  • self sustainability food ,power and wealth control

    Posted by John on February 16, 2023 at 12:43 pm

    Welcome to our forum on the topic of self-sustainability, particularly with regards to food, power, and wealth control. This is an important topic that touches on many aspects of our lives, including our health, our impact on the environment, and our economic well-being.

    When it comes to self-sustainability, one of the most important aspects is food. Many people are becoming increasingly concerned about the environmental impact of industrial agriculture and the potential health risks associated with processed foods. By growing our own food or supporting local, sustainable agriculture, we can reduce our environmental impact, improve our health, and take more control over what we eat.

    Another important aspect of self-sustainability is power. This can mean many things, from generating our own electricity to reducing our reliance on non-renewable energy sources. Solar panels, wind turbines, and other forms of renewable energy can provide a reliable source of power while reducing our impact on the environment. Additionally, by reducing our energy consumption, we can save money and improve our economic well-being.

    Finally, wealth control is an essential part of self-sustainability. By living within our means, reducing debt, and investing in assets that appreciate in value, we can build wealth and take control of our financial futures. This can include investing in real estate, starting a small business, or simply living frugally and saving money for the future.

    In summary, self-sustainability is an essential part of a healthy, happy, and fulfilling life. By taking control of our food, power, and wealth, we can reduce our impact on the environment, improve our health, and build a more secure financial future. Let’s continue this conversation and share our experiences and insights on how we can live more self-sustainable lives.

    Great! Here are some potential topics related to self-sustainability that we could discuss:

    1. Tips and tricks for growing your own food, whether you have a large backyard or just a few potted plants on a balcony.

    2. Ways to reduce your reliance on non-renewable energy sources, such as installing solar panels or using public transportation instead of driving.

    3. The benefits of eating locally grown, sustainable foods and supporting small-scale farmers and food producers.

    4. Strategies for reducing your energy consumption, from turning off lights when you leave a room to installing energy-efficient appliances.

    5. The importance of investing in assets that appreciate in value over time, such as real estate, stocks, or small businesses.

    6. Innovative approaches to sustainability, such as regenerative agriculture, carbon farming, or closed-loop systems.

    7. How to live a more frugal, minimalist lifestyle, and the benefits of doing so for both your finances and the environment.

    8. The role of community in self-sustainability, from sharing resources with neighbors to participating in local food co-ops or energy cooperatives.

    9. The intersection of self-sustainability with social justice and environmentalism, and the importance of addressing systemic inequalities in our quest for a more sustainable future.

    10. Ways to educate and inspire others to live more self-sustainable lives, from starting a blog or social media channel to participating in local advocacy or educational initiatives.

    1. Tips and tricks are great to know and fruit trees and some select plants like tomatoes are great to have but will not sustain you without large amounts of meat and fat to ensure the green plants do not fill you with their natural chemical toxins that are designed to protect them from being eaten. Also plants in most regions are seasonal and preserved fruit and plants usually only supplement a meat and fat diet. Meat and fat and animal products chelate out these toxins. People who try to live by the vegan religion find out once their bodies resources of fat and nutrients have run out they get emaciated from too little fat and nutrients or fat from too many carbs and sick in all sorts or ways if they try to live exclusively on plant matter eg rotting teeth, flatulence, skin problems, suicide ideation, ms, osteoporosis these and more are all things many ex vegans reported they suffered from whilst on the vegan diet and that is why they stopped. also many videos on youtube showing the deteroriation of people on the vegan diet. This tells us how dangerous it can be to try to live exclusively on plants.

    2. Solar in areas that don’t have a lot of sunshine is at best a supplementation to power from the grid and not viable as the only source of energy for many people. It also is heavily supplemented by the oil industry and uses oil industry products in manufacturing materials. They also have a limited life and very expensive to replace. It is also very expensive to set up something that can be independent of the grid and can take many years before it pays for itself. However it is good to have back ups such as generators and charged batteries in case of a power cut or other emergency situation. Public transportation has its limits, it can be good in a city but even when I was in the city and on a low income and used buses out of necessity, I found bus drivers objecting to us carrying our groceries in the bus and telling us they were not taxis. I have found a car to be much more versatile and financially viable especially now I’m living away from the city. If we learn how to maintain our own vehicles and use them wisely the costs can be reduced and they can last many many years. They can fetch and carry and allow us to stay in touch with others face to face in person and in private with our friends in other towns. They are an incredible resource to have.

    3. I totally agree we should support local meat farmers and producers of animal products, they supply an incredible resource in our own back yard.

    4. Yes I agree we should use our energy wisely, however industry is using such large amounts of electricity it doesn’t really make much difference in the larger scheme of things. Also it depends what the source of power is. Nuclear is the most efficient and supplies abundant amounts of electricity. It also has the least waste and pollution of any forms of power supply and can reuse its own waste, hydro if you have the dams to do this is also a great renewable source, we have been told by some one in the industry that sometimes it is claimed in the MSM the levels of water are down so we need to pay more for power when in fact this is not true and they are just issuing a false report as an excuse to raise prices. Power plants can use huge amounts of coal and this is why Nuclear is best for the environment and for providing a cheap reusable source of energy.

    5. Investments can be fickle as we are not in control of prices. The best assets to invest in are a place you can call your own that you can reside in and be protected from the elements and be in control of under Fee Simple title, a vehicle to ensure you have transport that you can fetch and carry in over great distances and a wonderful and supportive family and strong spiritual life, great food supply and great fitness level. Also educate oneself so when needed we can be a great help to our fellow man in so many ways.

    6. We are not in charge of the processes industry adopts and usually for them it is all about the bottom line, no matter what they say or how they promote it.

    7. We have abundance all around us and living a minimalist lifestyle can make us very vulnerable and at the mercy of rising prices and emergency situations. It has been found that living in a minimalist way makes you more dependent on the system not less.

    8. Yes communities need to support one another in any way they can, preferably without the Govt controlling everything via providing funding and setting up groups. We can do this ourselves in the private and away from their prying eyes and control

    9. Environmentalism is one giant hoax. The Govt say they care whilst promoting covering the land with toxic chemicals called fertilisers on farms and coercing the farmers into using products that are harmful, threatening them with penalties if they don’t obey. They also dump tons of poisons in the bush to kill wildlife, saying they are targeting rodents etc. The poison does not discriminate and it commits genocide on wildlife which has to slowly rebuild populations in the areas they dump it. It causes many called invasive animals to over reproduce to compensate and creates plagues of rodents in areas. Many politicians have shares in these chemical companies, they don’t seem to worry about conflicts of interest these days. They talk the talk but they don’t walk the walk and they don’t care about anything but profit. See Ewan Campbell’s story on 60 minutes on youtube if you think they truly care about sustainability. Social justice? No such thing it is just a propaganda movement that is used to hail in such destructive ideas as transgenderism which is sterilising our children and brainwashing them to believe they can be anything they want to be if they will agree to have anything on them that is capable of reproducing cut off their bodies and to chemically alter and damage their bodies with drugs they are prescribed that promise them miraculous transformation and instead maim and cripple them. There will always be inequality in the system and this is totally normal and natural. Everyone cannot be equal however we can work to ensure any contract is equitable, in other words everyone gets a contract they are happy with and they both get fair consideration for effort put in or for products supplied.

    10. The ones who need educating with sustainability are not the masses but the corporations. Of course because the corporations are in charge of the education system and the curriculum, they ensure the majority remain dumbed down and brainwashed and they hang on to their profit margin. Sustainability is not something industry cares about, they rape and pillage from the land as much as they can. Blogs and social media are mined everyday by the powers that be, it is the modern day gold rush for them. I believe it is far more urgent to learn how to do all of these things in the private and to quietly get together with one’s fellow man and live separately from the system as much is as practicable although the internet can be a huge resource for learning if one taps into a good source of information, such as this website and other teaching channels. One has to be able to learn to discern between quality information and con jobs and brainwashing channels. If we download helpful resources and share them with one another in private this is the kind of sustainability that will serve us well, whilst at the same time gratefully supporting financially those who provide quality information.
