(Before It's News)

change“Be the change you want to see in the world.” A  coined statement given to us by Mahatma Ghandi. A statement that resonates with so many people today as the world continues to “wake up” to new information about multiple discoveries that are shifting the perception of the masses with regards to what’s really happening on the planet , and how we can change it.

As a result of humanity identifying various problems that our planet is currently facing, a number of solutions have been presented, yet most continually fail to be implemented. As we’ve seen throughout human history, these things do take time. Today, new technologies have been developed that could replace fossil fuels, whether it be solar powered, zero point energy or something else. Hemp could be used to manufacture bottles, paper and thousands of other “necessities” that could be made without destroying the planet and destroying the rain forests. The point being, solutions are seemingly readily available, and it’s unfortunate that they always have to go through a long process of approval and countless lengths of red tape before they see the light of day.

Another great example of world change is Genetically Modified foods and the pesticides that go along with them. Over the past few years, millions of people all over the world have opposed the manufacture of these foods and pesticides, and a number of studies have surfaced showing their potential dangers to both human health and the environment. This is why so many countries across the planet have completely banned or put severe restrictions on them. As a result of new information coming to light, more and more people are no longer purchasing this food, they are not participating and by doing so, this acts as one example -out of many -of “being the change.”
