[otis31755]

enjoyed this video very much and living in Philadelphia we love what this cafe' is doing. I learned alot for my nonprofit geo-life.org from this video. check out my walkable video out and let me know what you think

beautiful area

What I think is that here is a lady that finally gets it. It's not about weather you meat or not. It's about treating people, animals, business all of it in a manner that is good for all. There is no future in the rip it up and mangle it world of large business.

Now, try to imagine a world without the destroyers at the top that are raping our planet, us and our future. Big industry is not the problem, no morels or feeling of right IS!!

Another great video Janaia!

I'm from the Philadelphia metro area originally, but wasn't aware of this restaurant and organization. I will have to make a point to stop in the next time I'm visiting relatives!

This woman's vision is very much in line with the Anastasia Ringing Cedars vision for our future sustainable healthy joyful soulful world!

I suggest everyone read these inspiring books. The inspiration offered is unmatched!

Peace.

Fascinating books. a lot of interesting ideas, particularly the child raising ideas.

[quantumsolutions]

Only humans could think to wash feces into our water system. Feces breaks down by aerobic bacteria and would breakdown much more quickly by composting it. Instead of dirtying our water, we could be feeding our soil.

Poignant point about cooperating instead of competing. Drives me nuts when inventers of wonderful humanitarian product run to the patent office where it stays locked up and often a gag order issued so it never sees the light of day.

Share info with the world for free! 5*

as always... that was amazing!

Talking about love and butchering in the same video... Humans really have some weird ideas about life. You're referring to John Robbins' book, but it seems you overlooked the fact that he is vegan, mainly for ethical reasons, and he also wrote about the health problems that are directly related to every kind of animal products, not just the factory farmed ones. All in all, OBJECTIVELY SPEAKING, isn't this video about selling the suffering of other sentient beings to make humans suffer too? :o)

[westkan]

I guess one could interpret this video in that matter. But one would have to first agree that the consumption in moderation , of the meat of topic, causes unreasonable suffering of human individuals

[madeofyucca]

Baratgad: Love and butchering are not mutually exclusive.

One can love, give a good life to and care for an animal as well as kill and eat it. So, I don't think it is objective to say the the video is about selling the suffering of other sentient beings at all, because wether the animals are suffering or not is subjective.

An amazing woman.

Judy.. You rock!

What a thought provoking video.. Seeing how localization can become a network of localized communities. Great stuff.

[peakmoment]

"a network of localized communities" -- that's the vision of the Transition Movement that started in the UK, more recently catching on in Australia and the U.S. You might enjoy our Peak Moment program with Jennifer Gray on "The Transition Movement Comes to America."

[DoblyTufnell]

I enjoy all the videos of your's I have seen, but not that one with Jennifer Gray. I'll check it out. Thanks.

The agriculture industrial complex is soft killing us with cancer foods we need to grow our own.

[mikezephyr]

better yet, develop garden coops.

the most revolutionary thing you can do is grow your own food and share it.

widely dispersed individual action attempting to undermine a system will be a challenge unless there is solidarity.

[vention4wh]

Awesome work. Thanks for this.

[ZedAlfa273]

Truly, one person can indeed make a difference.

[mikezephyr]

but together, we are stronger.

humans suffer when they are estranged, disempowered and isolated from each other and from nature.

let's change that.

[ZedAlfa273]

Agreed.
