description=My blog attempts to make the case for why local (food, business, governance, resource use, etc.) is better and far more sane than the complicated, fragile and completely unsustainable system of infrastructure, production and distribution most humans currently depend on. Entry topics will vary considerably but localization ties them all together.;

Text of the page (random words):
hip of resources whereby materials are procured in ways that enable their availability in perpetuity truly sustainably managed resources are never taken at a rate greater than replacement this is what ensures long term viability sustainability yet this term has been co opted by marketing and all manner of industry because corporations know that people when given the choice very often want to do the right thing and they re willing to pay for it so the great corporate sponsored greenwash is unleashed and a lot of people to0 busy with their own hectic lives fail to notice the lack of substance and the very unsustainable practices behind the hype shame on them and shame on us while i don t intend to discuss sustainable consumer goods in this post i do think it s important to pause and think about the meaning of sustainability why because even a locally produced sustainably managed product won t make the world a better place if we and by we i m referring to citizens of industrialized countries don t bring our consumption in line with total available resources as eamon o hara recently wrote in a bbc news post the modern western lifestyle has an inbuilt dependency on the cheap resources and low carbon footprint of developing countries which has compounded global injustice the world simply does not have the resources renewable or otherwise to sustain western lifestyles across the globe in the aggregate our consumption is creating misery injustice and global instability as well as environmental devastation this is a huge problem and we the ones using up more than our share have to be the ones to begin solving it one way for industrialized societies to begin to address their global footprint carbon political human suffering etc is to begin relocalizing their economies and learning to live with what s available around them now obviously this would not be a simple undertaking even if you do happen to live in a beautiful place with many wonderful natural resources close at hand not only do many people live in places that are just completely unable to support the population arizona comes to mind but the poorest of the world s poor the people s whose resources we re exploiting have also become dependent on a system we ve imposed upon them simply removing that system won t necessarily help them and will likely even hurt them in the short run it s a daunting and massive undertaking that is bound to spawn greater suffering whether perceived westerners learning to live much more simply or real poor countries losing foreign investment dollars but what other ethical choice is there in the short run we re destroying the future potential of the world s poor the long run well the long run looks a lot like our poor behavior catching up with us fast shall we be proactive or reactive shall we do the right thing now or wait for our collective debts to come due there are organizations around the world doing the work of re introducing displaced peoples to lands and practices that used to comprise their ways of life before empire and corporate multinationalism moved in heifer international www heifer org is one organization addressing ways to relocalize food security on nearly every corner of the globe we too are displaced in many senses the multitudinous skills of our ancestors have been replaced by service and expert economies in which most of us really only hone one skill and have to pay someone else to perform the other services we need to live trying to re learn all of these skills may not be possible but we can re learn how to produce food building materials and clothing for a start food shelter and clothing that s more than a lot of the world s people have and collectively i m confident that a community can re learn a whole lot more than just the basics we ll just have to get comfortable with sharing what we know posted by gardngrl at 11 16 am no comments labels sustainability thursday august 9 2007 prodigal blogger photo by kate downing i have something to confess this summer i m struggling to find my way this is true professionally personally and it s certainly true of my relationship to this blog the reasons i started this blog are legion but i do believe i was guided by my own passionate belief in the transformational power of relocalization i am an earnest person with solid convictions and i believe almost above all else that most of us are going to need to fix our gazes and focus our efforts on our immediate surroundings if we re going to thrive it was my intention to create a mostly upbeat space to promote relocalization by fostering discussion and providing real life examples as well as counter examples of what a local focus has to offer i also hoped to educate others as well as myself about the complexities of our current situation but i now think that i have to admit to something else i started this blog because i feel profoundly disconnected from most of the people around me and i believe it s difficult to begin discussions of relocalization with others i m an introvert i may be able to hold my own in one on one conversations but i still feel awkward group discussions are even more challenging so for someone like me to begin asking other people to think about how much their quality of life might improve if wal mart folded if we looked to ourselves and our neighbors for a lot of the products and services we currently buy and if we ate only what was in season and locally or regionally available is well a really tough assignment in this country people like their choices to be nearly infinite we expect it but as good as it feels temporarily to get what we want when we want it the psychological as well as cultural and environmental consequences of such entitlement are real and damaging i guess i have the hope that through this blog i can connect with a few kindred spirits out there but also contribute in some small way to cultural healing this is a tall order perhaps it would be easier and feel better for me to carry out this work if other aspects of my life were in better order i recently had the privilege and delight of marrying the person with whom i want to spend the rest of my days my relationship provides a supportive foundation where much else is shaky it is a gift for which i am most grateful but like everyone else i have a lot of struggles with which to contend health family and the depression that comes with work that is an un fulfilling necessity most days i would trade a kidney for a stable affordable living situation like most people i am struggling so much with getting by when i d much rather be going about the business of living modestly and happily building community and creating thriving local economies but i can t do it alone and right now a few months into this blog experiment that s how i feel alone i want to continue to build this blog and to fill it with ideas i want to share it with you and i hope you ll share something of yourselves and your ideas in return the prodigal blogger is limping along but she s back posted by gardngrl at 12 15 pm 3 comments labels personal reflections sunday july 8 2007 local bounty forgotten harvest earlier today i went for a walk into the hills south of my house in addition to my comfortable walking shoes i was armed with one of my cameras and a sharp eye intent on capturing some images for my daily photo blog with my senses tuned to notice some of the details that i ordinarily filter out i wanted to see and document my surroundings what i saw over and over again was an incredible bounty beautiful ripened fruit hung from trees all around me more than half of the properties i passed had trees bearing some kind of orchard fruits many of them cherry and apple some of them pear with so much fruit ready to be picked and enjoyed i wondered for a moment why nobody seemed to be harvesting from their own trees why would a person waste what s free and easily accessible then i remembered that as a group humans particularly those in developed countries choose what must be purchased over what is plentiful and they do it frequently we squander why is it that we re used to the presence of bounty and so it has long since failed to merit our attentiveness i believe this is part of the reason i can t imagine that humans living through subsistence in a less forgiving climate would allow ripe edible and delicious food to go to waste but in this country where the majority of us buy our food from grocery stores buildings that house and categorize a remarkable number of ostensibly edible options from around the globe we fail to see the local bounty all around us i believe too that we ve become so pressed for time that we prioritize exchanging hard earned currency for cherries picked washed and packaged by the hands of another over spending a couple of hours twice a week for a month or so to pick the cherries growing in our yards it s much more expedient after all i know this is how it is for many of us i see this as a problem and not just because it wastes food but i m only covering the scope of things related to our forgotten harvest today so i will let the time issue lie for now additionally there is the problem of harvesting equipment most of us with orchard fruit trees of any maturity are going to need ladders in order to harvest the fruit do you have a ladder i m a renter and not a homeowner and i don t have a ladder i know a few homeowners in the area who are also without ladders we re all hard pressed to gather the fruit without a little something to stand on but how many of us know our neighbors or someone who would lend us a ladder do you see where i m going with this the logistics of harvesting fruit from trees becomes complicated rather quickly i think that we ve witnessed some fundamental cultural shifts in the last several decades that have put us into this predicament i have to imagine that the original property owners who planted all of these trees did so for more than ornamental purposes they must have done so with the realization that they would need ladders and while ladders are commonly owned by homeowners i imagine that a few decades back more people knew their neighbors and could depend on them for the use of equipment from time to time i also assume that earlier generations of folks were much more accustomed to the physical labor required to pick there is ample evidence that as we continue to invent and acquire labor saving devices as more and more of our paid work takes place from a seated position or within a narrow range of motion we re all becoming more physically dysfunctional muscles and joints that in our grandmothers and grandfathers were sufficiently developed through a wide range of physical activities are in us losing functionality and leaving us very susceptible to chronic pain and injury a dear friend of mine recently spent about 3 hours picking berries in her yard and her back bothered her for almost a week afterwards i should also point out that this friend would be widely regarded as fit and active it s this person s opinion that we ve misplaced an awful lot of priorities in recent decades in this state where hunger coexists with ridiculous excess we re wasting what i would estimate to be tens of thousands of pounds of fresh edible and in many cases organic food growing in people s yards and those of us that would like to change this find no shortage of obstacles in our paths i recently moved into a rental house that has two giant cherry trees now burdened with lots of ripe fruit because i can t find a ladder to use i am left to watch helplessly as the fruit drops to the ground and rots we need neighborhood equipment exchanges we need willing and healthy bodies we need to care about and invest in our local food security we need to find the time to feed our neighbors and ourselves anybody got any bright ideas posted by gardngrl at 12 44 pm 6 comments labels food security thursday june 28 2007 re localization an answer to the end of suburban sprawl ah the suburbs safe quiet green every american s dream right a soothing retreat from the workaday world a place to proudly inhabit one s home castle a gentle setting for raising one s kids the impulse that drove the development of the suburbs seems reasonable or at least easy to understand but the fact remains that suburban america was built on numerous unhealthy un neighborly and unsustainable assumptions kids who live in suburban housing developments many of which do not even have sidewalks cannot safely bike or walk places and so must be driven instead often housing is located at a distance too remote to other daily necessities for it to be practical to do anything other than drive indirectly the development of suburbs has led to disconnected children with poor fitness likewise the tendency for suburban families to inhabit their cars when they are not inhabiting their homes means that they miss opportunities to connect with neighbors and others who live nearby finally the car culture that is fostered in suburban settings contributes to pollution greenhouse gas emissions road congestion auto fatalities there are more people on the road right and numerous other negative unintended consequences if you believe that we ve reached peak oil on this planet and there is a lot of scientific geologic evidence out there suggesting that we have then you have to imagine that systems dependent on petroleum are going to eventually break down suburban development has been made possible by access to cheap and apparently limitless fossil fuel energy we wouldn t after all consider commuting 30 or 40 miles each day if gasoline was 15 00 gallon we wouldn t consider building 2 500 square foot homes if it cost us at least as much in dollars each month to heat them folks the fact is life in the suburbs cannot be sustained biofuels which by the way have to be grown and therefore displace food production can t fill our gas tanks keep our computers running heat our homes and power our lights why do we assume limitlessness when our resources are finite we need to re group and re localize and we need to do it now an interesting essay linking the current housing crisis and peak oil can be found at http
