Vandana Shiva on Bill Moyers

Just a post to ask everyone to watch this interview by Bill Moyers with Vandana Shiva and read the transcript.  She has said so succinctly what would take me days to say.

In response to the question "But what can I do?"

VANDANA SHIVA: I think first thing is each of us has to daily ask a question, "Where am I complicit in a war against the Earth? Where are my daily actions part of a devastation of the planet and with it, a devastation of the lives of people."

I know she was limited with her time, but what she is saying here could easily be continued to include funneling people into the hands of the pharmaceutical companies and prisons - 2 more large corporations.  It's all connected. 

"We need a new paradigm for living on the earth because the old one is clearly not working."
" you cannot solve the problems you face through the same mindset that caused those problems."

Here is a link to the transcript from a prior interview with Bill Moyers:
