John A. Crockett’s High Tech Compost and Magic Soil: Interview from Mother Nature's Farms by Willi Paul

Hi Willi,

Great to connect with you.

When I think of R&D, I think of getting answers to practical questions, information essential to responsibly designing a food composting facility. How much forced aeration is “optimal”, how much “force” does it take to move the air through the compost? What is the “optimal” moisture content?

We are delighted that words like "green", "eco-conscious", and "sustainable" have made it into the mainstream business lexicon. It made it easy for us to come out of the green closet. Some specific examples from their studios include the following:

Sacred in Participation: Seek, Reflect, Share, Act, Evaluate (SRSAE) by Willi Paul

As a both a primal and future seeking process, Sacred is interconnectedness and communication with others on Earth, not habitual worshiping of an unseen force “above.” Sacred is a proactive universal search for knowledge and spiritual experience on Earth. Humans are the glue, scribes and story tellers of all that is Sacred. For humans, Sacred is pre-wired and healthy but rapidly fraying in our hearts and minds.

“Can Art Save the World?” LinkedIn.com Discussion: 2/9 - 2/14 2010. Topic Created and Edited for PlanetShifter.com by Willi Paul.

No sure what the IG quote means, so maybe I'm mentally not equipped to answer the question. But I must first ask, and not to be too Clinton-esque about it, what do you mean by "art" and "save" and "world."

Re-splicing the Tribe Myth in LinkedIn by Willi Paul

[ Meet Me on the Equinox by Death Cab for Cutie ]

Do you share my malady of the Future? A strange hang-time for greener values and some mysterious Tribe?

I find myself working in a future time and place that doesn’t exist
It’s hard to collaborate with an empty feeling

“Like Water from Yahweh”:
Recent Poetry by Willi Paul, PlanetShifter.com

Occupation in your Eyes

I am in your micro wave
Melting the North Pole
Calling for the Old Silicon Valley
Charging the new black hole

I am your compost pile
The dark black box in the garage
Spent cartridge in your gun
The billy beer can under the couch

I am your empty pool
The top of the dirt pile in the side yard
Occupation in your eyes
Slime of lost causes and silly intentions

I am dust and wax and spit and tv's last glare
Lost Boston tapes

As I walked away in the wet morning from the first session of the Innovating the Green Economy Conference at the David Brower Center in downtown Berkeley, there were more issues than solutions gurgling in my green pea brain. Consider:
