Down by the port houses has a nice vibe and I fell in love with white port

Next Saturday Mushmore inaugurating the Evolution House starts a new beginning. Life is made of new beginnings, made of cycles recycling the best of the previous, towards a new even more powerful.

These are difficult times. Carl Sagan predicted the probability of human self-extinction about 30-40 years ago. Stephen Hawkins, Frank Fenner, Edward Wilson, Paul Ehrlich, Guy McPherson and so many others have been saying the same thing for the past 10 to 20 years. 

Nuclear warfare, artificial intelligence, climate change, mass collapse of natural resources due to extinction of biodiversity.

We live in the days of the #OccupySchools movement. Here in Portugal, most of the public opinion says they are exaggerated. Fossil companies profits don't seem to be exaggerated, massive pharmaceutical profits with pandemics like cancer, diabetes, respiratory diseases don't seem exaggerated, massive political and state corruption doesn't seem exaggerated, the massive pollution of Air, Water and Soil, nothing seems to be so exaggerated like some desperate boys glued to the ground, hoping to live to the same age as today's decision makers.

All these young people want, is to be able to grow old healthy...

For them Mushmore Co-op is changing for and for them, Evolution, our Agroecological support service, is also changing. For and for them we are starting a new cycle, opening up a new space for them, their parents and grandparents to meet, learn and participate in building a new beginning for all of us.

This is why we return to Environmental Education. This is why we put all our winnings into this Project Land, free from market pressures, corporate restrictions, but fundamentally open to all climate actors like entrepreneurs, polluters, politicians and all types of political, economic and social deciders.

No matter your background, no matter your past.

If Rwanda did it, we will too. If South Africans and Chileans did it, we will do it too. As the Palestinians and Israelis will, as Ukrainians and Russians will have to too.

We have no choice but to Unite. We have no other possible future but to achieve the impossible for science: the ability to survive ourselves, the superhuman power to overcome our greed, the higher spiritual purpose to go beyond our attachment to fear of losing.

Mushmore is embracing this course with all of its might, without looking back or turning back, burning all the bridges behind that would allow us to escape, regressing. Step by step, we will be More, Mush More, many more, day after day, winning each defeat, overcoming each obstacle. 

We have an incredible journey ahead of us, the ultimate Survival Journey and making the impossible a reality. With you, with them, one by one, million by million, until we finally become one Humanity only, with the Goodness necessary to achieve a Planetity only, in communion with all the Biodiversity of this Ecosystem all sustain us.
