“Every year many millions of animals suffer needlessly. AN ANIMAL A FRIEND fights as an advocacy organization for the rights of animals and animal-friendly consumers for the welfare and the rights of all those animals whose suffering generally takes place behind heavily guarded fences and, for the public, not accessible places; and for the consumer interests of citizens who want to live in an animal-friendly way out of their philosophical convictions. Foundation A ANIMAL A FRIEND has as main objectives: -Promoting the rights for / of animals to live free from abuse. -Promoting an animal-friendly way of life as a means to prevent animal abuse.” “Effective altruism is built on the simple but unsettling idea that living a fully ethical life involves doing the most good one can. In this course you will examine this idea’s philosophical underpinnings; meet remarkable people who have restructured their lives in accordance with it; and think about how effective altruism can be put into practice in your own life.” “Effective altruism is a joint effort. Our goal is to make the EA Forum the central place for collaborative discussion about how to do the most good we can.” “We conduct and coordinate research on how to do the most good in terms of reducing suffering, and support work that contributes towards this goal.” “There are many egg substitutes available when a recipe calls for eggs. All these egg substitutes can be easily purchased from your grocery stores and health food stores.” “The Electronic Frontier Foundation is the leading nonprofit organization defending civil liberties in the digital world. Founded in 1990, EFF champions user privacy, free expression, and innovation through impact litigation, policy analysis, grassroots activism, and technology development. We work to ensure that rights and freedoms are enhanced and protected as our use of technology grows.” “We are named after Ella Baker, a brilliant, black hero of the civil rights movement. Following in her footsteps, we organize with Black, Brown, and low-income people to shift resources away from prisons and punishment, and towards opportunities that make our communities safe, healthy, and strong. “ “Bulk surveillance violates our fundamental rights and makes free speech risky. This guide will teach you a basic surveillance self-defense skill: email encryption. Once you’ve finished, you’ll be able to send and receive emails that are scrambled to make sure a surveillance agent or thief intercepting your email can’t read them. All you need is a computer with an Internet connection, an email account, and about forty minutes.” “Directed by Franklin Lopez, END:CIV examines our culture’s addiction to systematic violence and environmental exploitation, and probes the resulting epidemic of poisoned landscapes and shell-shocked nations. Based in part on Endgame, the best-selling book by Derrick Jensen, END: CIV asks: If your homeland was invaded by aliens who cut down the forests, poisoned the water and air, and contaminated the food supply, would you resist? Backed by Jensen’s narrative, the film calls on us to act as if we truly love this land. The film trips along at a brisk pace, using music, archival footage, motion graphics, animation, slapstick and satire to deconstruct the global economic system, even as it implodes around us. END:CIV illustrates first-person stories of sacrifice and heroism with intense, emotionally-charged images that match Jensen’s poetic and intuitive approach. Scenes shot in the back country provide interludes of breathtaking natural beauty alongside clearcut evidence of horrific but commonplace destruction.” Blog on nuclear power. “Wm. Roger Witherspoon has spent more than 50 years working in all forms of the media as a journalist, author, educator, and public relations specialist. Along the way, he has written extensively on state and national politics, foreign affairs, finance, defense, civil rights, constitutional law, health, the environment, and energy.” “This website highlights how energy transitions around the world are moving forward. It shows how they work, and what challenges lie ahead. The e-book on Germany’s Energiewende explains the country’s politics and policies, often regarded as the front runner in the global energy transition.” “Universal Life Force Energy can be acessed and re directed to bring one’s Mind, Body and Soul back into harmony, balance and well being in the way of healing. Every one can access this to some extent. Energy Works is all about using this Energy to its maximum potential – working with the greatest intent – for the greatest cause – to bring about balance and harmony in line for the Healing on all levels: the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. We all have the capability to heal – and we all have the right to heal – Energy Medicine can assit with this. Energy can be used to assist both people and animals with our healing in many different forms; in forms of modalities such as through Reiki, Magnetic/Auric work, Spiritual Healing; the energy and vibration of plants and flowers as in Flower & Plant Essences, and the use of plant properties such as oils and extracts, plus crystals – so many ways are available to us when the intention is honest, clear and heart felt.” “With the increasingly evident reality of global climate change, there is an imperative to change the ways in which we create and use energy, in all its different forms and applications. Many human activities have an impact on our planet’s biosphere. The majority view of scientists around the world is that greenhouse gas emissions have to be brought under control. With atmospheric carbon dioxide at the highest level ever, we need to take urgent action. The former Howard Government proposed nuclear power as a solution to global warming and proponents continue to advance that proposition. The Briefing Papers available on this website discuss key issues in the debate around the suitability of nuclear power for Australia’s electricity needs, and the problems that surround this technology.” “The contributors to energyscience.org.au have authored a range of briefing papers to inform and encourage debate about sustainable energy choices and the need for change.” “Enformable is focused on providing critical information about energy related topics for readers around the world. The functional goal of the project is to provide a user-friendly public resource, complete with database of supporting research materials and data. Enformable supports researchers and experts in the fields of alternative energy production, and provides valuable research and nuclear news to readers from around the world. This support includes coordinating with leading experts to provide an available medium for sharing critical information with an international reader-base. Our writers focus on the world-wide issues, and issues in your back yard, providing critical research and expert opinion on new regulations, safety procedures and equipment, and financial cost analysis to better prepare nations for a “nuclear” decision.” “Many Western philosophers admit that Buddhism is a rich philosophy. It has a plausible theory of personal identity: the separate self is merely a conventional concept, which can become dangerously addictive. It also contains a theory of wellbeing: the ideal state is the calm contentment that comes with realising one’s deep interconnections with the rest of the world.1 But can Buddhism make important contributions to the field of political philosophy?” Film: “Political power—armed central authority, with states and war—is it part of human nature? Is it necessary for human community? Or is it a tool that ruling elites use to live at the community’s expense? A tool that does violence to human nature and the world? Engines of Domination offers a theory of political power as a tool for making tools of human beings—an engine that converts human energy into authority and privilege for the rulers. Invented in the Bronze Age, brilliantly refined for six thousand years, today the engine has caused a human emergency that threatens to destroy our world. This documentary makes a powerful argument that there is only one hope for saving the future. Armed central authority must be abolished, creating a world of cooperative peaceful communities—in other words, an argument for anarchism.”Found 1997 Results
