A New Level Of Consciousness by John Perkins

John Perkins, co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance, discusses the prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor, an indigenous prophecy told by first peoples all

John Perkins, co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance, discusses the prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor, an indigenous prophecy told by first peoples all over the world about a time dominated by an intellectual, masculine, mind-driven consciousness, which is followed by an opportunity for balance between that consciousness and one that is heart-driven, intuitive and feminine. It is a call for a shift in humanity's relationship to the Earth and our relationship to each other. According to the prophecy, that time is now.

The prophecy only mentions the opportunity for this balance, making it a call for a shift in humanity's relationship to the Earth and our relationship to each other. It's up to us to bring forth this new level of consciousness by raising awareness and taking action for the planet and all life on Earth. We must live everyday as if it was Earth Day.

At #COP28 in Dubai, Raya Salter and Carlos Garcia host a panel of experts to examine the impact of #MilitaryOperations on the climate. At a time when humanity needs to focus on the restoration of land and water, wars around the planet are destroying cities, lives and ecosystems. Peace is essential for keeping the climate system from catastrophic failure. Tamara Lorincz tells us the amount of money that flows to military operations, and its resource extraction, is over two trillion dollars annually. While Dr. Amara Eniya explains how debt, compunded by droughts and floods that are the direct result of the #ClimateCrisis, is crippling many nations who struggle to provide for the basic needs of their people. John D. Liu is the voice of Commonland, the restoration efforts that are being accomplished around the world, bringing back land and hydrological cycles.

Rethinking the narrative for climate change in media

Multistreaming with https://restream.io/?ref=nVVND Our media has the power to promote positive ideas and a clear narrative, but more often than not it reinforces the polarisation that exists across the political spectrum. To avert climate change, surely we’ll need a broader consensus than already exists, at least around the solutions. So, how might we scale a new story? And what role, if any, does the world of media play? Join this broadcast to hear from: - George Marshall - Co-founder at the Climate Outreach with the aim to help people understand climate change in their own voice. George has written two books surrounding the topics of climate change, personal behaviour and psychology: “Carbon Detox” and “Don’t Even Think About It: Why Our Brains are Wired to Ignore Climate Change”. - Elizabeth Segran - Senior Staff Writer at Fast Company Magazine, writing on topics surrounding design, with a particular focus on the fashion industry. Liz is the author of The Rocket Years, which will be published in April 2020.
