The rise of local chocolate production is good not only for communities’ economy, but also for the environment. Francisco explains that cocoa farming, when well managed, helps to preserve the original vegetation and biodiversity.
“Cocoa grows under the shades of the trees, so there is a symbiosis between plantation and forest,” he said.
Pesticides are also not necessary for the plantation in Filha do Combu’s case, since cocoa is native to the region.
“We use sustainable techniques to have better lighting over the cocoa trees, but there is no need to control plagues as there is a natural balance,” said owner Izete Costa. https://news.mongabay.com/2018/11/smallholder-farmers-defy-cocoas-production-model-in-brazil/

Since the Colombian government and the Marxist-led Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) reached a peace agreement in 2016, after a 52-year war that left 200,000 dead and 5 million displaced, the challenge has been building lasting, sustainable peace. Rotary District 5420 (Utah, United States) and District 5040 (British Colombia, Canada) are taking action to help build this peace, investing in a global grant funding a Positive Peace Workshop for Colombian youth. https://rotaryserviceblog.org/2018/11/30/rotary-clubs-partner-to-empower-youth-to-build-peace-in-colombia/

Planet Indonesia, an NGO that works in the Mount Niut area, is putting the participatory conservation principle to the test. Instead of focusing on putting poachers and traders behind bars, the group is creating incentives for them to stop — a unique approach in Indonesia, where conservation efforts have tended to focus on calls for tighter law enforcement and more rigorous punishment. https://news.mongabay.com/2018/12/group-helps-illegal-bird-traders-transition-into-different-lines-of-business/

By 2008 the decimation of the forests, along with a series of intense storms walloping the province, prompted British Columbia to take action on climate change. The provincial government introduced a carbon tax, putting a price on fossil fuel emissions. And, crucially, all the money raised was returned to the people in tax cuts.
“It was groundbreaking,” said Karen Tam Wu of the Pembina Institute, an environmental thinktank. “It was the first one in the world that was revenue neutral.”
“Are we willing to do something to try to stop [climate change] from taking place, to slow it down?” he said. “Even for people who say: ‘It wouldn’t matter, Canada could have all of the emissions in the world and it wouldn’t make any difference.’ That’s not the point. We should do our bit.” https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/dec/04/how-to-make-a-carbon-tax-popular-give-the-profits-to-the-people

Nothing but the starting point of life is often to consider those to us before those far from us, so at least the evolution of empathy on the 3rd density begins. So that being said, I'm hopeful my species survives more than the elephant but I must admit the elephant would be lovely to survive so would every other species including down to bacteria, it would be nice to not cause death around us as a species.

Animals whales etc have empathy. Plants have heartbeat, pulse with life. Mushrooms are massive living organisms and all is aware of each other. Do not think you are superior, that we have any preferential right to exist more than the other creatures. We depend on them for our habitat but it is us who is redundant here. No other creature depends on us and as far as I can see it, most would be better off without humans around now at all.
I recall the oldest gorilla in a cage. He could sign to communicate. Before he died he signed that mankind was stupid. So our specialness is most probably our lost sense of the life we are living in, the lost sense of the fact we are part of life not apart from it. It does not matter if we all perish. All is well nothing is lost. There is no real failure, but really what we do here now, the way we live is so well expressed by that gorilla. I truly feel sad about this. I agree with the silverback gorilla. We are stupid in the sense there is no heart based reality, this is what the gorilla and the other creatures know. . I am not meaning to criticize you. I am sorry we face this predicament. We have created it. The world wants to be loved. We have been poor stewards of our planet. I wish you well Cyan. I am taking a break from this for now.

It is hydrocarbons . Hydrocarbons are MADE by the planet.
Sorry, not from dinosaurs or whatever the latest fake factory BS type of propaganda they are coming up with.
SO, naturally, being made by the planet, hydrocarbons are renewable. And yes, oil wells are renewing themselves. EVERYWHERE AROUND THE WORLD.
Now, all you , literally, need , is to keep greedy capitalists from pumping too much of it too quickly. Basically, cap it at certain percentage, depending on the well.
And voila, you are going to get nearly non-depletable resource that is going to last hundreds of years, if not forever.

As I mentioned , they failed with the "Global warming" propaganda meme, as it was proven data is fake.
So, instead of going back to the real science, they changed the meme (using same fake data) - "climate change".
Did anyone ever asked - has climate ever was stable on the planet?
And what does this meme mean? Other than used as propaganda, where it suits some.

Quote:Americans Voted Overwhelmingly to Protect Wild Places
No they did not. The propaganda department doesn't want you to be energy-independent.
Oil is renewable resource, it is HYDROCARBONS, not "fossil fuels" as propaganda leads you to believe.
When you cap production from oil wells at certain low percent, you can have 100-200 years, or potentially, unlimited production.
In order to prevent this, "protect wild places" meme is being pushed so that we don't seem to have enough low, slow producing oil wells.

I am ok, thanks,
I just made you guys a gift. I opened your knowledge and your countries up for the , basically, unlimited energy that we already have.
1) Hydrocarbons, renewable, if not pillaged like monopolist capitalists do (Ok, here in US, Rockfeller's Standard Oil still monopoly, current name is Exxon/Mobil and a bunch of "sister" companies that pretend to have a competition).
2) Giant amounts of energy everywhere around us. Aether is 10 to the 35th POWER TIMES (or around) more powerful than gravitation. No wonder oil monopoly men paid Einstein to put it to rest.
Enjoy.
I also outlined where propaganda is trying to make you being ...let's put it this way, slightly in the dark. Capitalists like that, poorly educated consumers, that can be easily fooled.
And when talking about light and enlightenment, I would think it might not be such a great idea to discuss concepts that have been manufactured by dark propaganda forces - such as gay, lesbo, pedophile, anti-male, anti-white, anti-family, anti-education, and other fake memes such as "global warming" and "climate change", etc.
Just not a good idea to keep dunking yourselves in dirt and then attempting to lift everyone into the light. It won't work, all your attempts to being enlightened will keep getting stained. In the search, it might be a good idea to completely avoid any source of information that has what I outlined above, as corrupted. In fact, it might even help as a good indicator of what's corrupt and what's not so. That is, if you want to learn the truth, of course. Or..at least the next level of the onion.

GDP scales with energy consumption. 5.9 +/- 0.2 mW per year 2010 USD for 1970 to 2016 and for every trillion dollars of global GDP we add, the concentration of CO2 increases by 1.7 ppmv. To live in harmony with our habitat, we would have to limit growth of energy use, growth of population, scale down on consumption. As well if we can develop more of a heart based relationship to each other and to the world around us then right living will fall into place. Kind Regards

If someone has cancer then their immune system has failed. It can be due to toxic overload, chronic inflammation, pH balance. Oxygen levels, or any range of things including mental state but the point is that the positive benefit of this treatment is that the researchers created a compound of iridium and organic material, which they can directly target towards cancerous cells, transferring energy to the cells to turn the oxygen (O2) inside them into singlet oxygen, which is poisonous and kills the cell—without harming any healthy tissue. So it seemed a worthy post here on the positive news thread in that it is another option for treatment, maybe alongside CBD for example.

With these better anti-cancer therapies available, why do they still use chemo?
Chemo doesn't work most of the time, and it makes the patients even sicker than they were with the cancer.
If they legalized CBD they could charge for that and use it. Or that Iridium method that was mentioned.
Why do the people in pharmaceutical industry like to see people suffer, even though they could still make money with minimal suffering?

The purchase was critical for the two groups, which have set a 20-year goal of buying enough strategically placed parcels that grizzly bears and other wildlife can safely traverse increasingly populated valleys to reach the safety of national forest lands." https://missoulacurrent.com/outdoors/2018/12/ninemile-grizzly-corridor/
