[GMW #4383] Advertising, Packaging and Publishing Is Harming The Earth


[GMW #4383] Advertising, Packaging and Publishing Is Harming The Earth Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4769 ~

The Earth:

"Dear Robert, you attended a conference on book promotion and self-publishing in Santa Barbara. Twenty people during two days were taught how to produce books, get them published, get them advertised, promoted and sold in the largest possible quantities. Don't you think that this might harm me?"

I:
You are right.  I learned among others that:

- there are 7,000 different catalogs in the US
- 11.8 billion copies of them are mailed out annually
- each US citizen receives 78 catalogs
- there are even catalog handbooks
- the US handbook lists 5,000 catalogs in 106 categories, the Canadian 1,000 catalogs in 130 categories.

I also learned that 50 billion dollars are spent annually in the United States to design packagings.  Can you imagine, only to design them! The incredible packaging explosion in the US copied by the rest of the world might become a disaster.

The Earth:
"Yes, it is already to a large extent."

Volume II - The Art Of Personal Happy Living
Chapter 5 - Of Love

I am simply in love with life, with the world and with humanity.

To love is the first, fundamental step. All the rest follows.

[GMW #4346] Dream Large - Do As Many Dreams As Possible


[GMW #4346] Dream Large - Do As Many Dreams As Possible 
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4732 ~
In 1998 I expressed the dream to see produced and published at the end of the 20th century the following works:

Lamentations of the Earth and Humanity at the End of the 20th Century

Hopes, Dreams and Visions of Humanity at the End of the 20th Century

Ideas, Plans and Proposals at the End of the 20th Century.

Well, at least I produced 5000 Ideas and Dreams for a Better World.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II - The Art of Personal Happy Living
Chapter 5 - Of Love


Love for life is the great, simple answer to many of our problems.

For example,
- if we loved nature we would not unnecessarily destroy her,
- if we loved our Earth we would not endanger her with thousands of atomic weapons,
- if we loved humanity we would not let so many of our human brothers and sisters die of hunger.

Love is the key to a better future.

The United Nations should become the World Organization of Love. It is already the World Organization of Hope.

[GMW #4329] UnThingizing The World With A Human Touch Of Life


[GMW #4329] UnThingizing The World With A Human Touch Of Life Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4715 ~
We humans do everything we can to prolong human life and at the same time some governments are filling the Earth and outer space with nuclear weapons able to annihilate all of us. That is only one of the innumerable, unintelligent contradictions of the present human society.

But this thought has also occurred to me: suppose we would be able to prolong human life even more to make us live forever: immortal.

What a catastrophe this would be: innumerable authors would write many books translated into many languages, wanting to be read by everybody; innumerable painters would never cease producing paintings; builders would endlessly build more and bigger businesses invent ever more products, etc. It would never end. The whole human species would be thinginized to an incredible degree. And what would be the fate of the Earth?

A film maker should produce a film: If Humans Never Died!  It could bring forth quite a few lessons. 

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,Volume II - The Art of Personal Happy Living
Chapter 5 - Of Love  Lessons from others, questions by others, the vagaries and accidents of life, the fortuity of human encounters and love, those are our great teachers.
