My Birthday Wish

Tomorrow - the 1st of July 2013 - I will be 34 years old. While doing the dishes this evening, I realized that the next year of my life had to be extraordinary. That's why I here will post my most personal blogpost so far...and I hope my wish will come true: I wish to let my voice be heard - and for kindred spirits to hear it and be inspired.

So here are a few up close and personal pictures of me - I am a green blogger and part of my blogging is self-style, based on a sustainable apparel choice. Here, I was on my way to a seminar about a Fashion Industry without waste, and I am wearing a black knit top from a Swap Market, a white H&M Conscious Collection tanktop made of organic cotton, leather-look leggings from Pieces marked by Oeko-tex and a DIY signature GREENHUNTER necklace. The wood piece in the necklace I found while in nature somewhere, and I hope to take time to make more of this kind of jewellery including sustainable materials soon.

And here a couple of pretty raw shots of the 100% ethical catwalk show SUSTAIN at Brigthon Fashion Week 2013. It was a completely mind blowing experience and the first catwalk show I ever officially attended - that's why I made a gazillion beginner's mistakes. But I am still proud of myself for getting a press pass and some of the pictures are not so bad, right? ;-)

And finally - the two most interesting things that happened in my week - in a two very different ways. Friday afternoon, a driver on the street had a seizure and his car derailed and steered in the direction of me and my companion P. In the last of the last minutes I reacted and moved, and the car only lightly touched us. Others on the busy street of Copenhagen were not so lucky - P later gave me a champagne, she feels like I saved her.

And another of my favourite places right now - Twitter - provided me with a free portion of water-kefir, a symbiosis between probiotic bacteria and yeast. I hope to pay it forward soon if it keeps growing nicely, and also to taste my own Paleo soda tomorrow :-)

My next year of life WILL be fantastic - I hope yours will, too!

Love, Greenhunter <3

Beyond Green Economy - SACRED ECONOMICS Conference in Copenhagen

Sometimes your life is changed in most unanticipated ways. And sometimes you do have a premonition about that there is going to be a life changing event in your life - and you make sure that you are in the right place at the right moment. A moment like that happened to me last sunday when I attended the conference BEYOND GREEN ECONOMY @ Copenhagen Business School.

I have for a while now looked into the Transition movement as well as the concept of Circular Economy. Concepts that looked like the only way out of the economic dead end our world is stuck in today - but as much as I wanted to believe these concepts could work I could not entirely understand how? We can not proceed as before, fantasizing about how more economic growth will save us all, when there are clear limits to growth, as there are in any ecosystem. The Earth is no exception - and we have reached the limits of Homo sapiens' growth curve.

What follows can only be a decline until a stable population size is established. When we look at bacteria in a Petri dish, this is merely a scientific fact. But when we look at the human population the prospects become gruelling. Is this what we want? To try to push the limits, until the limits are pushing us back and we are at the point where truly only the strongest survive?

And who will be the strongest at that point? Real human individuals or the power mastodonts of our age: Corporations? It seems as if the corporations already have won the arms race, for we blindly believe that we MUST work harder, longer and in boring & unrewarding corporate jobs, to buy more and more and more things and services that the corporations produce.

Am I not right? Or who do YOU work for? For you? For food to eat, a place to live, time to spend with your family, friends and with yourself? Or for more and more things and services that cost money? And how are we going to cope globally if money ceased to exist in the form and with the financial banking system as we know today?

If there was a Basic Income guaranteed for every human on the planet, will it not result in chaos and competition (more than the chaos and competition already caused by our global economic system)?

Interesting thoughts like these were ewoked during the conference, and especially during the very inspiring talks by Charles Eisenstein, the author of Sacred Economics.

I realized that I was right in believing in that more spirituality in our daily lives was the answer. I realized that I am so right, in my fight against the separation we have endured - from nature, from our children, from our family and friends, and from our own bodies and spirits.

I feel more at peace now. I believe - more now - that things will be alright.

GREENHUNTER will continue to work actively on the green transition of our consumerism, on the reconnection to our true human nature, and the reconnection to our origin: the Universe.

Join me in the search for information for a positive future for us. You might want to look into the links posted here, and especially the concepts of: Gift Economy, Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN) and read the book Sacred Economics.

Charles Eisenstein - Author of Sacred Economics

Classic Capitalism encourages people to focus on maximizing their profit on every thing they purchase. Gift Economy makes people focus on maximizing the size of the gift they want to give. Think about it - it's basic human nature :) Wouldn't you act the same way if you considered giving a gift to someone?
