Gaia's Garden & Our Economy


The Gods created a system which turns stardust into solar systems and causes life to evolve wherever conditions are right. We call this good earth, Gaia's Garden. The Goddess Gaia is otherwise known as Mother Nature.

As Mr. Spock might say "It is not logical for a people to poison their world for money, while causing mass extinctions." I believe that we who walk the old ways and honour the Rede must strive to Do No Harm to Gaia's Garden.

On these pages I have proposed alternative fuel sources such as Sweet Sorghum butanol which would provide both food (grain) and fuel (butanol) while it cleans our air of excess CO2, provides income to American farmers, makes middle eastern oils a "So What" anecdote in our history, creates jobs and keeps the money in America where it belongs.

Unfortunately for us all, "We The People" fell for the Republican Rope-A-Dope. This yielded a "Contract On The Middle Class of America". The Republicans have gutted the efforts to find alternative fuels by cutting funds for it's development. You see, The Congress of Fools that we have elected has been sold to the highest bidders and big business is running America via the Republican Agenda.

Vice President Al Gore and T. Boone Pickens have been made the brunt of many Republican jokes and have been, to a large extent, pushed aside. Meanwhile, the US is involved in 3 major wars and several smaller wars in the middle east and for which we are paying a hellish price as we bleed jobs to foreign shores.

However, every once in a while a game changer comes along. I am referring to a vehicle available today. This is not some laboratory concept but an actual vehicle on the road in America and around the world today which gets 84 mpg! It's called the Auto Moto and it is a three wheeled semi-enclosed 2 passenger motor scooter. And it is priced at around $3,800.00.

This version is 150cc and is not freeway legal but sure has a place on America's streets. If you want a fun vehicle for pleasure, errands, commuting or for students, which won't kill the planet or your wallet it's here NOW!

There is a rumoured 260cc version with a top speed of 80 mph which will provide 70 mpg and will be freeway legal. I have spoken to Auto Moto and have confirmed that the larger version IS in the works. I am already on the waiting list!!!!

In my house we plan on keeping the VW New Beetle and the Scion but will use the Auto Moto for every day commuting and shopping.

We drive reasonable mpg vehicles, have a vegetable Garden, we have energy efficient lighting, heating & cooling at home, we recycle and buy organic and eco-friendly foods and products. We are doing what we can to protect Gaia's Garden in all that we do.

What are your intentions? Will you join us and help us restore our environment and economy?

Big business is blind to their impact on us all. Their focus is limited to profits and they will, and are, selling their souls and our future in the process.

Please act before it is too late.

Brightest Blessings,
