Sustainable Living: Rural America

Nothing like a 10 mile ride to town.

Transition Towns has created a plan to transform our communities to live sustainably for years to come. Their plan to build community around the organic production of food. Their concepts won't happen overnight, rather they'll move toward these goals slowly, with timeframes in place.

The following video presents the work of a small group of people, but it is still fairly mindful of what will be done. 2050 is apparently the target year the U.N. hopes to have their Agenda 21 plan in place. A comment is made in the video about the rural areas transforming and will serve the cities with food. This is also true, according to this article. Innocuous speech is used in the executive order, but the author already knows the direction Agenda 21 is taking the world.

Transition Towns: Communism with a Smile

Many vital Communitarian concepts have been wrapped up within the "Transition Movement". The Transition Movement is reported to be a grassroots, community-driven response to overpopulation and consumption, peak oil, climate change, and declining resources. [1] The solutions being introduced in the Transition Movement are being presented as the ideas of two concerned individuals. Is this truly a movement to save the planet by these two men, or is there a more powerful force driving these Transition Towns initiatives?

The Transition Network, is an UK-based organization that supports the international Transition Towns Movement. It is a growing international network of "transition" towns, cities, islands, and hamlets working to wean themselves from a dependence on oil, foreign or otherwise, as well as other finite resources. [2] The message of the movement is that each town (a collective) see that we each have a part in what occurs on our planet in the future. If we don't take personal action, we'll be headed for huge repercussions.

It is through this network effort that a global village is being created to devise common ground amongst its citizens, and an interdependence. More importantly, it is a movement that will enable globalists to transition sovereign nations into a world government. It provides them an opportunity to incorporate global policing, data gathering, create national IDs, population control, restraint to personal freedom, and introduce World Democracy.

Transition Teams
In the following video, Transition team members talk about their vision of the environmentally friendly city they hope to live in. Note how they go from idealistic goals being motivated by our present freedom, to unrealistic goals that will be implemented then enforced.

In the video, they discussed:

• Quieter and cleaner world to live in
• It will be less stressful
• More multi-use spaces
• Work from home
• Less travel
• Less cars
• Locally manufactured goods, like shoes.
• Upcycling goods that are no longer needed.
• We will be producer/consumers - meaning we'll be growing our own food, along with those in the community.
• We'll have local energy production
• Restore lost self sufficiency skills
• Equal share of work (Communism stands for equal sharing of work, according to the benefits and abilities.)
• More poverty, because money will disappear
• Decisions by the group (a commune concept) (Don't miss comments below about sharing of ideas.)

This sugar-coated view of the world is the concept of Rob Hopkins and Ben Brangwyn, the co-founders of Transition Network. They make it seem that we all have to take this bitter pill, but it can be a positive thing. Some of these points are Communism with a smile. They want you to feel good about the changes, even though it is taking us back to the Middle Ages, where we must be tied to the land.

The Founders
The face of Transition U.S. is primarily Rob Hopkins, who is also part of Transition Network and their pilot project Transition Towns Totnes. He is an environmentalist, the winner of the 2008 Schumacher Award, and a Fellow of Ashoka and the Post Carbon Institute. He served 3 years as a Trustee of the Soil Association, and was named by the Independent UK newspaper as one of the UK’s top 100 environmentalists.[3]Rob is also the author of the Transition Handbook, the guide being used in hundreds of communities around the world that is leading them into a communitarian lifestyle - based on several big lies.

Rob Hopkins in Totnes

The following video of Rob is from a 2009 TEDTalks. From 11:00 on the counter, you will hear how fun and creative these Transition Towns community meetings are, and that the group (collective) get to decide the future of their town (instead of being decided by the elected elite).

Following the Money Trail

The financial supporters of Transition U.S. leads to some organizations like: Post Carbon Institute, NetSpeed Learning Solutions, GaiaHost Collective, Awakening the Dreamer Initiative, and the Business Alliance for Local Living Economies. Organizations like Transition would typically be funded by one of the globalist elites like: Rockefeller, the MacArthur Foundation, or Ford. There is one connection between Post Carbon Institute and the MacArthur Foundation. Majora Carter, an environmental activist, was recognized and awarded the MacArthur "Genius" Grant. She's a Fellow of both the Post Carbon Institute and the MacArthur Foundation. It's likely that the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation  funds the Transition Network through the Post Carbon Institute. Post Carbon Institute has hundreds financial supporters who remain unnamed.

U.N. Connections
The organization that takes the main responsibility for advancing the Transition Town movement is the U.N.'s Agenda 21. The founder of the Earth Charter and Agenda 21 are both the handiwork of Maurice Strong, a Communitarian. As you will see on the Transition Network webpage, the Local Agenda 21, in this case Dorset Agenda 21, and Transition Towns, work together as one.

As you will see in the following illustration, each locality has it's own local and regional Agenda 21.So it is feasible to say that this is how the Transition Town Movement has been able to gain so much support and cooperation. It reveals that the Transition Movement isn't so grassroots after all.

 

Drinking the Peter Drucker Kool Aid

Our world has been programmed, on the most part, to accept the lie of global warming. Some know that they are furthering the plan for totalitarian control, while others trust what they are being told.

As you will see in the Transition Portland, it is through the shared decision-making that they are able to get the full cooperation of the community. They don't come into the community and tell them what needs to be done, but allow them to be a part of the decision-making. This is a management style of Total Quality Management, the invention of Peter Drucker, also a Communitarian. He has created this community-based global management system, which networks with the Church. As you recall, Peter Drucker was responsible for the Church Growth Movement, a plan to incorporate the Church as a part of the antichrist system.

Through the community effort in Whatcom County, Washington, they are creating an opportunity for a "new world". Do you get the idea that mainly young hippies, old and new, are running this?

Conclusion
God can use the environmental movement to teach us to respect and enjoy nature. But since most environmentalists reject the biblical Creator, we need to filter everything they tell us through biblical truth. If we say that the Earth is perishing, we also say that God didn't provide a planet that would support His creation, and that He didn't provide what we need when He told us to be fruitful and multiply. It's all a diversion to nature worship. Christianity is a faith that has set humans apart from nature and stripped nature of its sacred qualities.

 Communitarian teachings.

 "Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator..." Romans 1:25

When men began to worship the creation instead of the Creator, the wrath of God was revealed.  As societies begin again to turn from the truth of the creation and worship nature, "Mother Earth", or any other deceiving spirit, the evil and deception in their new religion will be made evident by God's response.

The ICSD is a Jerusalem-based organization of inter-religious leaders who promote environmental consciousness and responsibility together. Through their Seminary Students Sustainability Program, Muslim, Christian and Jewish students learn side-by-side about sustainability and co-existence.

Tony Blair once said that faith is inextricably linked to interdependence. The religion of the New World Order is furthering their cause through the global apostate church and false religions by the use of the global warming boogy man.

The Trickle Down Effect
The outcome of meetings like this have a trickle-down effect. The following video is an example of one of the programs being generated by the corporate church. A type of communitarian "transition meeting" is taking place in churches. Energy conservation is one of the goals of these meetings, which is a good thing, but misleading congregations about global warming is another issue. As you will see, churches are getting on the sustainability bandwagon.

(Huffington Post link)

It is interesting to note that the organization that was featured, is part of the Interreligious Eco-Justice Network. They are also promoting community gardens. Their website states that they are doing this because of the:

"...environmental impact of huge mechanized farms and the high carbon emissions embedded in transporting the food we eat; we can do better!

We have gathered our network and allies for two annual conferences called simply Food and Faith to share and support faith-community based food and garden initiatives. We now know of several Sunday schools which have a gardening curriculum.  We have dozens of congregations supporting local agriculture through CSA’s and dozens more which are growing and donating food to food pantries around the state."

The page for sustainable eating goes into detail concerning why it is better to eat local, than to depend upon a system that creates too much strain on the environment, and encourages vegetarianism.

Communitarian ideology is continuing to be peddled in the Church, and congregations are excited about it. I'm presently taking a Master Gardeners course offered through the county extension office, and some of the participants are involved with community gardens. One woman told me that during the summer, members get to take vegetables home every Sunday. This is great, but none of them suspect what is being planned for their future. They are like gentle lambs being led to slaughter.

Transition to Communitarianism: Community Gardening

There are many people who have been getting excited about some of the new ideas being wheeled-out by the government to support a sustainable lifestyle. They feel many of these ideas are past due, and that they will help our planet become a better place to live. Many of these plans make sense, but many of them are just part of a cunning plan that is motivated by a false premise. It's outcome may well be insidious.

Communities across the world are gearing up for transition to live in green cities, which will force everyone to be a part of this new lifestyle. Meetings are being held and preparation are being made. This is a process designed to enable communities to prepare for limited resources in the future. It's primary goal is to make each community aware of its carbon footprint, and develop initiatives to help lessen it.

Agenda 21 is alive and well in communities that are actively promoting healthy communities through sustainable agriculture and community gardens; encouraging a shift away from the current free market driven food system to a new locally-focused, public sustainable food system.[1]


(YouTube link)

It is being promoted in subtle ways through the media, churches, cities, businesses, and especially the USDA. More and more people are embracing this new way of thinking about their future. To support this effort, and to be supportive of the Earth Charter, the USDA launched an effort in 2009 called "The People's Garden".[2]

The People's Garden initiative is an effort by USDA which challenges its employees to establish gardens at USDA facilities worldwide and help communities create gardens.


(YouTube link)

A People's Garden can vary in size and type, but all have a common purpose - to help the community they are within, so they can help develop a healthy lifestyle, community, and sustainable environment.

To start a People's Gardens in a community, groups are being asked to register their gardens in the new People's Garden database, a tool for USDA partners to showcase their People's Gardens on an interactive map. During 2011, thousands of USDA employees and partners heeded Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack's call to give back to their communities by volunteering their time to participate in the department-wide People's Garden initiative.[3] This has been so popular, that there are an estimated 18,000 community gardens have been created throughout the U.S. and Canada. [4]

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack

Entering a 'New Age'

In the PBS series titled Growing a Greener World, one episode focused on the resurgence of the "victory garden". The guest on the program stated that "just ten days after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the USDA convened a National War Garden Defense Conference to organize the WWII Victory Garden program, which became one of the most iconic wartime mobilization efforts in either war. This time Americans were encouraged to garden more for unity and service to the nation as a morale booster for troops and those at home."

 Note the French revolutionary cap of the patriotic gardener.

In a Natural News article, the author writes this about the renewed interest in victory gardens:

"A victory garden reflects a new way of thinking, a new vision and an explosion of understanding about how to achieve happiness and security in life...Whoever is able to achieve a victory garden will be a beacon shining a light for others. In a time when famine threatens for so many, the victory garden demonstrates a new way the earth can be made more plentiful. All it takes is a vision. The human race can come to be parasites on the planet, or we can come to a new enlightenment. The choice is ours."

This statement uses mind control techniques by attempting to make the reader believe he will be a hero if he goes along with the victory garden community program, and a human parasite if he doesn't.

In another propaganda piece by Growing a Greener World, they discussed community gardens. They promoted it as a positive move, and mentioning that we can't trust where are food comes from any longer. They present the community garden as being cutting edge, so it will create the interest of young people. 

The Bottom Line
Communitarianism is an ideology that fosters communal bonds. This concept of community is being created because socialism (world democracy), which is the style of government we are transitioning into, embraces collectivism. This social outlook emphasizes the interdependence of every human being. There are Communist governments, which have often use collectivized work activities. If these governments practice agricultural collectivism, they are typically regarded as communist.[6]

At this point in time, it appears that the U.S. will fully return to local community farming. When you consider the hints dropped in this segment of Growing a Greener World, and the prototype of our future at Earth University in Costa Rica, you have to wonder if the U.S. is transitioning to locally grown.

It is my belief, and I have have no proof, that each of the 10 regions of the country will create their own food. Since President Obama created a Council of Governors  for the 10 regions within the U.S., each region will need to grow their own food. If we are restricted to travel within our region, it would be considered a risk to regional security if food delivery trucks were permitted to crossover regional lines.

 

If this is the plan, as I suspect it is, we should be aware that if regions go through severe droughts, or have problems with disease or destructive insects, they will not have enough food to survive. Perhaps starvation is the way the Elitists plan to take care of that nasty overpopulation problem. The Bible says that in the last days there will be famine, not to mention other terrible events. The enemy of this world will have his way, and it's within view.

Strengthening Community: The Big Scam

Although it may have already been there all along, I've begun to notice how some organizations are making a pitch for community empowerment. The promotion will often suggest that community members share, focus on common purpose, or at least understand and tolerate each others values and attitudes, to create a stronger community.

If you read the two articles on the communitarian transition to collectivism, you'd spot the advertising campaign the YMCA is currently using.

Did you realize that the Young Men's Christian Association was never really Christian? When it was started, they had a Christian exterior, but their roots were ecumenical and globalist from the start. John Mott, the Ys founder, was entangled with Freemasonry; the Rockefeller family; he was involved in the formation of the World Council of Churches (1948); and the early missionary movements - whose goal it was to gain entrance into foreign countries for the purpose of spreading democracy using Imperialism.[1]

Mott favored equal rights, a tenet of Freemasonry, and was instrumental at putting women to work during World War I. Under President Wilson, Mott became general secretary of the National War Work Council [1]. Although it may have been necessary to put women to work in certain areas of the country, it was the beginning of the breakdown of the family in the U.S..

Mott's first book, Strategic Points in the World's Conquest, reported this first international journey and established Mott as an ecumenical statesman. His evangelistic visits to Christian campus's emphasized dedication to Christ, personal purity and above all, missionary service. [2] Christian institutions were flooded with John D. Rockefeller's communist money to teach their liberal theology - the social gospel. The Rockefeller family and other powerful "change agents" fueled the missionary movement. It was an attempt of elites to manipulate honest men, and they weren't able to see through their plan of world conquest.

As you have seen through their ad campaign, the YMCA has continued its effort to socially engineer communities. They are assisting in furthering the communitarian plan to mold America into a collectivist society.

"And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not." 2 Peter 2:2,3

Communitarianism: Collectivist Values in Transition - Part 2

Elite collectivist thinkers have a theory that individual rights have broken down the moral fiber of society.[1] Collectivists, through the Communitarian agenda, desire to create a new society within the shell of the old, with the philosophy of the new.

Communitarianism, also known as the Third Way:

• is described as social cohesion that finds common ground, and is similar to nationalistic communism, or various forms of authoritarianism. 
• Communitarian Elites believe that the rights of the individual must be balanced against the interests of society as a whole, which is detrimental to individual liberty. 
• Communitarianism embodies a vision of a social order that encourages communal bonds. 
• Both Democrats and Republicans push Communitarian policies, [2][3]

American sociologist and educator Amitai Etzioni was one of the prominent founders of this newly shaped philosophy. He believes that individuals have been given too much freedom and not enough responsibilities. Etzioni and other communitarians are in favor of more obligations and fewer rights.[4]They desire the community to live up to the basic principle of the good society. But as you will learn, it will only be good for those in charge.

 President Obama is a communitarian and longtime admirer of Dr. Etizioni.

Newt Gingrich is an admirer of Alvin Toppler, the founder of another philosophy similar to Etizioni's called the Third Wave. 

Documented Evidence
In the following videos, you will get a glimpse of this good society. Amitai Etizioni, a globalist, discusses the foundations of communitarianism. He explains his ideas of finding a balance between individual rights and the responsibilities to community. He desires a Democracy (not a Republic), a new Bill of Rights, and a sense of mutual tolerance. Etizioni says that if the government gives, then something must be given in return.


(YouTube link)

These ideas may be sound to some, but let's see where the rubber meets the road - individual rights. Amitai Etzioni debates the rights of terrorists with an expert on the U.S. Constitution. You should know that the type of personal rights Etzioni favors isn't any different than a socialist/communist country. I can still recall some of the socialist countries I traveled through during my time in the military. We were warned about countries whose governments could arrest you, throw you in jail, and then throw away the key with no hearing or trial. Etzioni is advocating the same throwing away the key.


(YouTube link)

These are his views on censorship of hate speech. He believes that planning a crime is same as committing it.


(YouTube link)

Lastly - his views of the National ID. Etzioni says we already have it - through our driver's license. The ACLU rep. says there will be a form of internally used passport system. Etzioni views it as being necessary for security.


(YouTube link)

Roots of Communitarianism
Few realize that communitarianism can be traced back to early Roman Catholic monasticism, and more recently to the Catholic Worker movement (for social justice issues and it has Jesuit connections).[5] Based on research recorded on Oxford University Press site:

"In visionary and perfectionist Christian social thought the monastery, conceived of as orderly, simple and harmonious, has often stood as an institutional ideal. In high Anglican and Catholic Christian socialist tradition there is an emphasis on the special role and contribution to the wider world of individuals living in sacramental communities - a sacramental point can also be the base for effective social action. Communion, realized in community, gives individuals in turn a generalizable ideal for social relations - which ideal according to Christian socialists like F.D. Maurice and Thomas Mirfield, could be realized through Socialism. This ideal of community goes hand-in-hand with 'kingdom theology' - the project of realizing the kingdom on God on earth."

All of this fits in with Rick Warren's P.E.A.C.E. Plan and the U.N. Millennial Development goals, where Christians will give their service to world mission projects. It uses the framework once used by the Roman Catholic church, who is actually shaping this. This global mission project is one being put together by the World Council of Churches, who is a participant observer in the civic and religious progress of globalization. This shift has been influencing the thinking of churches and theologians from within its ranks of a global society."[6]

 Rick Warren's plan

A Spiritual Perspective
This system of service and volunteering is a concept similar to the fellowship of Christian believers in Acts 2. We read about the saints selling their possessions and giving the proceeds to those believers in need. They shared meals with one another, their lives were interconnected, and they were single at heart. They drew on the strength Christ gave them.

With this socialism/communitarianism plan, the group works together within a community in a similar manner - but the government takes the place of God. The members of the group are not accountable to their maker, rather the state/federal government. It follows then that if you want to be a member of the group, you must give up your individual rights to gain protection from the group/government.

It is actually an antichrist system, since this group concept is a counterfeit to the real deal. Communitarians borrow ideas not only from Christianity, but also from ancient religions, Plato, Marx, Jefferson, Buber, and Madame Blavatsky.

But it doesn't end there. Amitai Etzioni  wants to use the goals of Christian Reconstructionism and Dominionism to replace the modern criminal code of the United States with Mosaic Law. [6] In turn, the Seven Laws of Noah, a set of moral imperatives that, according to the Talmud, were given by God as a binding set of laws for the "children of Noah" – will be set in place. This will be the final system of law, when it is all said and done. (See this post for more)

The Year 2020
By the year 2020, we will be well on our way to living in a new global community. Nikki Raapana wrote about this in her book "2020: Our Common Destiny". This is what she had to say about communitarianism.


(YouTube link)

Does this coincide with what others in think tanks are saying? Yes, Jeremy Rifkin [7]explains that we are in the middle of a perfect storm. There are three sets of crisis our world is facing, and it is imperative that we get a plan for the future.


(YouTube link)

There are facilitators working in our local communities preparing for the transition into the new world. It isn't only happening in the U.S., but other key countries around the world, as well. The plan is called Vision 2020, it works hand-in-hand with the governments emissions target, and every city is being asked to provide their goals for sustainability. Here is one example of a Vision 2020 plan from Cheshire county, New Hampshire.

 (Click on image to read.)

You will learn that it is all being done under the guise of a sustainable community. As you will see in this site in the UK - it all being done for our well-being. They are pouring money into rebuilding the infrastructure of our cities.  These projects include transportation systems (roads, bridges, highways, public transportation, etc.), sewage system, utility systems (gas, electricity, water treatment and delivery), and its buildings (schools, court houses, sports facilities, and its public and private housing developments). Environmental risks are repaired, energy efficiency and plans for future community agriculture are addressed. Only one community discussed what was going to be required of each citizen, but that will be addressed later - for obvious reasons.

As we draw closer to that time, the Great Transition will take place. Not only will they transition communities, but they will transition every citizen from thinking of as an individual, to having him think about the collective.

In Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Lee Brain addressed a transition session. He also recruited members from the meeting to form the initiating [New Age word] transition team.


(YouTube link)

Conclusion
We can look forward to reform of all types. More food will be grown locally to support local communities, we will largely become vegetarian, and walking and bicycles will become the way to travel. The Elites say it will be for the betterment of humans and the earth, but it is all based upon a lie. This new type of global society will be provided a daily dose of propaganda, and they will be manipulated and controlled. The citizens of this global community will have no voice - the true peace the global government was looking for. The boogeyman of global warming and the need for a sustainable planet lurks behind every change being made. We will be told that our contribution to the group-cause claims will enable us to continue to live on this planet. Just as the Jamestown experiment went bad, so will this one.
