    The fact the majority of people generally don't know where their food and other products come from and how they're made is one of the greatest problems in the world today.

      Barry Johnson These little gals (the honeybees) are responsible for every third bite of food, EVERYONE takes. Honeybees are the most remarkable creatures. Bee classes are fun and interesting...

      Humans harvesting their own meat, their own Vegtables, their own Fruits, their own Grains is the next revolution, and a wonderful side effect of people avoiding the Grocery store as much as possible due to COVID. Hunt. Fish. Garden. Home Stead. Study. Learn. Invest. Humans Being self sufficient will put less of a burden on the corporate farming system. for resources you can't produce yourself, barder. This takes work. As a last resort: At least buy Locally Grown Meat and Produce from small Farm Operations.

    • @2ChristSublimity
      @2ChristSublimity Před 3 lety +1

      Agree 100%
      And if we generalise this ignorance across all the other products that we consume, you start to discern the unspeakable damage that we inflict on the environment. The core of this problem, I think, lies in the lack of seriousness when considering the impact of mass scale production of all kinds on the environment; a major Part of this lack of seriousness is political corruption which allows the corporate world to get away with murder.

    No wonder we are told to learn from bees and ants How they procure all their needs when they are easily available and store them for lean period. In the case of honey bee we steal them frequently and deprive them of their hard earned honey which is money for us . Observing nature teaches us the most simple effective productive ways to be applied in our daily lives . Thank you for this incredible presentation Marianne

    ME: Why am I alive?
    OLD WOMAN: Because everything else is.
    ME: No. I mean the purpose.
    OLD WOMAN: That is the purpose. To learn about your relatives.
    ME: My family?
    OLD WOMAN: Yes. The moon, stars, rocks, trees, plants, water, insects, birds, mammals. Your whole family. Learn about that relationship. How you’re moving through time and space together. That’s why you’re alive. ~ Richard Wagamese
    "I carry meaning. I care for family. I care for society. I care for environment, all life. I care for their future. I cannot just live for I. I came to be, because of what came before. And thus, I am now, for what will be -- meaningfully." ~ Paul Jung
