If you decide to go commune let me know. I'd consider a commune with the right selection of people.
Wow thank you! :D

Unfortunately we aren't in a financial position yet to do anything but make some modest plans and study what practices we want to use.

Though, we are currently researching founding a non-profit to either establish a community cannery like this one in Virginia.

but we are really inspired by Will Allen of Growing Power and ultimately want to run a non-profit modeled after his.

Assuming that the universe even knows we exist.

I don't see why that's necessary. If people continue to be the type of uncontrolled virus they are on earth throughout the rest of the universe, we may end up being a scourge which indiscriminately wipes out life on not only one planet, but hundreds, or thousands, or more.

It's nice to have potential don't you think.

I suppose it depends on the possible results of the potential. It's good to have the potential to be a concert pianist, especially if you like playing the piano. It's probably not so good to have the potential to be a deranged serial killer.

What's your point?

You're welcome

There is a startup commune in New Hampshire.

Druids Refuge :: Communities Directory

There aren't any in Louisiana but I didn't expect there to be. Folks round here don't go for that kind of thing. :eek:
There are a few promising ones in our area of NH... we used to visit and work with DAcres and knew a couple people who founded an unlisted primitivist group near them.

We want to visit a few of the ones in our current area, see if we mesh with anyone. (not just starting ones but established ones that are welcoming new members) Some of the "Quaker based" groups in particular sound welcoming.
Unfortunately some of them require buy in that we currently can't afford... and I still have my dream of going on to get my PhD, which complicates issues.

DAcres looks pretty cool and the Quakers sound interesting. I've only known one Quaker but he was a great guy.

Life does have a way of complicating things. ;)

No Maple Syrup by 2100? - YouTube

This is a discussion on the fate of one species over the next several decades. If current trends continue the Sugar Maple will be all but wiped out in the USA. Ending the multimillion dollar sugar industry in the North East.

Global Warming is caused by the area of Space that our Solar System is travelling through.

Next event is the Coming Comet that will cause a Pole Shift and Create a New Heaven and Earth.

Python Imports Banned

Does the introduction of invasive species contribute to Global Warming?
Not generally... what it does is decimate local species and ravage ecological diversity.

Pythons in Florida are not only decimating endangered species but also hitting species that are supposed to be common so hard they are driving them toward endangerment. They also eat pets and it's only a matter of time before they get a human.

What about plant species like Kudzu, do they have an impact beyond the local ecology?

It looks like there is slight increase in Nitrogen Oxide in the local atmosphere... but how much of an impact this has on global warming I can't say.

The number of domestic cattle (and their diet) has much more of an impact.
