Earthfamilyalpha Contents V

 

Over the weekend, I managed to compile all of the stories in Earthfamilyalpha from the last 17 years. The posts are organized from the present back to that wonderful time in November 2008 that Obama was elected.  This is the Fifth Compilation.

More than 30,000 readers read Earthfamilyalpha this month. That beats last months record.

Readers come from all over the earth: South America, Asia, Europe,  and North America. (in that order this month)

Thank you all.

Year Four Contents

It's still a week or so until the beginning of the fifth year of EFA.

But I had a little time today to compile this year's posts and stories into their catagories and once again, there is a lot here. So if you want to read about climate change, peruse the climate change section. If you want to read about the newest advancements in technology and renewable energy, spend some time in the technology section.

Or if you like, click on the label at the bottom of the story and get an entirely new blog with all of the stories with that label recompiled chronologically.

Once again, SB has contributed significantly with her powerful poetry and keen political view, and Respect is the Hub has graced EFA with his welcomed well considered contributions. Thanks to all of you who have posted your comments and emailed me the stories and pictures that have made this effort so rich.

Our long political dark night is giving way to a new day where the work to remake ourselves, our beliefs, our institutions, our settlements, and our energy systems may now begin.

It is good work if you can get it.

And we are graced to have it.

Earthfamilyalpha Contents IV

This years contents have two new sub-categories with the addition of environmental philosophy, and economic philosophy. Given the economic uncertainty ahead, I suspect there will be plenty of stories and interest in the area. I added environmental because I didn't have a good place to put sustainable stories or stories about the architecture of our human settlements and how we must begin to change them.

This year has lots of remarkable poetry from the Mideast, thanks to SB.

I notice that fiction is a little light, so hopefully we will see a little more of Jeanelle.
