Nature’s biggest threat: The environmentalist.



If most people where asked whether or not a something should be sustainable, reusable, efficient and not harmful to the earth the answer would be yes. On paper there is nothing wrong with something like that, but it is a commonly known fact that this is not the case. The world is at war on this issue.

The war mostly consists of two fronts; there are groups of people who create corporations that make profit of the mass destruction of the environment and a loosely connected group of people that isolate themselves from each other by joining together into even smaller frameworks and structures that become organisations like non-profits. These organisations eventually become dependent on the government for a much more things than they were ideally supposed to be as they represent themselves to be rebels.

The two other parts of this war are the government and the people. The government plays the role of the regulator since it decides if something is a monopoly or not, what can and cannot happen and often acts as the decision maker between the other two.

The people however are under the influence of the corporations and are generally dependent on the government for a great many things. But needless to say they are crucial to the survival of all the others because the corporations, organisations and government are made up of people.

This makes the people the battle ground. All the other parties want them for different reasons, such as profit or power. These people are forced to choose sides if they want any say in the issue as they think there’s no way to help or protect the environment without entering the war. So they give themselves the illusion of free choice by choosing one of the sides.

Anything that happens within the war is ineffective for these reasons.

1)      Any action that is taken can easily be overturned by using law (which is an ineffective system of  maintaining order that can be changed repeatedly) to change the laws they have in place.

2)      The strengths that any of the parts have are being constantly dismantled (elections, branch’s getting destroyed ect…) which enables the groups to work from within.

3)      Members cannot make radical statements about their own groups, because in order to get into a high ranking position someone must constantly sensor himself to say what a person higher up wants to here.

4)      They are all made in the same way (a series of higher rankings that goes up to a Leader, Manger, Boss and so on) so it is commonly thought that there is no other way to run things. No matter what change happens they always still go to the same form of operating things.

If for whatever reason a member of group breaks away from this and goes to a different system where they do not say what they need to, where they do not think what they should, where they relate to people on a deep and true level and where there speeches use more than words to get the message out. They would lose “credibility”, “public support” and so on. If this were to happen then the “cause” would fall apart because the way they set themselves up to be is something dependent on the people and even the government that they claim to fight against.

So what happens then?

If all the parts are locked up in a never ending war what happens?

Some people break away and try to form their own groups free from this mess. But they cannot do it for a very long time because of a great deal of reasons. The biggest is that without support from the core ( the system that sustains this)they need to do everything themselves without any “aid”.

Ade is a thing that all the other parts of the war have in place already. It is money, a true core of dedicated members, connections and a reputation. Without this kind of stuff they are left with the choice of either becoming a true part of the massive game or dealing with everything alone.

Most emphasis is on taking the easy way out which is of course is number one, not because it is naturally easer but because it the other option is made harder by the core itself. If they take the much harder route then they must depend on what they have. That means that the only tools in their possession are the ones that are completely under their control and that in and of itself is not allot. But that is not it. They also need to deal with what is out of there control.

All members of the war are unaware of what they are really doing to everyone else. That means that they use group manipulation, emotions, people’s weaknesses and plenty more to their advantage without even knowing it. But “unofficial” groups do not have everything in place for this to happen so instead of all this happening to their advantage everything goes haywire and it all goes wrong.

These are the two main reasons that “independent” things cannot happen. There are of course a rare number of things that take off but never has there been one that has stayed that way for very long.

There is a big picture that everything fits into. However it is something that ends up being destroyed by fear. Fear of what? The answer is of everything that has not been experienced in a controlled way.

A big example is the violation of both spoken and unspoken laws. From this destruction of the big picture comes a bunch of smaller causes like Environmentalism and from this comes another fear, that is of what they cannot control and that alone destroys the cause.

The overcoming of this fear is the first true step in the right direction. But what are the obstacles that stand in the way? Not even the core itself try’s to stop it. Because pushing fear of the unknown still is incomprehensible (and that is what causes fear). The answer is it is made impossible; everything that is in place is a defence mechanism for prevention of this fear.

So the only way for someone to change this is to be the impossible, use it, feel it and understand it. The most powerful weapon that can be used is the unusable. You cannot use something because something is part of the core. In the impossibility’s of nature there are plenty of tools that it can use to help itself. By being with nature you help it in a more affective way that a protest, when you show nature how to help itself it is better than telling the government to “save” it.

Being with nature is the most effective way to free it. Each time you do it the more you start to realise that it is freeing you more than you are freeing it.
