THE LARGEST MOVEMENT IN THE WORLD
Need a lift? Have you seen this yet?

Paul Hawken speaks at Bioneers 2006 - video 6 mins.

<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzMPUKAXM7U>

How the largest movement in the world came into being, and why no one saw it coming.

"Paul Hawken has spent over a decade researching organizations dedicated to restoring the environment and fostering social justice. From billion-dollar nonprofits to single-person dot.causes, these groups collectively comprise the largest movement on earth, a movement that has no name, leader, or location, and that has gone largely ignored by politicians and the media. Like nature itself, it is organizing from the bottom up, in every city, town, and culture. And it is emerging to be an extraordinary and creative expression of people's needs worldwide."


Come together...

1. Beautiful.
I really can't say enough how fond I am of that kind of positive approach right now. Its exactly what we need, to feel energized, connected, and hopeful in facing these challenges.

5. Bigger than the one that killed Elvis?!?!
Must be coming from Rush Limbaugh. Those big ol' "concrete bowel syndrome" movements caused by all those oxycontins can give you a heart attack from the strain if you're not careful..

Push, Rush, pushhhhhhhh!!!
