Many who listen to this audiobook will dismiss it as fiction. But a few will recognize that every word here is true. This may be one of the last books written under the U.S. Constitution and the grant of freedoms were given under the First Amendment, including both freedom of religion and freedom of speech. In future generations, this book will be suppressed if the forces of darkness succeed with their plan to destroy the United States as we have known it since 1776. I am going to lay out the plan in the first chapter. Subsequent chapters will provide supporting evidence for the claims made in the first chapter. I have decided to keep this book short such that it can be listen to in a few hours. For this reason, much of the supporting documentation will be abbreviated, with some material mentioned only by reference to other published works. All I ask of you is to listen with an open mind. At worst, you will have the experience of listening to a concept for a novel, or a movie. Those who understand will experience fear, especially if it is listened to by those who have launched the Satanic plan described in these pages. But I vouch that every word I speak here will be true and fully verifiable, but most likely only in retrospect – after the events I describe herein have taken place. I wrote this book in the firm belief that we can prevent these events from happening. But a people who have abandoned God will only screech in derision when reading these words, realizing only too late their delusions.

Ecosystems require balance to survive, and when that balance is compromised, as in the extinction of a resource or a species, disaster can fall onto the system as a whole. This vital management of resources can be seen in economic systems, as well. A healthy ecosystem is like a healthy economy, with competing mechanics inadvertently working in concert to sustain itself. In both of these worlds, we observe that when a healthy distribution of resources is achieved, systems can not only function, but flourish. The United States’ recycling system has the potential to create over one million new jobs and remove a massive amount of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. A functional recycling system can also save money by providing manufacturers with high quality materials to generate new items. However, this potential has yet to be embraced. Unlike the layers of systems seen in a thriving and healthy forest, our recycling system is bottlenecked, clustered, and contaminated. How can the United States – one of the leading nations on innovation and technology – lag behind in the most obvious of resource recovery systems? Where in the history of recycling did we veer so far off course as to continue hovering at a dismal 34% recycling rate, while other nations have rates double that or more? In the years following World War II there was a rise in recycling efforts but in recent years there has been a great decline. Americans want to recycle, and to know that their actions make a difference. They want confirmation that their time spent sorting recyclables from trash isn’t wasted. But while we see many efforts to support recycling much of our waste still ends up in landfills. Throughout Reduce, Reuse, Re-imagine, Beth Porter provides a great resources about recycling, explaining the complexity, guiding individual action, and contextualizing its history. This book reveals how we arrived at this state of dysfunction, and what steps we need to employ to be an active participant in strengthening our recycling system. Nature knows how to recycle itself, decomposing waste back into the soil to continue the circle of growth. We should follow its lead.

« Où passe l'argent des femmes, celui qu'elles ont et celui qu'elles n'auront jamais ? À force d'écrire sur la vie des femmes, leur travail, leurs enfants, leur corps, leur vie affective, leur argent depuis des années, j'ai réalisé tout ce que l'idéal du couple hétéronormé leur coûtait. Et me suis demandé : le couple est-il une arnaque ?J'ai voulu faire la grande addition : avant, pendant et après le couple et voir ce qu'elle révélait de la condition des femmes. J'ai réfléchi à l'argent et au temps investis dans la beauté, la contraception, la séduction, à la façon dont les couples gèrent leur budget et répartissent leurs dépenses, aux vies professionnelles si souvent freinées au nom de la famille, au temps altruiste, non rémunéré et non reconnu passé au soin du foyer et à la gratitude qu'elles récoltaient après une rupture ou un veuvage.Plus je soulevais le sujet de l'argent – encore tabou dans le royaume du don de soi qu'est l'amour –, plus je découvrais une somme importante de calculs défavorables aux femmes. J'ai aussi découvert que la logique même de l'État les appauvrit et, loin de les émanciper, les maintient dans un patriarcat décomplexé.Aussi, ce ne sont pas seulement les hommes qui ont une dette envers elles, c'est la société tout entière. Ensemble, il est temps de reconnaître leurs dévotions invisibles, et le bénéfice qu'en tirent les autres. Et de se demander : dans quels autres accomplissements, vers quelle émancipation n'investissons-nous pas ce prix à payer ? »

Build a better society through happiness policyBuild a better society through happiness policyThomas Jefferson said that “the purpose of government is to enable the people of a nation to live in safety and happiness.” Yet only now, 270 years later, is the happiness of citizens starting to be taken seriously as the purpose of government. While happiness science is advancing rapidly, and governments and organizations are creating indices for measuring happiness, there is little practical information on how to create policy to advance happiness. Drawing from a deep well of expertise and experience, The Happiness Policy Handbook is the first step-by-step guide for integrating happiness into government policy at all levels. Coverage includes: A concise background on happiness science, indices and indicators, and happiness in public policy Tools for formulating happiness policy and integrating happiness into administrative functions A concept menu of happiness policies Communicating happiness policy objectives to media and engaging with the community A happiness policy screening tool for evaluating the happiness contribution of any policy Policy perspectives from seasoned experts across sectors. The Happiness Policy Handbook is the essential resource for policymakers and professionals working to integrate happiness and well-being into governmental processes and institutions.
