GrowthBusters is an organisation very much aligned with the aims of the Pachacuti Project - seeking to shift the mass paradigm through the screen medium. With a feature length documentary released in the latter part of 2011, the GrowthBusters' team are putting in a marathon effort to bring the real realities of our modern society to the silver screen.  There are many ways they can be helped.

Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) is perhaps USA's most effective environmental action group, combining the grassroots power of 1.3 million members and online activists with the courtroom clout and expertise of more than 350 lawyers, scientists and other professionals. It draws some of its energy from the involvement of highly influential figures in the entertainment industry.

 

 

The Permaculture movement is a highly respected international authority on the philosophy and methods of sustainable living, and perhaps the single best source of information and ideas on self sufficiency. Originating in Australia several decades ago, it now has a large international membership and is active in many countries. Whether you want simply to advance your personal knowledge and skills on the subject of sustainability or to devote your time to helping the world's needy become more independent, you could do worse than to study and practise within the Permaculture organisation.

 

 

 

Greenpeace is an independent global campaigning organisation that acts to change attitudes and behaviour, to protect and conserve the environment and to promote peace.

The Fair Trade movement is an emerging force for social good and it's easy to help it flourish. Whether you are an indvidual stocking the pantry or a business stocking your shelves, simply by modifying your buying habits you can do something constructive to help opressed farmers and producers the world over to escape the corporate yoke.

 

 

Willing Workers on Organic Farms is a great low-cost way to get hands-on experience in organic farming. Work for your board and lodging while you learn. It could just as easily mean a Wonderful Way Of Organizing Farmstays.
