About me: I am faster than the average turtle. I drink a lot of fair trade coffee on a regular basis. Minneapolis and St. Paul are my favorite cities. I like biking on my fixed gear bike through the Twin Cities. I enjoy traveling on a yearly basis. I once crawled to the top of the largest volcano in Central America. I've also crawled around Colombia, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Peru, Sumatra, Dominican Republic, and Mexico. For more personal details check out my website: www.peacecoffee.com
Who I'd like to meet: Bicyclers, fair traders, peace-makers, coffee fanatics, roasters, farmers, musicians, dancers, artists, gardeners, bee keepers, lovers not haters.
Hello. World Peace Before 2021 became YourFriend some time ago. Now I am much more accustomed to how MySpace works. So please forgive me for not 'commenting' until now. My eight-year-old-peace-activist son Axil Kollist's quest for World Peace Before 2021 is gaining momentum! I'm so proud of him. Please embrace him AND his song "World Peace Before 2021" which he performs beautifully. His performance can be seen on MySpace, his webpage www. worldpeacebefore2021. com and/or YouTube (by searching his name Axil Kollist.) It is my intention to post a new video of him singing his song every few months so people can watch his talent grow as impressively as the momentum for his quest! I'm inviting you to contact my son directly too via his email address worldpeacebefore2021@hawaii.rr.com .I'm sharing two photos with you. The first is of my son distributing his free world peace bumperstickers and the second photo is of him singing at Maui's Martin Luther King Jr. Peace Day Festivities in January 08. Very best regards, Axil's mom
February 14th marks the US launch of Fair Trade Certified flowers. This V-Day is very special because for the first time Americans can buy Fair Trade certified flowers and chocolate. Fall in love with Fair Trade and make the pledge to have a Fair Trade Valentine’s Day. Please pass this on to all your Fair Trade Valentines!

ABOUT LIBERTYWALK 2008 The LibertyWalk is a charitable organization that will journey across the eastern United States to create awareness for some of the toughest issues the country is facing.

The money raised during the walk will go towards local charities nationwide. The event will begin on the Fourth of July and end on New Year's Eve, crossing 21 states in 181 days.

Thanks for the add! I've been putting a lot of thought and research into opening a coffee shop here in West Virginia. Would you mind offering some advice when you have the time?

Building a new economy, one that can sustain economic progress, involves phasing out old industries, restructuring existing ones, and creating new ones. This new economy will be powered by renewable sources of energy, will have a more diverse transport system--relying more on rail, buses, and bicycles, and less on cars--and will recycle everything. For example, coal use will be phased out, replaced by efficiency gains in many countries, but also by natural gas, as in the United Kingdom, and by wind power, as in Denmark and Germany.
The world automobile industry will face a modest restructuring as it shifts from the gasoline-powered internal combustion engine to the gas-electric hybrid, the diesel-electric hybrid, plug-in hybrids, or high-efficiency diesel. This will require a retooling of engine plants and the retraining of automotive engineers and automobile mechanics.
The new economy will also bring major new industries, ones that either do not yet exist or are just beginning. Wind electricity generation is one such industry, incorporating three subsidiary industries: turbine manufacturing, installation, and maintenance. Now in its embryonic stage, this promises to become the foundation of the new energy economy. Millions of turbines soon will be converting wind into cheap electricity, becoming part of the landscape, generating income and jobs in rural communities throughout the world.
As wind power emerges as a mainstream low-cost source of electricity, it will spawn another industry--hydrogen production. Once wind turbines are in wide use, there will be a large, unused capacity during the night when electricity use drops.
"The Season" is nearly upon us. When you're in the mood to blast some techno Sugar Plum Fairy, or chill out to Arabian Dance, you know where to find it!
