 Dear friends, 

I haven't attended the IPC for some time, but the three that I did attend 
(2nd, 3rd and 4th) were all wonderful events, full of great people working 
for the Earth.  We put our heads together to network for the greater good.  

The elephant in the room is western imperialism and its destruction of the 
Earth and it's cultures.  We need to work together to resist, and to build 
alternatives, rather than fight among ourselves.  

This is important work and we need to get beyond our personality 
disagreements. I think this is more broadly realized by permaculturists in 
the non-westernized countries. They should be in large numbers in India. I 
pray for a productive event.

 You probable think that for one of two reasons: one, you are an 
elephant, two, you don't understand what permaculture is.

The IPC could use a lot less air and more substance but most people 
think it is a show and tell moment leading to a big party. It is those 
with the dog and pony show displays that should be sucking air.

The elephant in the room is western, U.S., Russian, Chinese and European
imperialism and its destruction of the Earth and it's cultures.
Get it right. They are all guilty, especially Russia and China, Goldman
Sucks , Bayer, Monsanto and other polluting ag corporations (Germany).
Did you read what I posted about the Seed Savers Exchange and its founder
Kent Whealy or does that not count?
