Introduction

A few years ago while relaxing on the beach I was struck by the thought of why we needed money. The more I pondered, the more certain I was that money is not required for a human to survive.
I started looking at everything we did and wondered why we engage ourselves in acquiring material things. It became an obsession to engage the complete stranger and friends about how we can live on Earth without money. A lot of people agreed with the concept and some just laughed (a lot did).

The idea of writing a book started popping up and being a professional procrastinator you can guess how far the book has progressed. Blogging seemed the ideal way to go. Hopefully I can compile all the posts into a book.

While researching about blogging it struck me that I could set up a project. The Internet was the ideal place to start as a number of Internet sons and daughters believe in the free society. This blog is a project to “Free Our Earth”. Being an Earthling you qualify for a lifetime membership.

I’m certain that if we remove our dependence on money to survive then the following can be avoided.
THE TRUTH ABOUT NATURE: HOW TO SAVE THE WORLD: "'Human beings and the natural world are on a collision course. No more than one or a few decades remain before the chance to avert the threats we now confront will be lost and the prospects for humanity immeasurably diminished. A great change in our stewardship of the Earth and life on it is required if vast human misery is to be avoided and our global home on this planet is not to be irretrievably mutilated.'"

So how do we save the Earth and hence avoid our extinction?  The answer is money or rather the removal of it from our lifestyle. Don’t worry we have everything to gain by losing materialism.

We humans rely totally on money to survive. All our actions to create money have a direct impact on Earth, our natural life support system. All organisms obtain food, air and water to survive. We have added to survival, money. Does money add value to the human life without impacting on Nature? Every one of our actions is a contributing factor to the epidemic that we have become and we are much more powerful than Aids.

Just keep in mind.
