Audio: Social Justice on Australian Christian Radio

what excercises do you use when doing the non violent training? besides the obvious pushups/situps ;)

How may we address social justice for 3rd World poor, climate change and non-violence all at the same time? Enabling the poor to rise to the educated middle classes creates the social and economic networks that guarantee their freedom from abusive individuals and social systems. Climate change can be addressed thru tropics-wide reforestation and farm greenery while waiting for low-cost non-carbon energy technologies to develop. Non-violence can be institutionalized thru 'idealistic' business. Put them all together and we come up with tropics-wide 3rd World agribusinesses set up and run by idealistic skills.
How may we begin to create such happy 3rd World events? Thankfully humanity has blogging nets to depend on. As individuals or groups, bloggers by the millions can chip-in 'loose change' capital each to set up one model agribusiness project after another. The Philippines is a good starter site because technologies and skills for such endeavors already exist in said country. Blogging nets linking up with local skills can form the entrepreneurial groups that will set up and run the model projects. Hundred-hectare project priorities may be as follows: Multi-crop multi-livestock farms with managed forest. Ethanol distilleries with sweet sorghum plantations. Heavily-reforested upland mini-dam hydropower chains. Forest ranches with high-protein forage trees. Crab, fish and shrimp aquaculture with mangrove reforestation. Wetland and waterways forest resorts with breeding facilities for threatened animal species.
These projects can yield above-average dividends for all investors. Ethanol distillation alone yields 'petrochemical rate' profit at around 80% of sales! Most satisfying however is the consequent social leverage. Our projects' high profit rates will encourage some thirty million Philippine employees to copy the models. Earning just $200-$500 monthly, the employee masses will pressure State to pass a law that budgets lending to thousand-employee groups that set up agribusinesses in joint venture with 1st World companies. Joint ventures triple local capital thru equipment loans so the law will create thousands of large companies and millions of jobs each year, for all eternity. Translation: all local poor eventually getting high-salary jobs, stock shares and dividends that enable them to become educated middle classes on permanent basis.
Our Philippine model should certainly be copied by all job-starved tropical countries. Lacking capital, the 3rd World governments will lobby for 1st World laws that dedicate a major percentage of public and private funds (over $100 trillion used mainly in 'casino trades') towards grant of long-term loans to the agribusiness joint ventures. Thus will 'mere individuals' (blogging nets) begin to raise the world's bottom poor, address global warming, and even end the current recession (thru creation of massive 3rd World markets) all in one shotgun blast. Sojourners certainly have all the ideals, talents and networks to lead.
