35 Years of The Gaia Foundation
To celebrate The Gaia Foundation's 35 year journey walking alongside some of the world's most respected and celebrated Earth custodians and defenders, we've created this beautiful short animation with talented artist Temujen Gunawardena.

We work with custodians of seed for a food revolution that will feed the world, cool the planet and place farmers, communities and the wild back at the heart of our food system.
We accompany local and Indigenous Peoples on their journeys towards dec...

    I agree that part of the reason is I'm from a developing country and I do a mediocre job, still, I'm happy that my share of ecological destruction and consumerism is low 🙂 my phone (which I use to write this) is over 4 years old and I'll not change it until it breaks down beyond convenient use

    We need a lab that can undo some of the genetic alterations made to our seed, specifically the ones that are made for the sole purpose of controlling and owning the seed like stifling its ability to procreate successfully generation after generation. This lab can be backed by a govenrment that's had enough and doesn't care what these companies say think or want. Not in our country... here we made it legal to undo the dammage you have done. We will march on without you. We will starve at first, you and all the other countries that you have a stranglehold on won't help us during this time... we know this, we will power threw that and shake you off our backs and be there for the next country that chooses to do the same. That can happen, but it will take a strong country with a strong government, that is also altruistic and working for the public good. I'm not too hopfull because I have yet to see a government like that. Do you think your government would be willing to do that? I don't think mine would.

    When Bill Gates and the other globalists like him voluntarily give up their underground mansions in New Zealand, capable of sustaining life in time of Nuclear war, and plant some trees there instead, then I might listen to their propaganda. The reality is, that regular people usually don't overconsume overall (of course, there are exceptions, but not majority!) - people use mostly essential tools, they need to work and to educate. Those, who over-consume are the 0.01% - exactly like Bill Gates, and exactly like the people, who sponsor such "foundations". If they want to lead, they should do so by personal example. Stop selling this crap, it's a cheap propaganda for 15 yrs old, but it's very far away from the reality of life.
