[GMW #3768] The Fate Of Earth Is Our Utmost Priority


[GMW #3768] The Fate Of Earth Is Our Utmost Priority Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4163 ~
Most of the United States is geared to new inventions, new industries, new production, new consumption, more economic output, more economic growth, more 'goods' and products, more construction, more road building, more consumption, more new activities of any sorts.

This is their utmost priority and great success until recently when the question of the environment, the fate of the Earth and of her vital elements came to the fore.

At this stage the mammoth US consortium of interests, corporations and values has difficulty to admit the existence of environmental concerns.

Hence the US opposition to internationally agreed treaties and measures to save the environment.

It will take a few severe crises and several years until the United States will join in international actions. Alas, so much unnecessary damage will have been done in the meantime, not the least by the imitation of the US by many countries.

Just think of the vanishing of a species every five hours these days!

The indigenous people of Guatemala cultivate love relationships with death.

They keep their coffin near their house, place flowers on it, talk to it, get accustomed to it, because it will be their longest, permanent home.

[GMW #3053] Harmony Communities & Nations Living In Right Relations With Nature



[GMW #3053] Harmony Communities & Nations Living In Right Relations With Nature
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3447 ~
In addition to world, national, provincial and municipal parks a new type of community should be created for the preservation of the Earth, namely:

Harmony Communities i.e. areas in which a number of families would live in harmony, in right relationships with nature without destroying her.

In earlier ideas I proposed that an entire nation in a forested, tropical zone such as Paraguay or Guatemala could be made with world aid a Harmony Nation.

New ages need new concepts and new words. Do not hesitate to formulate your new concepts and words.

[GMW #2790] Airline Magazines & Airlines Are Pollution


[GMW #2790] Airline Magazines & Airlines Are Pollution Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3183 ~
Flying over deforested areas of Guatemala what was the first thing I saw in the airplane?  A luxury magazine, the Two Hemispheres of 219 pages filled with paid advertisements to buy, to buy and never cease to buy.  The International Civil Aviation Organization should calculate how many acres of forests in the world are destroyed, to produce airline magazines alone.

Rasur:
"Why don't you propose, the suppression of airline magazines all together?  People can bring along their own readings or write their journals and ideas as you do."

I:
You are right.  I will suggest it to the International Civil Aviation Organization.  It is already bad enough for the environment that air traffic creates an enormous pollution of the atmosphere.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 3 Of Consciousness
During the yearly debate of the UN General Assembly there are so many national leaders that one does not even bother to look at them anymore.  They may be great at home, but seen at the UN they look rather small.  Once I mentioned to my colleague Sir Brian Urquhart that I had seen three heads of states in five minutes on the second floor of the UN.  He commented:  "If you have seen one, you have seen them all."
