mask or wear

WATER

Water is as important as the air (we all know, right? 45-75 percent of our body is water) Mostly people already know where to get water from and how to treat it. I will add few methods here which might be less known. From the air (basically producing/collecting water vapor) - Air is almost always carrying water vapor. To collect it one would need a surface which is cooler as the surrounding air, to condense the water. In some cases fine meshes (or any other cold material/powder with a big surface) which can catch the water droplets from the saturated air (keep in mind that this water would also contain most of the dust and chemicals from that air too..) One could create water vapor from the salt water - through evaporation or to get the salts out and apply reverse-osmosis. Water could be extracted from the ground - mostly on the lower end of the hills and mountains (either collecting directly or through evaporation) Some layers of the earth are not letting the water through and a

FIRE/HEAT

One can get it through: - Friction (examples: fire strikers, stick and hole, cotton with wood cole, ) - Compression (examples: fire piston, forged iron) - Concentrating/focusing of sunlight in one point (examples: using lenses, mirrors, polished spoons, transparent plastic bags filled with clear water and shaped into lens form) - Chemical reactions (examples: potassium permanganate and glycerine, mineral oils on rigs through polymerization and many others which produce enough heat to start a fire . Some reactions expand explosively, stay ready and protected.

HOME

Keep it as such, for yourself and your close ones. Only bring people, who you know very well for years, to your home, who you trust, who never left you down and who were there for you even when the situation was bad for everyone. In short only let very good friends access your home. Find other places outside to meet all the rest of people you might meet in your life. Home is your life, ideally you have 3 places where you feel safe and well, where you feel home. Those places shall be located in -proximity to water -high grounds -good, rich earth (i.e. forests or other areas rich in life) Ideally you manage to rotate your base between those 3 places through a year. the 4th ,and the most solid, home is inside you, protect it well, you need to be able to feel well inside yourself and need to be able to create a home base on your own, without help, no matter where life might bring you to.

BE READY AT ALL TIMES

Think about what you really need in your life. Think about what skills it requires to get what you need or wish to achieve. Aquire those skills and be patient practicing them. At first, learn how to do it well, then increase speed. Often you will find that all you need is a shelter, a capability to create fire/heat and a capability to get enough water, along with balanced food. Add a couple of good friends to it and you are set, you would normally realize that you actually are happy. Make sure you carry a minimal set of those tools, which you need to create the minimal of the above, at all times. (I will add a short list of what I figured out at some point) Keep in mind, one of your most useful instruments is your body (aside of the brain :)) Excercise with it every day, minimum 3 different muscle groups every morning, it sounds heavier as it actually is and will take you only 15-20 minutes every morning but it will give you much more in return.

COMPLETE ANY WORK-TYPE YOU DO WITH MAXIMUM QUALITY

Humans are lazy by nature, this is coming from the animal world and serves to save the energy where possible. Only difference to the pure nature is that humans are not obliged anymore to do a lot of work to cover their basic needs.. The result is that we find ourselves very often telling "I think its enough work I invested in that" and mostly this decision is not based on how good that works quality is related to the average level of quality but instead by the value we imagine our time is worth against the value of the same time we xould do something nice and relaxing :) Well unfortunately the approach from above is mostly wrong... It pays itself off through time to do things with the highest level of quality from the start because you eliminate the need of re-doing the same work again later in time and, in the same time, increasing the level of your skills so that next time you would require less time to reach that quality, just do it, you will see yourself at some point, i

KEEP YOUR EYES AND THOUGHTS WHERE YOU ARE

Basically its about being with your mind where you are with your body. Realising with all your senses what is happening around you right now and then only move to the next step. Once you reach that happening at all times you can start assigning some thoughts/ressources to think through the next steps in advance. It sounds and is easy but requires a lot of focusing, self-awareness and concentration at the beginning.
