All around the world, communities, businesses, and even entire countries are making a more conscious effort to cut back on their waste production. The town of Kamikatsu, Japan has recently joined this growing list and, in my opinion, stands as a true inspiration and leader in the zero waste movement.

Home to only 1,700 people, Kamikatsu is a relatively small community which has set the very big goal of becoming completely waste free by the year 2020. The town is already well on their way, with approximately 80% of their current waste being recycled, composted, or reused.

The key was the implementation of a very strict recycling program that requires residents to separate their waste into 34 categories. The task certainly seems tedious and unrealistic, but most community members have now accepted and actively participate in the initiative that was started in 2003.

We will be having a New Moon in Sagittarius on Friday, December 11th at 10:29am Universal Time. New Moons are the beginning of the 29.5 day moon cycle and signal a fresh start for the following month.

This is when there is no light on the Moon, but the beginning of when the light slowly starts to increase again, becoming visible over the following days. This is known as the beginning of the waxing phase, which lasts until the Full Moon and is associated with growth, expansion, and unfoldment.

New Moons are a great time to plant seeds, set intentions, or perform actions in relation to what you would like to grow or manifest over the upcoming cycle. It is best to do this as close to the minute of the New Moon as possible, but it can also be done over the following 24 hours (click here to find out for your time zone).

The Australian prime minister’s chief business adviser is saying that climate change is a ‘ruse’ led by the United Nations to create a new world order under the agency’s control. This statement coincided with a visit from the UN’s top climate negotiator. More on this later in the article. 

Before reading this article, please keep in mind that I am not denying climate change. I am simply presenting information that you will not hear from mainstream media. I wanted to make this article more so about the politicization of climate change science and let people know that if you feel this way, you are not alone.

Climate change is happening and has been for some time now; this is a simple fact and I have no intention of attempting to refute it. What I take issue with is the use of the climate change debate, among other real world problems, for the satisfaction of global elitist agendas. This is far from a mere ‘conspiracy theory,’ it’s an opinion that is backed by evidence in the form of documentation, scientific research, and statements from undeniably credible sources. Again, I am not denying climate change here, just presenting information you will probably never hear from mainstream media.
