We live in exciting and hopeful times. More and more people are beginning to challenge the status quo and care about creating a better world for future generations. We are beginning to understand that change won’t come about by putting all faith on political leaders, but by cultivating and exerting our own power to steer society in a new direction by living differently.

Though understandably enough, many of us are angry. Angry at authorities who continually push for an agenda that destroys the earth and causes suffering across the globe. Angry at the lies we have been fed; designed to make us apathetic to injustice and give our power away.

Has our knowledge put us back to sleep?

We march the streets, we shout out against injustice on social media, we follow and scrutinize politicians’ every move… but sometimes at the expense of remembering the most important factor in creating the change we say we want. Could it be that simply staying updated with world events or the latest political scandal isn’t exactly the best way to move humanity forward? Are we losing sight of the fundamentals that would allow us to create substantial change in the world?

As much as it is important to have knowledge of the societal problems we face, sometimes keeping our noses in nothing BUT the problem can paralyze us and blind us to the many solutions we could build upon. Maybe “those in power” actually don’t mind if we are too busy pointing fingers at them and arguing amongst each other about who’s more “awake”… as long as we forget all about the crucial piece of the puzzle discussed in the following video.

This video I created for Uplifted Life serves as a reminder for us all activists and changemakers to keep our eyes on the path and be more effective in our mission of making the world a better place. Share your thoughts!

The post A Crucial Reminder To All Activists & Changemakers appeared first on We Are Change.

Why is there so much talk about change, but so little change in comparison? What are we missing here? Is it really up to authorities, experts and professionals to figure out this whole “changing the world” thing? Actually, the world is full of those, and look where we are at. We still have war, poverty, greed, oppression, environmental destruction, and the the list goes on and on. The problems of this world might be complex, but what if the formula for world change is much simpler than we think?

The team behind WeCO asked themselves these same questions, and absolutely NAILED the answer in this powerful video. This perspective is greatly needed in this movement for truth and freedom. And the solution it provides is what I believe will drive humanity forward and allow each and everyone of us to be the change we have been conceptualizing about for all these years.

We keep talking about wanting to “take down the elite”… but if only we knew what would, we’d be doing things drastically differently.

Share this far and wide if you agree that this is the next step in human evolution!

The post The Elite’s Biggest Fear: The Formula For World Change appeared first on We Are Change.

One of the biggest scandals in the United Kingdom’s history is getting ready to explode right now. Videos of two children sharing their experiences of ongoing sexual abuse and the ritual killing of babies by a sophisticated group of pedophiles are going viral all over the world. The reported abusers include the children’s father, their school teachers, the UK’s social services, members of the police, and many more. All members of this group are still at large and a massive media cover-up is under way.

The reality of organized satanism and pedophile rings has been exposed for decades by survivors and whistleblowers, such as by former FBI Chief Ted Gunderson. A particular case of this horrific abuse has recently been exposed by 2 victims themselves, 8-year old Gabriel and 9-year old Alisa.

Cover-Up Of Organized Ritual Abuse Cult In Hampstead

“My dad lies to my mum. He doesn’t only see us on Saturdays. He sees us every single day in school where they do sex to us.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6uO7IfypnI

That is what Alisa said about her British father after revealing how both herself and her brother Gabriel were being sexually abused from an early age. Their Russian mother had a history of domestic violence with him that included 5 police call-outs and 3 filed reports. But she never expected both children to identify him as the leader of a child abuse cult, in which they were being regularly abused and forced to partake in ritual sacrifices in their school and church.

The mother had long noticed signs of unhappiness, suppressed anger and stress in her children but never suspected the underlying cause. It is only in August 2014 that both children told the truth to their mother and her partner, after they both noticed disturbingly sexual and aggressive behavior in the children.

The mother reported the crimes to Barnet Police on the 5th of September 2014 and medical examinations of both children confirmed sexual abuse and violence. A week after the crime had been reported, the children were taken into “protective” custody and 6 days later, for some unknown reasons, retracted their allegations.

Despite the physical evidence of abuse, the police closed the case as “no crime confirmed.” Authorities will not release the children to their mother or grandparents, yet they increased the amount of visits allowed by the father – despite the children claiming that the father repeatedly threatened to kill them if they ever spoke out.

Authorities Covering Up The Facts?

According to the children, the police and child services are in on it, which explains why, in their own words, “The police are not helping.” 

Apparently, the explanation provided by authorities was that the children made their story up from the film “The Mask of Zorro.” This film has allegedly been used in another case to disprove children’s accusations of abuse. Private meetings between local authorities and the presiding judge are already taking place behind the mother’s back, suggesting a possible ulterior agenda is under way. A 12-day fact finding hearing is scheduled to start on February 16th at the Royal Courts of Justice in London – in the secrecy of family courts – without the general public or any media.

The mother has since released scores of names, addresses, phone numbers and concrete details of those supposedly involved. Click HERE for an in-depth summary of what has been discovered so far.

Are The Children Telling The Truth?

Full-Length Video of The Children Describing The Cult’s Activities and Identifying Members [Intro Featuring former FBI Chief Ted Gunderson]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMJo67g2jeo

There is a lot of debate about whether or not this whole story is a fabrication. However, hearing the children describe their experiences on video convinced us of the validity of their claims.

Here’s why:

The precise depiction of their experiences, the way they never hesitated when asked about further details, how they took initiative in providing information and personal thoughts without constantly needing questions to initiate responses, and the way they would unexpectedly bring up additional details and take charge of the conversation – proves to us that they were actively referring to their own memories. Not to mention their explicitly detailed knowledge of the existence of such perverted acts at a very young age…

Some say that if it was true, the children would sound more traumatized. However, they said themselves that they have grown used to it. We have also listened to other interviews of ritual abuse victims stating that as children, they believed it was “normal” and happened in “every family” because it is all they ever knew. That being said, it is possible to become desensitized to violence and abuse.

Words From The Mother & A Friend

“I believe that most of the information my children have revealed is true. There is no way a child could create a story like that, with so many intricate details… It is out of the question that Mr Christie or me would coach the children to say things like that. Neither of us would ever put the children through this for whatever reason, and create such unbelievable situation for ourselves. Even supposedly we coached them to say this, the children of that age could not possibly repeat the same story all over again to the different adults in different circumstances without hesitation or changing the details. Although we know that they have retracted their statements, the children still, even now keep coming back to the same story and the details, while in the foster care to the degree that it became unbearable for their caretaker Carol to look after them. She no longer wants to do this.”

Here is a comment found in a forum from a friend of hers:

We Can Help!

The mother and her supporters are in danger of being held in contempt of court with these videos going viral and people spreading this information to press outlets.

They need our support as they begin the court proceedings on Monday February 16 with enough signatures on the following petition demanding the release of the children to their family again.

Will you take a moment and sign this petition to show the courts that the world is standing behind these children?

UPDATES:

1. COVER-UPS as Evidence and Proof of the Veracity of what the Children are Saying
2. Reddit: Update on Whistleblower (Hampstead, UK) Paedophile Victims. Lots Of New Info. I Think This Story Can Become Huge.

Ritual abuse is a secret epidemic and one that reaches the highest levels of government and affluence. What will happen to these children and all the other children who are being abused in these schools and churches in the UK and around the world? The truth cannot be suppressed forever. We should not allow this case to be forgotten for the cover-up does not need to continue. Perhaps this is a great wake-up call for us to stop trusting and relying on “authority”, particularly when many influential “leaders” are involved in such depraved activities.

Change will have to come from us – the people – uniting, getting informed and becoming self-reliant. If we want to change the world, we need to start by reclaiming and caring for our own communities, or else they will continue to do it for us, and not in a positive way.

If America really cared about solving the problem of homelessness among it’s citizenry, here’s an idea that would work. It would be inexpensive, practical, and sustainable.  I suspect it would also lower crime rates. As far back as 2011, empty houses in America outnumbered homeless families by five times, according to Amnesty International.

Let’s assume that the problem with homeless people in America was a result of not enough housing.  Or, that they couldn’t just give empty homes away to people because they were private property and it would cause legal complications.  This idea would solve all of the above problems.

Did you know that you can make houses out of plastic bottles? That’s right.  Garbage that we throw away each day could actually provide people with homes.  By filling them with sand, and molding them together with mud or cement, the walls created are actually bullet proof, fire proof, and will maintain an comfortable indoor temperature of 64 degrees in the summer time.

And it’s not like there is any shortage on used plastic bottles out there. Here are some statistics from treehugger.com:

“The United States uses 129.6 Million plastic bottles per day which is 47.3 Billion plastic bottles per year. About 80% of those plastic bottles end up in a landfill!”

To build a two bedroom, 1200 square foot home, it takes about 14,000 bottles.

The United States throws away enough plastic bottles to build 9257 of these 2 bedroom houses per day! That’s just over 3.35 million homes, the same number of homeless people in America.

Here is a video showing the construction of these homes:

Many people in third world countries have taken up building homes out of plastic bottles, from Africa to Asia. Perhaps the trend will catch on in America and all of those bottles will stop ending up in the landfills. Wouldn’t they be better off housing the homeless? Kinda like all those empty houses scattered all over the country?

The post America Could End Homelessness In One Year By Doing This appeared first on We Are Change.

Original Article by Elina St-Onge

Before starting this article, I wish to specify that it is not because I choose to question the concept of overpopulation that I also question the need to end poverty, overconsumption and environmental destruction. Overpopulation may be a concept, but poverty and unsustainable practices are a reality and my life is geared towards raising consciousness about alternative ways to operate as a society.

However, I believe it is important to question everything; even claims closely tied to the activist and environmentalist movement. Why? Because by questioning theories such as overpopulation, I discovered an even more promising future than the never-ending struggle of trying to merely control the damage we cause to the planet and each other without addressing the cause.

Questioning scare-tactics, even if they seem to be geared towards noble causes, does not necessarily deny our support of the causes themselves. Yet they might save us from getting caught up on issues that distract us from the REAL problems and relevant steps we can take to create meaningful and long-lasting change.

The Overpopulation Scare: How It All Started

The concept of overpopulation originated in England in 1798, when the Reverend Thomas Robert Malthus saw that food production increased incrementally, while people reproduced exponentially. Based on his calculations, he predicted that the world would be out of food by the year 1980. Malthus blamed reduced mortality rates and encouraged population reduction.

In his Essay on the Principle of Population, Malthus calls for increased mortality among the poor:

All the children born, beyond what would be required to keep up the population to this level, must necessarily perish, unless room be made for them by the deaths of grown persons… To act consistently therefore, we should facilitate, instead of foolishly and vainly endeavoring to impede, the operations of nature in producing this mortality; and if we dread the too frequent visitation of the horrid form of famine, we should sedulously encourage the other forms of destruction, which we compel nature to use. Instead of recommending cleanliness to the poor, we should encourage contrary habits. In our towns we should make the streets narrower, crowd more people into the houses, and court the return of the plague. In the country, we should build our villages near stagnant pools, and particularly encourage settlements in all marshy and unwholesome situations. (Book IV, Chap. V) — Read it online. 

Not only that, he believed certain diseases should not sought to be cured for the sake of population control.

“But above all, we should reprobate specific remedies for ravaging diseases; and those benevolent, but much mistaken men, who have thought they were doing a service to mankind by projecting schemes for the total extirpation of particular disorders. (Book IV, Chap. V) — Read it online.”

As harsh as this sounds, the push for depopulation was defined by those supporting it as a necessary evil to save humanity and the planet.

In 1968, Paul Ehrlich of Stanford University adopted and propagated Malthus’ theory of overpopulation. He claimed that excessive human reproduction has overwhelmed the planet and predicted that the world would undergo massive famines, which would kill off hundreds of millions of people by the end of the 70’s.

In his 1968 work The Population Bomb, Ehrlich stated:

“The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s the world will undergo famines–hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now.”

Because of the fear that such an alarming claim triggered, large sums of money were donated to the UNFPA (the United Nations Population Fund), which was founded the year after Ehrlich published The Population Bomb. This fund thrives on a crisis that – despite being “imminent” – keeps on being rescheduled over and over again for the past 200 years.

How “imminent” is this crisis exactly? Is there really too little space, too little resources and too many people? What are the facts and what are the myths? 

Not Enough Space?

1. The Entire World Population Can Sink Into The State Of Texas

Many believe that overpopulation is a question of lack of space. It isn’t.

Today, there is approximately 7,268,730,000 people on earth. The landmass of Texas is 268,820 square miles (7,494,271,488,000 square feet). If we divide 7,494,271,488,000 square feet by 7,268,730,000 people, we get 1031 square feet per person. This is enough space for everyone on earth to live in a townhouse while altogether fitting on a landmass the size of Texas. And we’re not even accounting for the average four-person family who would most likely share a home!

It is not to say that creating such a massive subdivision would be a smart, sustainable or practical thing to do. Cramming together a population that continues to over-consume, waste and poison the environment the way we currently do would be a recipe for disaster. This is just to give an idea of how it isn’t space itself that is lacking. Notice how small Texas is compared to the rest of the world!

Did You Know?

– Every man, woman, and child on earth could each have 5 acres of land. (Calculated from numbers found on: “Central Intelligence Agency” The World Factbook)

– If we wanted to squeeze close, everyone in the world could stand shoulder-to-shoulder on the island of Zanzibar.

– Plankton make up 3 times more biomass than all 7 billion humans combined.

2. Cities Are Overcrowded, The World Is Not

How can this be proved? Easy: Conditions of apparent overpopulation only exist in cities, not in rural areas.

The urban population is on the rise. (see graph here)

Since 2008, more than half of humanity has become urbanized. The reason is because there are more opportunities to make money in the city than in the countryside. A city is crowded because people come from miles and miles away to move there, not because of wreck-less reproduction and overpopulation.

Did You Know?

– Studies show that birthrates are lower in urban areas than in rural areas. [Source]

– Population growth is slowing down and is predicted to decrease by the middle of this century. [Sources 1, 2]

Not Enough Food?

1. Scarcity Is A Myth

The world is abundant of resources and could provide for everyone’s need, yet every year rich countries waste more that 220 million tons of food. Meanwhile, the poor still starve to death – not because resources are scarce, but because they don’t have the money or have rights to enough land.

Did You Know?

– All the world’s nearly one billion hungry people could be lifted out of malnourishment on less than a quarter of the food that is wasted in the US, UK and Europe. (Click HERE for more outrageous food waste facts)

– Abundance, not scarcity, best describes the world’s current food supply. Enough grains are produced to provide every human being with 3,500 calories per day – 1,500 more calories per day than recommended by the Food and Drug Administration.

– Both of the world’s leading authorities on food distribution (the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization [FAO] and the World Food Programme [WFP]) stated that there is more than enough food for everyone on the planet.

[Source 1 ,2]

Think about it: The earth does not concentrate its abundance wherever there is gold or stop seeds from sprouting if they were not owned or paid for. Select individuals proclaiming themselves as “authority” made those rules up. A whole empire designed for the “richest” to exclusively hoard most of the earth’s resources is nothing more than a game of monopoly covering the fact that our planet provides more than enough resources for all of its inhabitants to share equally.

“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed.” – Gandhi

2. Overpopulation Does Not Cause Hunger, Unfair Management Does

Sociologists Frederick Buttel and Laura Raynolds published a study of population growth, food consumption, and other variables in ninety-three third world countries. The statistics showed no evidence that fast population growth causes hunger. However, they did find that the populations of poorer countries, and those countries where the poorest 20 % of the population earned a smaller percentage of a nation’s total income, had less to eat.

In other words, poverty and inequality cause hunger, not overpopulation.

The theory of overpopulation describes a situation where the number of people exhausts the resources in a closed environment such that it can no longer support that population. A good analogy would be to compare our planet to a barricaded house, with no way to neither enter nor exit. Since the house’s inhabitants would be limited to the space and resources within the house, it is obvious that the refrigerator would soon be emptied out and the oxygen would eventually be used up. There would be too many people and too little resources to ensure everyone’s survival within the house. But are houses usually barricaded? Are crowded cities or poor countries naturally enclosed?

Or more specifically; did our planet come equipped with authorities and policies preventing food from being transported where it is needed or land to be freely inhabited or farmed according to need? No, no and no. 

“Don’t think people starve because the world is overpopulated. The world isn’t overpopulated at all. It’s just very badly managed.” – Max Igan

We blame poverty on scarcity and overpopulation. But seldom do we look at human behavior itself. Seldom do we look at the laws created by none other than humans preventing starving people from having access to food and arable land, or the obvious misdistribution of resources caused by the greed of the minority.

And let’s not forget the “debt” that poor countries “owe” to the rich.

“The history of third world debt is the history of a massive siphoning-off by international finance of the resources of the most deprived people. This process is designed to perpetuate itself, thanks to a diabolical mechanism whereby debt replicates itself on an even grander scale, a cycle that can only be broken by cancelling the debt. ” – Third World Debt, a Continuing Legacy of Colonialism

Not Enough Arable Land?

It is easy to blame some so-called “natural” phenomena that requires artificial measures such as GMOs to “solve world hunger” or population reduction plans, but how about criticizing the actual values behind our system and ways in which it promotes inequality for the benefit of the few? How about questioning the belief that opportunities and abundance can only exist where money flows, when we live on a spacious planet that could provide for everyone if we were to use it intelligently?

Did You Know?

– Many nations can’t realize their full food production potential because of the gross inefficiencies caused by inequitable ownership of land and resources.

– Many of the countries in which hunger is rampant export much more in agricultural goods than they import. Northern countries are the main food importers, their purchases representing 71.2 % of the total value of food items imported in the world in 1992. Imports by the 30 lowest-­?income countries, on the other hand, accounted for only 5.2 % of all international commerce in food and farm commodities.

– Africa has enormous still unexploited potential to grow food, with theoretical grain yields 25 to 35% higher than maximum potential yields in Europe or North America.

– Beyond yield potential, ample arable land awaits future use. In Chad, for example, only 10% of the farm land rated as having no serious production constraints is actually farmed. In countries notorious for famines like Ethiopia, Sudan, Somalia and Mali, the area of unused good quality farm land is many times greater than the area actually farmed.

[Source 1, 2]

Ownership & Control of Land

It is believed that poverty is the result of overpopulation, poor education, racial inferiority or even laziness. But because most people never think to question our current system and the authorities pulling the strings, few realize how the system itself is geared towards enriching the few and enslaving the masses.

The following passage from “The World’s Wasted Wealth: the political economy of waste” by J.W. Smith describes this reality very well:

Land Rights And Ownership

“The often heard comment (one I once accepted as fact) that “there are too many people in the world, and overpopulation is the cause of hunger”, can be compared to the same myth that expounded sixteenth-century England and revived continuously since.

Through repeated acts of enclosure the peasants were pushed off the land so that the gentry could make money raising wool for the new and highly productive power looms. They could not do this if the peasants were to retain their historic *entitlement* [emphasis is original] to a share of production from the land. Massive starvation was the inevitable result of this expropriation.

There were serious discussions in learned circles about overpopulation as the cause of this poverty. This was the accepted reason because a social and intellectual elite were doing the rationalizing. It was they who controlled the educational institutions which studied the problem. Naturally the final conclusions (at least those published) absolved the wealthy of any responsibility for the plight of the poor. The absurdity of suggesting that England was then overpopulated is clear when we realize that “the total population of England in the sixteenth century was less than in any one of several present-day English cities.”

The hunger in underdeveloped countries today is equally tragic and absurd. Their European colonizers understood well that ownership of land gave the owner control over what society produced. The most powerful simply redistributed the valuable land titles to themselves, eradicating millennia-old traditions of common use. Since custom is a form of ownership, the shared use of land could not be permitted. If ever reestablished, this ancient practice would reduce the rights of these new owners. For this reason, much of the land went unused or underused until the owners could do so profitably. This is the pattern of land use that characterizes most Third World countries today, and it is this that generates hunger in the world.

These conquered people are kept in a state of relative impoverishment. Permitting them any substantial share of the wealth would negate the historic reason for conquest — namely plunder. The ongoing role of Third World countries is to be the supplier of cheap and plentiful raw materials and agricultural products to the developed world. Nature’s wealth was, and is, being controlled to fulfill the needs of the world’s affluent people. The U.S. is one of the prime beneficiaries of this well-established system. Our great universities search diligently for “the answer” to the problem of poverty and hunger. They invariably find it in “lack of motivation, inadequate or no education,” or some other self-serving excuse. They look at everything except the cause — the powerful own the world’s social wealth. As a major beneficiary, we have much to gain by perpetuating the myths of overpopulations, cultural and racial inferiority, and so forth. The real causes must be kept from ourselves, as how else can this systematic damaging of others be squared with what we are taught about democracy, rights, freedom, and justice?”

Sustainable Agriculture, Housing & City Planning: Creating Abundance for All While Nurturing The Planet

Alternatives to unsustainable agricultural practices do exist. The success of organic farmers in the U.S. gives an idea of the possibilities. Cuba’s success in overcoming a food crisis through self-reliance and sustainable, virtually pesticide-free agriculture is another great example. Environmentally sound agricultural alternatives can be more productive than environmentally destructive ones. Permaculture is a great example.

Sustainable housing and city planning is also an alternative that should be globally implemented instead of simply pointing fingers at a growing population. The possibilities are endless; from simple Earthship eco-villages to high-tech eco-cities.

Sustainable housing and city planning is not only a great idea for the planet, it would solve all hunger problems we face today. For example, every Earthship home is outfitted with one or two greenhouses that grow crops year-round, no matter the climate. This means that people can feed themselves with only the plants growing inside their own house. A fish pond and/or chicken coop can also be built into Earthships for a constant source of meat and eggs. Hunger is NOT just an “inevitable” part of life.

“Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons.” – R. Buckminster Fuller

Earth’s Destruction: Overpopulation Or Unsustainable Practices?

Overpopulation is blamed for the destruction of the planet, yet have we ever thought of pointing fingers at the unsustainable practices WE continue to perform in the name of “profit” despite the many existing alternatives? It is not a question of the number of people inhabiting our planet, it is a question of personal and collective responsibility.

The truth is, if we all shifted towards an earth-friendly lifestyle and designed sustainable cities that would allow for self-sufficiency and collaboration for the good of all, we would no longer be considered a threat to the planet. We would work with nature and not against it. We are a part of nature after all and it is about time we stop feeling guilty for existing. What we should be critical of are our actions and destructive system we continue to uphold – not our species itself – which can all be changed if we stop pretending we are separate from nature and each other.

All of the unconscious actions we do are a result of just that: unconsciousness. Yet we can be conscious. Being conscious IS natural; it is who we are beyond the artificial blinders we put on as we choose to believe what the media tells us to believe.

Power To The People: Let’s Create Something New

If we built this world, what makes us believe we cannot build something different? As of now, we use most of our manpower, creativity and intelligence to build weapons of war, unsustainable technologies and meaningless products. We mostly unite forces for military action. We waste incredible human potential inside of small cubicles for tasks that could be automated, or that serve no higher purpose.

What if we used all of our manpower, creativity and intelligence for the betterment of all life instead of using it solely to empower the few at the top? What if we united forces not for war and destruction, but for peace and creation? What if we instead used this same potential to create sustainable technologies, beneficial products and harmonious systems that would allow humanity and the earth to thrive? Imagine if we united as a people, stopped complying and created a more beautiful world—not because of some piece of paper we would get in return but, because it only makes sense.

Whether or not overpopulation is real may be debatable, but there is no debating that something needs to change. However, I don’t believe that focusing on merely controlling population growth is very constructive if we don’t change the way the population operates on this planet.

We talk about how “terrible” it is to be 7 billion people on the planet, yet we still ignore inequality and corporate profiteering. We still ignore how sustainable technologies are suppressed in the name of power and profit.

So instead of fearing how many people we are… why not use the power of the many to get our act together and CHANGE our ways?
