ECORES FORUM ISSUES CALL FOR ACTION

“We, an international group of academics and activists, scientists and social justice advocates, government and community leaders, professionals and concerned citizens, assembled on the EcoRes Forum virtual platform in April 2007 to discuss the ethical, political, and socio-cultural aspects of climate change and to forge a common vision and action plan. We hereby commit ourselves to the development and implementation of a climate justice agenda for the 21st century, and we call upon the world's citizens to join with us in this commitment.”

The full statement Achieving Global Climate Justice in the 21st Century can be found at EcoRes Forum or can be downloaded here. We welcome your endorsement: To do so, complete the online form at http://www.eco-res.org/call_signature.html or write endorse@eco-res.org, including your name, organization or institution, address, and email.


 
About EcoRes Forum
Based on the principles of equity, sustainability, environmental justice, and ecocentrism, the EcoRes Forum is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to the free exchange of information and ideas concerning social, ethical, political, and environmental issues related to climate change via a series of online e-conferences and virtual discussion boards. All programs are offered free of charge to registering participants.

Our web-based dialogue series launched in April 2007 with a two-week debate about whether a societal paradigm shift to ecocentrism* might speed the global climate movement. More than 700 participants from 80+ countries took part in the discussion, which was followed in April 2008 by Environmental (In)Justice: Sources, Symptoms, and Solutions, taking a look at some of the underlying causes of environmental and climate injustices around the world, with participants sharing examples and suggestions on how best to resolve and redress these issues. Based on this series of discussions, members of the Forum have issued the EcoRes Forum Call for Action: Achieving Global Climate Justice in the 21st Century.

By hosting this cross-disciplinary series, the Forum team aspires to building synergistic bridges among activists and academics, scientists and social critics, researchers, journalists, community leaders, and concerned citizens in order to increase our shared understanding and thereby to empower joint efforts on climate justice issues.

* From Wikipedia: "Ecocentrism is a philosophy that recognizes that the ecosphere, rather than any individual organism, is the source and support of all life and as such advises a holistic and eco-centric approach to government, industry, and individual."

Who I'd like to meet:
Everyone interested in addressing climate change, personally or professionally, by group or individual efforts, voting with ballots, wallets, and pencils. Each effort counts!

Sound like you? Care enough to get involved? Visit our website and join the Forum

Ready to make some personal changes? A few starting points:

  1. Shopping: Bring cloth bags to the market. Buy local, organic products. Make sure everything is minimally packaged!
  2. Change to compact fluorescent bulbs, and learn how to turn light switches OFF. :D
  3. Take shorter showers. Try turning off the water while you soap up, shampoo, or shave, then turn it on to rinse.
  4. Pick at least one night a week to eat meatless. Big change: Go Veggie! (We can recommend some GREAT cook books)
  5. Home improvements: Insulate home and water heaters, change AC filters (better: turn it off!), adjust thermostats on home/water heaters, install low-flow shower heads, replace old appliances with energy efficient ones (try the manual can opener!), switch to double pane windows or a tankless water heater.
  6. Change your mode of transportation: Carpool. Take the train or bus. Bicycle. Walk. (Skip if you like)
  7. If you must drive, be car smart: Inflate your tires and check air pressure monthly, change your filters, don't leave your car idling, reduce how much you drive (group errands), and make sure your next car is fuel efficient or hybrid.
  8. Complete the cycle: Reduce your use and garbage, recycle what you DO use, and buy recycled products whenever possible.
  9. IE: Use only recycled paper (start with the back of your own!)
  10. Air dry your clothes, and wash laundry with minimal water -- on cold, with natural, biodegradable laundry products.
  11. Unplug all your chargers and unused electronics. Turn off computers and TVs -- standby is not eco-friendly.
  12. Use a push mower (bonus: doubles as a non-electric treadmill).
  13. Plant a tree or two (or 100). Make sure they're locally growing, and that rainfall patterns can support them once established. If you live in a dry area, try desert-scaping!
  14. SPREAD THE WORD.

This Planet Belongs To Me.

This planet belongs to me,
But I'll share it with you.

Will you love it as I do?
Will you cherish it as I do?

We know so little of each other,
Yet this wondrous thing I will share.

These lands and these oceans,
So precious to behold.

The birds and the fishes,
The antelope and the bee.

Come share this wonderful planet,
Come and share it with me.

You know the people that say utopia isn't possible have already given up. Living sustainably in balance with our environment and food sources will bring us the freedom to live in harmony, and provide the opportunity for all to excel in their efforts, dreams and life path. Utopia is not only possible but it is the very essence that should guide our dreams and vision for ourselves and with each other. It is the horizon we should all strive for everyone and every nation. Anything short of that will lead us astray.

Hope all is well with you.

If you know anyone with little ones in the house, or who works with children, please let them know that we have turned our January Book "Parsnip Meets A Snowman" into a short voiced-over film. It's on our myspace page and on youtube.

The book of the month is always available to read free on our own website www. thefoodiesbooks. com but we thought this would be a nice way to reach children who are not yet starting to read.

So if anyone wants to help their child make the connection between weather / seasons and the food they eat, this is a little fun starting point.

Hope you like it!
Have a happy year in 2009.

Greetings,

Thank you for joining our circle of friends. Welcome. - We would like to invite you to visit our website and read about the variety of different free, healthy and life saving solutions, available right now, that we can all take advantage of, to save our one and only home Planet Earth, and to ensure a sustainable green future for all of us, the humankind.

We must keep in mind that, united we stand and prosper, but divided, we have been falling for many, many years. Let us learn how to unite and work together, let us learn how to transform the information offered on our website, into positive and constructive action, in order to solve humanity’s major ecological problems, One Problem, at a time. - Ranking number 1, on top of our list of major manmade environmental problems, obviously is the Global Warming.

Keep in mind that silence solves nothing, it never has, and it never will. Our silence will encourage more environmental devastation, violence and corruption at all levels, all over the world. Our silence will help to defeat and silent the peaceful ethical voices of reason and common sense. - It is our civic duty and moral obligation, to get involved and never be silent, to solve our many problems, by simply casting the light of truth and exposing the source of the problem, followed by enlightening educational measures to solve the problem through a peaceful conflict resolution.

There are only 2 ways of spreading the light of truth and hope, either to be the source of light, truth and hope, The Projector, or be The Mirror, that spreads and reflects the light of truth and hope to others, which one are you? - Next time you see the angelic smile of sweet, innocent little angels, our children, running around, growing up in this world, stop and think for just 1 minute, think about what kind of a polluted Home, we are raising them in, and the Home we are leaving behind for them.
