Urgent Need to Green All Industrialization Globally

Contemplate what industrialization allows to come into the environment from the individuals who own and/or control the use of that industrialization:

Israel’s targets included a 25% reduction of its 2005 greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 – limiting residents to 7.7 tons of carbon dioxide per capita. The government’s plan also involved making renewable energy resources responsible for 17% of the country’s electricity usage by 2030, as well as reducing overall electricity consumption by the same percentage. The targets also included a 20% decrease in private vehicle usage.

My thinking is, don't blame the nations as much as the ecologically TRAGIC state of industrialization, which requires MUCH more greening globally.  Currently, industrialization is used for privately-controlled profits; whatever the rhetoric, private advantage is ADVANTAGED by currently ownership of industrialization.

If the public were not so negatively impacted by its use, such a condition MIGHT be tolerable; however, because the general public worldwide IS so negatively impacted by the use of industrializaed technologies in their currently 'un-greened' state, mere 'public buy-in' to their use (as in cellphone, computer, A/C, and vehicular use do NOT excuse the perpetuation of their unmitigated use without massively-funded and staffer programs to green those currently-tragic technologies and to migitage the harms that their widespread use cause to lots and lots of vulnerable persons, both human AND nonhuman.

Time is short.  I would be interested (ONLY) in USEFUL and HISTORICALLY CONSTRUCTIVE comments on how we can move forward with greening all industrialization for life on this planet Earth.

Universalizing Veggie Pride Parade across every continent, in every major population center on the planet

I want to see Veggie Pride Parades in EVERY major North American and European City would be GREAT !!! Just recruit local volunteers and provide volunteer staffing backbone to indigenous leadership, as we saw Pamela Rice do in NYC. It's POSSIBLE to see such a movement in every major population center on the planet, followed by annual off-season vegetarian food fairs. Earthsave organizers have already said that it's such a huge undertaking, so hopefully one day, but ... Not only does it 'get the word out', but it's a way to reward ALL those still-living and yet unsung heroes and heroines who have given courageously and selflessly through the decades and generations to make our PRESENT state of vegetarian and vegan awareness possible - and to tap yet-untapped resources in the historic struggle to put off the old ways that degrade life and society, and move together towards a brighter - and healthier and greener - future. I think we COULD outline or list the STEPS required to get to that point, which could include, I'd suggest (in addition to making that list)  a manual of documentation on 'How to set up a Veggie Pride Parade' in YOUR city - probably commissioned by Pamela Rice of NYC, who does this annually, who could oversee the final product, or end product; this could be hosted at an IVU website, as VUNA hosts 'How to start a local vegetarian group' a frank discussion about the obstacles, the challenges and potentials, the pros and cons, etc. of doing this sort of thing; ideological challenges likely come from the abolitionists, who think that promoting anything OTHER than the moral and legal RIGHTS of all persons is 'getting in bed with the devil' (and promoting something which affirms evildoers freedom, rights, and powers to continue doing evil, as are welfarism and libertarianism, etc.) speculating about possible resources for doing this, including what social groups (in cultural anthropology, we discuss this in terms of 'the social sources' of some value, activity, energy, or potentials) talking this up on the Internet among vegetarian lists (cross-posting the IDEA that it could be done in major urban population centers) establishing an e-mail list - a public list perhaps at Yahoo Groups, where resources and discussion could take place among SERIOUS contributions, but membership should be controlled and postings moderated. Let's have some discussion on this. Maynard Maynard S.
