HOW AN ADVANCED PLANETARY SOCIETY WORKS
First of all, we have to build the ideological infrastructure ... cognitive, conceptual and physical.
However, everything we need to create an advanced planetary society, is already here. We have the technology, science and knowledge to start building the future right now. This is not an imaginary science fiction dream, it is backed by hard facts, that can become reality at any time ... if we only had the necessary collective commitment.
So, what's the main obstacle that stands in the way of achieving the proper mindset and inspiration? The answer: Conservative, right wing ideology. This way of thinking is based on fear, hate, racism and an unrelenting opposition to forward progress. as long as there are elements in our society, that adhere to such an ideology, denying science facts as well as living in a conspiracy based alternate reality, the prospects of achieving an advanced planetary society are are dim.
However, by promoting and concentrating on the right and necessary steps, we can start to move forward and begin to create a better society, that will advance the entire planet into a better future. So, what do we need to get started?. Well, here is a short list with the main objectives. We will go into more details, as we keep going forward.
Economy
- The entire economy works as a moneyless system
- The entire economic system is set up to work in harmony and to the advantage and advancement of the environment ... Eco integrated
- All energy sources are free and renewable
- All physical work is automated
Society
- The entire Society is based around the acquisition of knowledge and invests heavily in education
- Social status is based on amount of knowledge
- Political decisions are based on science and for the good of Humanity and the planet
- The entire society is working towards the good of the planet and all its people. Everybody is trying to better themselves and is doing the right moral thing in all aspects of life

Moving fish farms enables seagrass meadows to thrive, study shows ... Renewable energy
If its Gardening, Farming, Aquaculture, or any type of interaction with the environment, at the end it all comes down to Eco sustainability. If its the production of bio fuels, or production of food, it all need to be sustainable. If its not, the entire Eco system of this planet will eventually collapse. Game over. That simple. So, by implementing new techniques and processes, we can assure, that we can produce enough food, renewable energy and still have a functioning Eco system, Biodiversity and therefore forests and natural habitats for many generations to come. This two articles below, give us some examples, about how this can be achieved. As always, please share this post (share buttons below), and help us spread the word. Thank you for your support.

the meadows boost human well-being and the economies of coastal communities, but waste material from finfish aquaculture is known to have damaged seagrass populations worldwide.
However, off the coast of Cyprus in the Mediterranean Sea, many fish farms have been moved into deeper waters – and on the seabeds beneath their previous locations, the meadows are flourishing once again.

How outdoor activities, like Gardening or Aquafarming can benefit your mental an physical health
Since we just mentioned aquaculture, lets see, what science has to say about it: We all know, that seafood consumption is on the rise, and wild stocks, are heavily over fished. Especially the smaller feed fish. Now, commercial aquaculture can produce plenty of seafood and relive the pressure on the wild stocks. However, everything has it up and down sides.

FOOD PRODUCTION IN THE FUTURE: how Aquaponics and small scale gardening can help to insure sustainable supply
In the future, Aquaponics systems to grow food, as well as new Gardening practices, new Farming or Homesteading techniques will have to be used to take the pressure of the environment. As more and more people will inhabit the planet, food production will have to increase. Commercial, large scale Farming, will stretch the resources of the planet to its limits. However, by using Aquaponics, or other small scale production methods, this could be avoided. If a large section of the population is growing their own plants, we will not only ease the strain on the environment, but at the same time life a organic, healthier lifestyle. If you love gardening, farming, planting trees, or care for the environment in general, take a look at what you can do right now, to help the planet. You only need a small space in your kitchen, patio, or garage, to grow your own Herbs. Try it and bring nature into your home.

Imagine growing vegetables on rafts in a backyard pond. You won’t need to water, weed, or fertilize plants when water is your growing medium. Because a pond will stay cooler than soil, you can harvest cool-weather crops, such as lettuce, for a much longer period.https://www.motherearthnews.com/organic-gardening/gardening-techniques/aquaponics-natural-pond-zm0z18jjzsphe
Elevate your gardens to waist high level for convenience and easy access. Elevated gardens are easy on your back and knees and are perfect for the patio, balcony, deck or any area where a bit of planting space is desired.

ECO FRIENDLY, BIODIVERSITY, GARDENING, COMPOSTING, FARMING ... Fighting Climate Change With Food Scraps: Why Composting Is Easier Than Ever - Vogue ... https://www.scientificamerican.com
CLIMATE CHANGE has become the top threat to our planet and its BIODIVERSITY. We all know, that biodiversity is the cornerstone, that keeps ecosystems balanced and healthy. At the same time, diversity alone can only keep the balance, and it needs help to do so. By keeping our soils fertilized with natural composts, we can do our part to help.
Composting nowadays is easier than ever. We don't need to rely on any chemicals at all. Humans produce enough organic food waste, to produce all the fertilizers we need. The future of Gardening, farming and agriculture, will depend on the wise use of natural food composting, to keep our soils healthy. In places were the soil is hopelessly contaminated, AQUACULTURE/ AQUAPONICS, is the right solution to produce food without having to plant into contaminated soil.
This two articles take a closer look at those problems. If you want some more information on AQUAPONICS, please feel free to look around the site. You will find all the resources you need. As always, please share this post before you leave. Thank you very much for your support. Enjoy.
Fighting Climate Change With Food Scraps: Why Composting Is Easier Than Ever - Vogue
In the ongoing quest towards living more sustainably, we often end up building individual pyramids towards a more harmonious-with-nature lifestyle. For some, the pinnacle might mean launching an informational campaign about the environmental hazards of plastic straws. For others, it could sprout as a set of community gardens, or installing solar panels to capture that straight-from-the-sun energy.
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/climate-change-is-becoming-a-top-threat-to-biodiversity/
Climate change, alongside factors like land degradation and habitat loss, is emerging as a top threat to wildlife around the globe, the reports suggest. In Africa, it could cause some animals to decline by as much as 50 percent by the end of the century, and up to 90 percent of coral reefs in the Pacific Ocean may bleach or degrade by the year 2050.
Modern aquaponics is technologically advanced and is an efficient and effective way of producing natural food. Fishes are reared in large tanks, and the plants are nurtured hydroponically. They are implanted in beds with a little gravel or clay, and their roots hang down into the water.

How Do Aquaponic Systems Work?
Aquaponics is a growing technique that takes two efficient systems and combines them to work symbiotically with each other: Aquaculture is the process of farming fish (such as tilapia, koi, or bluegill) or shellfish, while hydroponics is a method of growing plants without soil. When the two are combined, you can create a nearly closed loop system that produces both plants and fish for consumption.

Gardeners sense intuitively that the earth is not ‘ours’, that we are stewards and not owners. Ultimately, we like those plants we tend answer to forces beyond our immediate control. Wind comes and weather, winters are too cold or warm. We battle drought. Or yes, there can be too much rain.

Climate change and habitat conversion are flattening biodiversity | Alphr
The study’s authors focused on the diverse region of northwest Costa Rica, surveying birds and plants at 120 sites, from farmland to rainforests.

In recent years, concern for the accentuating crisis faced by India’s farmers has grown rapidly. So I decided to travel to the areas from where news of grassroots efforts leading to important relief and hope for local farmers have emerged. My aim was to document these efforts to bring some hope in the current depressing scenario. After studying several such efforts, I hoped to be able to draw some lessons regarding the direction farm policy should take to bring real relief to farmers.

WHY PROTECT OUR OCEANS?
People need air to breathe, water to drink, food to eat, new medicines, a climate we can live in, beauty, inspiration and recreation. We need to know we belong to something bigger than ourselves. We want a better future for those we care about.
Because the oceans are the largest ecosystems on Earth, they are the Earth’s largest life support systems. To survive and prosper, we all need healthy oceans. Oceans generate half of the oxygen people breathe. At any given moment, more than 97% of the world’s water resides in oceans. Oceans provide a sixth of the animal protein people eat. They’re the most promising source of new medicines to combat cancer, pain and bacterial diseases. Living oceans absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and reduce the impact of climate change.
The diversity and productivity of the world’s oceans is a vital interest for humankind. Our security, our economy, our very survival all require healthy oceans.
So when Marine Conservation Institute works to save the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands or the Arctic Ocean, when we work to get agencies to devote more energy to research, monitoring or enforcement of laws, we are working to save the oceans for all of us and future generations.
Whether you live on the coast or far from it, whether you eat seafood or not, you and the future of all those you love depends on healthy oceans.
Our job is to see that you have healthy oceans. It’s the smart thing and the right thing to do.
