"And we have gone from seeing earth as limitless in its natural resources and invincible in its character to understanding the delicate ecological and biochemical balance our planet must maintain to sustain us all in vibrant health." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "Second only to raw algae, which few people can bring themselves to eat, sprouts are the most nutritious food on the planet! Plus, whole meals can be built around sprouts, and they are super inexpensive! The Sprouting Serendipity Library at www.getwellstaywellamerica.com offers a complete range of sprouting information: how-to books, recipe books, a sprout wheel, charts and a business-sized card. In the next chapter, we'll examine the scientific practice of fasting and when to fast as a means to bring about detoxification and healing of body, mind and spirit." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "As Aajonus Vonderplanitz remarks, administering chemo to kill cancer is akin to killing everyone on the entire planet in order to get to a few that you want dead. (See Appendix B.) Would God or nature be so cruel as to withhold the very essentials we need for radiant health? Is our health really dependent upon alchemists experimenting in a lab, searching for the Holy Grail of medicine, that elusive combination of chemicals needed to formulate a miracle drug? Look at animals in the wild." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "Although humans, rats and hogs are the most versatile mammal species on the planet, they still suffer when eating cooked food, as has been borne out by many experiments. There was even an experiment within this experiment. At some point, various types of milk were tested: raw, pasteurized, evaporated and sweetened condensed milk. Plants that sprang up in the various pens were observed. Those that had been fertilized with the urine and feces of the cats fed raw food were vigorous and healthy. Plants fertilized with the excreta of the cats fed pasteurized milk were less healthy." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.)

"For this reason, I have harbored the suspicion that what passes for the mainstream environmental movement has been, for the most part, unfortunately, preaching to the left while the rest of America is wondering what planet these eco-hypocrites are from. Just be real. I know the heartland. I like the heartland, always have. A friend shared with me an ancient Chinese proverb: "In an age of deceit, the truth is revolutionary." I had to fly to Washington, D.C., on business. It was October 2005. The weather was still good, and when I got there I took the subway out to the Pentagon." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"The fourth moon is on the left side of the planet. I marvel at the profound sight of seeing an entire planet hanging in space. It's so incredibly silent and still. I decide to keep going, and do, but don't find anything new, so I turn back with the intent of flying through the outlying rings of the planet. I head toward the rings and, as I do so, I begin to feel energy hitting me as I move through the ring. (Here, I believe I momentarily lose my lucidity or have a total scene shift.) I am back on Earth, still flying. It occurs to me that this has been quite a long lucid dream." - Robert Waggoner, Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self (Get the book.)

"The truth is that only God knows if greenhouse gases and vehicle emissions are changing the climate, but everybody knows that the fewer emissions there are, the better it is for the planet. So why don't we stop all the nonsense and work toward that goal, instead of playing politics with the environment? While this might sound like a routine attack from the left, in fact the author of this quote is none other than Bill O'Reilly of the Fox News Channel's The O'Reilly Factor." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) "Our nation's moral health will be stronger, too. A planet that is healthy for animals is healthy for all of us. Our future depends on their future and making sure that vulnerable species like wild salmon, frogs, and polar bears survive. Let's be kind to animals. Let's be kind to ourselves. SEVEN Drive a Cool Car Lenexa, Kansas, was freezing. All of the hotels were booked." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) "It was a good, stable situation, the kind that promoted a healthy planet, in terms of both the natural environment and the people themselves and their freedom. No wonder Costa Rica was the most democratic of all the Central American countries. Its rain forest was also in the best shape. Ginger and turmeric mingled with wild gotu kola, a valuable circulatory-health herb growing amid smooth pebbles and small boulders." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"It seems to me that this low-carbon society would be one which remembers that our planet is a unique gift -perhaps the only one of its kind in the entire universe -which we are indescribably privileged to be born into. It would be a society that could look back on the six degrees nightmare scenario as just that - a nightmare, one which humanity woke up from and avoided before it was too late." - Mark Lynas, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet (Get the book.) "Largely for this reason, Central America was identified in a 2006 study as one of the world's climate change 'hot spots', areas which are of the greatest concern on the planet. It is hard to see how the tens of millions who currently live in Central America could survive for long in such marginal lands. A foretaste was given by a moderate drought in 2001, which triggered food shortages amongst an estimated 1.5 million people, leaving hundreds of thousands dependent on food aid for several months." - Mark Lynas, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet (Get the book.) "Since ice at the poles acts like a giant mirror reflecting away the Sun's heat, its disappearance works together with carbon dioxide to keep the planet warmer. Indeed, the Pliocene was probably the last time in the past 3 million years that the North Pole lost its ice sheet completely. Ocean circulation patterns also changed. The Atlantic circulation (discussed in chapter 1) was likely also reduced in strength. But how high were Pliocene C02 levels, and how much warmer was it globally?" - Mark Lynas, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet (Get the book.) "At the end, I found I had something truly unique: a degree-by-degree guide to our planet's future. And so, based on this raw material, the book gradually took shape: my first chapter included all the global warming impacts I could find associated with a one-degree rise in temperature, my second chapter covered two degrees, my third chapter covered three degrees... and on up the scale to six degrees - the worst-case scientific scenario." - Mark Lynas, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet (Get the book.)

"Saturn, Jupiter and Mars are given in their correct order of distance from Earth, Saturn being the outermost planet known to the ancients. Venus and Mercury are given after the Sun, to distinguish them from the outer planets. Again this is correct: the orbits of these two "inner" planets lie between Earth and the Sun. The Moon, naturally, is the nearest "planet" to Earth and is given last. The only mistake as such in the sequence is the position of the Sun, which, according to the ancient system followed here, was thought to orbit Earth like the other planets." - Peter James, Nick Thorpe, Ancient Inventions (Get the book.)

"Considering the possibility that there may be another way to hold reality is the key to the golden door of peace on this planet. saniel bonder: Uealinq tke Roots of Lism Religious believers who take every word of their scriptures as literal, absolute truths are often called "fundamentalists." They see a black and white world. They state convictions such as: "If you don't follow these scriptural precepts absolutely, you are sinning against the one true God." "Either you are one of the chosen or you are among the heathen." And, usually: "If you are not saved, you will go to hell." - APC Books, Healing Our planet, Healing Our Selves: The Power of change Within to Change the World (Get the book.) "This doesn't mean we should stop our wise, heroic efforts toward urgent healings for our planet and ourselves. Not at all! But "heal" means "to make whole." If we won't look to see how fragmented and twisted we are, authentic realization of the Core Wound and the paradoxical wholeness it grants will forever elude us. If we are leading-edge healers of humanity, then our fellow humans will be deprived of a healing we presumed we had no need for and therefore never experienced." - APC Books, Healing Our planet, Healing Our Selves: The Power of change Within to Change the World (Get the book.)

"Culpeper writes: "It is essential to find out what planet caused the disease and then by what planet the affected part of the body is governed." A remedy of a contrary nature is applied: for instance, if a disease is caused by Venus, herbs under Mars are used; if under the Sun, herbs under Saturn. In some instances a planet cures by acting in sympathy, each planet curing its own disease; i.e. Venus and diseases of the reproductive system. It is an ancient herbal practise for herbs to be gathered when the ruling planet is in the ascendancy." - Thomas Bartram, Bartram's Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine: The Definitive Guide (Get the book.)

"Lonely planet Publications, publishers of travel books, makes the following statement in its books: "Lonely planet books provide independent advice. Lonely planet does not accept advertising in guidebooks, nor do we accept payment in exchange for listing or endorsing any place or business. Lonely planet writers do not accept discounts or payments in exchange for positive coverage of any sort."1 And the wine writers for the Wall Street Journal described their policy as follows: For this column, we do not accept free wine, free trips, or free meals." - Jerome P.

"There are not only more older people alive today with aging bodies and minds than ever before, but also more challenges to the adaptation of our species on a planet of finite resources. The Alzheimer's movement is a march-to-progress juggernaut: Give us enough time, people, and money, the line goes, and we will fix it. But after thirty years of research and tens of billions of dollars spent, we're not even close. In fact, our expensive genetic tests and neuroimaging devices have actually caused us to drift deeper into confusion and little closer to finding a cure." - Peter J. Whitehouse and Daniel George, The Myth of Alzheimer's: What You Aren't Being Told About Today's Most Dreaded Diagnosis (Get the book.)

"Indeed, the power of mass intention may ultimately be the force that shifts the tide toward repair and renewal of the planet. When combined with hundreds of thousands of others, your solitary voice, now one barely audible note, could transmute into a thunderous symphony. My own motive for writing The Intention Experiment was to make a statement about the extraordinary nature and power of consciousness. It may prove true that a single collective directed thought is all it takes to change the world." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"The very life of the planet is at stake, but the world has been in denial and now, even admitting the problem, the world refuses to change its high C02-producing lifestyle while giving lip service to how important it is to do so. To a reasonable and scientific person it is apparent that a "moderate" solution takes us deeper into the shadow because it creates the feeling that we are doing something to significantly change what is happening, while in fact we are only dipping our toes in the water." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.) "According to Diet for a Poisoned planet, less than 1 percent of the Earth's surface water is safe to drink. In some places in the United States and other countries, the term "drinking water" for tap water should be considered nothing more than a euphemism. The water that the general public uses comes from two sources: underground sources, such as springs and wells, and surface water, such as rivers and lakes." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.) "In addition, we live in a mental and emotional environment filled with messages of stress and death from the media, including news of constant wars and terrorism infecting the planet. The degenerate conditions, lifestyle, and diet that create diabetes emanate from these modern human-created realities, which, taken together, we are calling the Culture of Death. The cure, on the most profound level, is to move away from a global and personal Culture of Death, to embrace the Culture of Life." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)

"At more than 100 atoms apiece, both of these entities are among the largest molecules on the planet. Again, each one created an interference pattern with itself. Zeilinger's group repeatedly demonstrated that the molecules could be in two places at once, that they remained in a state of superposition even at this large scale.25 They had proved the unthinkable: the largest components of physical matter and living things exist in a malleable state.26 Sai Ghosh didn't often think about the implications of her discovery." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)
