well i live over by light goes out on me with an insulin i i woke up about three weeks ago and feeling pretty disenchanted with a lot of the discourse that's going on in this country right now under reasonable discourse that seems to be absent critical thinking skills talk about president obama being a communist talk about death committees on his health care proposals twenty five to thirty percent of this country that still lionized george bush and dick cheney and feel that sarah palin's actually a viable presidential candidate in no twelve and i felt that there were on the left there was an absence of absence of voices of reason and voices that were willing to counter this  vociferous twenty five to thirty percent that i feel are doing serious damage to our country and and aims of world peace and and reconciling people that are being separated for for false reasons you know separating people by country of national origin or religious preference or gender or age or sexual preference when the truth is we should all be coming together and recognizing that we were members of humanity and someone asked me a few weeks ago if my family was supporting this and i explained that i have seven billion brothers and sisters drawing breath on the planet and by the time my thirty two day fast is over i know that there will be family supporting me all over the world september twenty first is recognized around the world is an international day of peace and course there isn't peace in the world and that calendar day for most even those that are aware it's nothing more than a footnote and i want to try to be a catalyst to make that day have more meaning it's also the equinox it's also the last day of ramadan the muslim fasting holiday i began this fast on august twenty first not because i'm a muslim i'm a christian that just converted to buddhism but out of respect for all  faiths what i wanted was a moment of in time synchronized on the planet at twelve noon greenwich mean time that would be five am pacific standard time for all people agnostic atheists muslims jews hindus christians buddhists to come together and offer a moment of quiet or contemplation or meditation or prayer for world peace were a large group of buddhist monks that meditated for peace in washington d c and there was a significant measurable drop in the crime rate in washington d c subsequent to that mass meditation so imagine if hundreds of millions or more think large imagine of billions of people on the planet at the same moment in time gave focused energy towards world peace you could literally
of the minnesota youth environmental network and yeah i'm in a program of the will to your foundation i think it's really important that high schoolers be here in particular because we're not able to vote yet and we also go to high schools rather than college do so it's often harder for us to you know organize among ourselves and we're also often much more intimidated by like the political system or the idea of organizing large groups or gas or wind or whatever we have right now we have over eighty kids inside for across a high school students college students learning about the issues and getting prepared to lobby their legislators for a clean and just energy future in minnesota and then really  be inheriting these policies so you want to make sure that we are telling our legislators that we can do better that's there solar energy this impacts their future and that this is something that future generations want is the technology t what a solar energy standard is it's really it's a market it's a ten percent of our power by twenty thirty would be a market companies would come in and sell products of our state and by creating that market the prices come down dramatically creates a funny mechanism so it'll make it easier for homeowners businesses and other folks in our state to be able to install solar last week we saw over forty thousand people in d c calling on president obama to move forward on climate issues and this week we have over one hundred people here at the capitol calling on our leaders to do the nitty gritty with that and  the rubber to the road in making an impact on these issues and addressing climate change this is a forty percent by twenty thirty renewable energy standard it's essentially a requirement that utilities procure a certain amount of their electricity from renewable technologies by twenty thirty we have an incredible wind resource it's capable of developing over several times over what we actually use electricity in minnesota and we have an incredible solar resources well and so we need to move towards developing those technologies and then  benefits and the jobs that come from that i think it's really important that high schoolers be here at the capitol today i'm just so that we can make sure that we have a voice or even if we can't vote i know that we're definitely empowered to make a difference in our political system regardless

it is sixteen hundred twenty six along the rocky new england coast there are several new settlements it's a small community numbering scarcely more than thirty people robert plant here is a fisherman he built this the fireplace doesn't always give adequate heat especially when there is sickening in the house sickness that may be very serious today as always there's a firm schedule of work ahead for the bachelors and the entire community it's time for mr fox and oliver to set out for the field their clearing is just over beyond this ridge of rocks there is a good view of the ocean from the red and mr fox and oliver are glad to see their neighbors hauling in a plentiful catch a fish food from the sea food from the land that the settlement will need both when winter comes the first coming along well thanks partly to the indians who abandoned some cleared land in these parts even before the settlers came the sound of ripening corn makes john fox feel confident it makes him eager to clear the ground for larger planting it isn't easy this clearing of a wilderness it isn't easy removing the stones from the rocky new england soil but it makes a difference when you're building something new jason here repairing the roof of the bark wigwam had a far more comfortable house in dorchester anglin but this is a new home in a new line and it makes a difference grows and harvest his own tobacco takes as much satisfaction in his small crop as do the big plantation owners of virginia far down the coast to the south that's in the field and in the home if it be that i will strong straight boards for house others are making shingles for some of the better homes jingles but from logs by hand and shaped by skilful artis
