Imagine a whole country where the population has a dynamic relationship with their environment - that locally, directly feeds them with the most vital of sustenance - fresh healthy, organic produce – that they grow themselves.Now visualize the largest NZ city with close on 20 co-operative urban gardens doing just that already, with the probability of an extra 100 plus clusters spread across the Auckland landscape in the next 18 months.Community garden oases of verdant health that become the focal point for family, friends and neighbours to grow, meet and share in the spirit of goodwill.

What initially started with the Counties Manukau District Health Board to curtail the spiraling increase in diabetes has led to a pioneering approach to food growing and bettering ones health. This has been to enable local citizens to work in groups or singularly to learn and grow their own healthy food and exercise in a stress free setting to once again live more in tune with community and nature.Listen to this exciting initiative and the profound possibilities of re-greening and gardening of suburbia and across the nation that in maximizing ones health, is also pulling many differing ethnic and cultural groups together to reestablish contact with the earth, community, share information and beat diabetes.GreenplanetFM104.6 Thurs 4th March 8-9amhttp://www.dpt.org.nzhttp://www.dpt.org.nz/CommGarden.html

Around the curve in New Zealand (Part One)Listen to Bruce Lipton talking about the ‘new edge of science’, his experiences in that realm and of the necessity for a massive shift in our belief systems to realize our connectivity to the invisible world, of energy fields, consciousness, quantum physics, the journey of our soul … of spirit, Avatar and specifically, that it is essential for humanity to come into alignment at a very deep level within nature - as community.

Following the current Darwinian line of survival of the fittest, winner takes all, is taking us all (if we remain a semi conscious species) to the abyss. Particularly when the current leadership and business model that is running the present reality has no relationship to the sacredness of being, let alone nature, the source from which we spring.With the “new knowing” that we individually and collectively can actively shape a totally new paradigm and transform human endevour on this, our home planet - is the imperative of the moment! So let’s take an impassioned in-breath, let go of old thought forms and actively be this change.www.BruceLipton.comwww.BeliefBook.comwww.SpontaneousEvolutionBook.com

“Is mining undermining the community in NZ and our global standing?”Denis Tegg, the spokesperson for Coromandel Watchdog of Hauraki. A member of the group since the early 1980s, involved in all components of the campaign - bringing communities together, raising awareness, media, peaceful and non-violent direct action, political lobbying, etc. A lawyer, he lives in Thames.Question: How is it that it only needs the Prime Minister and the Minister for Conservation to say yes to mining? No one else and no Act of Parliament is required!

Gold mining generates huge volumes of hazardous waste (tailings), which is dumped in a tailings dam. The gold is only a tiny proportion of the material extracted, less than 10 parts in one million.The gold is extracted using cyanide, so safe storage of the mine waste poses a serious problem. Waste rock (overburden) that is not processed, as well as the highly toxic processed waste, is hazardous. Processed rock takes up several times more volume once extracted. The tailings stay toxic for thousands of years. The Newmont, Waihi Gold Tailings dam is on a massive scale of the hazardous waste that is generated – 40 million cubic meters.However, it is more complex and serious than this.Coromandel with its high rainfall, sensitive shellfish beds plus its Clean Green overseas tourist image if it starts mining, puts NZ's stature at risk, while the government’s supposed take of less than 5 million dollars per annum in royalties defies logic.What can we as an aware, cohesive community do?Listen to a clear and coherent 50 minute understanding of the issues regarding why we must never desecrate this land, and instead honour it for its natural beauty and diversity. PLUS learn some simple methods of how to take action.www.watchdog.org.nz

Wade Doak is NZ's equivalent to Jacques Cousteau having spent over 50 years as a aquanaut around New Zealand's coastline, interacting underwater with all species, researching the local ocean ecosystems, especially where the land meets the sea and the diverse interactions take place in these environments. Author of a large number of books, films and documentaries, Wade is better known overseas than he is here in NZ. Wade is also a world authority on dolphins having studied and swum with them in the wild and he has traveled extensively overseas sharing his knowledge on these most intelligent of creatures.

Yet, his knowingness on so many levels as to how the ocean systems work and the biota that inhabit them and the urgent need to lock away more areas as reserves and sanctuaries is now an important issue that Wade speaks passionately for. As we gain a greater knowing that our planet is a gigantic living super system that connects all biota into a complex web of life, what are we going to leave future generations is foremost on his mind, as it is becoming for more and more people on this planet today. Listen to an engrossing story of contact with inhabitants of the undersea world. www.wadedoak.com

Here in NZ we are in need of more electricity, we have around 40 dams on some of our largest rivers. These dams are up to 40 to 50 years old, with generators that are based on old technologies.For some unknown reason, the NZ government and the engineers over the last 20 years have not talked about recalibrating the turbines to use higher gearing ratios and more refined hydrodynamic blades and rotational systems to extract another 30% to 40% plus power out of these numerous dams that let the water go after only partially extracting what energy it carries.It is a scandal that we are not being innovative and reinventing ways to use this water that we have harnessed. Where are the visionaries, our brilliant ones, our clever engineers?

However, behind the scenes are gathering groups of people experimenting with high technologies going back as far as Nikola Tesla, Victor Shauberger to John Bedini & others, and what is happening is that experimenters all over the world are now sharing information needed to “open source” the technology of free energy.Paul Larkin is part of a group, who wish to introduce breakthrough technologies that have the power to radically transform our planet & way of life.Free energy motors devices & systems, use a small amount of input power to draw a larger amount from the surrounding environment ... impossible?No ...So long as the energy comes from somewhere this does not violate the laws of physics ... in fact several devices in common use already do this, including fridges, heat pumps & air-conditioning. We can also do this electrically….By redesigning our technology we can create electrical devices such as motors & generators that collect “radiant electricity ”from the “Active Vacuum” or Ether.There is no energy crisis ... there is a crises in consciousness!All we need is the will & consciousness to create a new reality ... which eagerly awaits us.

The new sciences quantum physics and epigenetics are revolutionising our understanding of the link between mind and matter, challenging established scientific theories and prompting a complete re-evaluation of life as we have known it.The significance of this shift in belief is vast in that the original view led to the notion that we are victims of our biology. Whereas the ‘new’ sciences show that we are actually masters of our biology.Bruce has taken his award-winning medical school lectures to the public and is currently a sought after keynote speaker and workshop presenter.

He lectures to conventional and complementary medical professionals and lay audiences about leading-edge science and how it dovetails with mind-body medicine and spiritual principles.He has been heartened by anecdotal reports from hundreds of former audience members who have improved their spiritual, physical and mental well being by applying the principles he discusses in his lectures. He is regarded as one of the leading voices of the new biology.

Dr Bruce Lipton, author of the popular book; Biology of Belief, Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter and Miracles, was awarded 2006’s Best Science Book of the Year.

A mighty shift in how people-power can wrest control away from unconscious central government and place it back in the hands of localised community and conscious consumers is taking place here in Northland, New Zealand.Not since the heady days of the mid 1980’s when localised groups and councils ‘made’ Nuclear Free Zones across this country, have we seen such a resurgence as ordinary and extraordinary NZer’s through dedication and vision, mobilise to make Northland, NZ a GMO Free Zone.

Listen to an impassioned Zelka Grammer on how GE Free Northland with the help of Maori Iwi, localised growers and supporters plus District Councillors are investigating local options for regulating or prohibiting GMO land use in the Northland Peninsular.

The recent High Court ruling that has overturned ERMA's (Environmental Risk Management Authority) decision to accept applications from AgResearch to release GM animals throughout New Zealand is another step towards sanity and keeping NZ’s prized ‘Clean Green’ image from being tarnished by unethical procedures.

Over the last 25 years you may have you witnessed Michael Fleck at many events in NZ be it peace, justice, democracy, environment, complimentary health, the arts and education.If you have, you would have noticed Michael moving easily from person to person and group to group, introducing and reconnecting key players to each other over a very broad spectrum, all within the emerging metaphysical and spiritual paradigm as he weaves us into wholeness within our planet's biosphere.He has also managed touring artist programmes for the Arts Council of New Zealand, produced major conferences on peace and the environment, and organised national and overseas tours for visiting authors and artists, including Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, Rupert Sheldrake, Paul Horn, Elisabet Sahtouris, Hank Wesselman, Barry Brailsford, and Neale Donald Walsch.

Tune in to an interview of what inspires him to continue to bring people together in our quest for solutions to our planet's many increasing challenges and at the same time find wholeness and peace within. www.GoodcompanyPacific.comThis Thursday 10th December 8-9am GreenplanetFM 104.6 Michael Fleck Holistic Global Networker. (However, 1 hour was not enough.)

Pryesh Tavari is a medical doctor and physician born in India and has been in NZ less than a year. He works at the university of Auckland doing a PhD in health informatics.Listen to an inspiring way of using technology to take medicine into the villages and rural areas of India where up to 700 million people are for the first time able to access health and healing information never before foreseen.With both Western allopathic medicine and traditional ayurvedic and alternative and complimentary medicines available, the key is to have women lead by becoming trained and thus empowered to lead their families into both preventative health and community health.

We also learn what it means "to be of service to our fellow man" and the profound understanding of the metaphysical and spiritual that has been embedded for thousand of years across India is now emerging to re energise the core of our being.Pryesh Tavari's, understanding of "service" is so compelling that it will motivate and invigorate you to continue your work for the greater good of both the community both locally and globally.

Jim Salinger formerly of NIWA (National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research). Lead author for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize in 2007 for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change.In 2006, he was elected to the position of President of the Commission for Agricultural Meteorology at the World Meteorological Organization.Jim is a world authority on climate change for NZ, specialising in glaciers and ice. Speaking of the differences between earth and climate scientists in comparison to commercial, industrial, military scientists, who are not specialists in climate issues.

He covers the skeptics and denialists and the email hacking of the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia being more smoke than fire, some of these emails hacked being his.And as NZ, is the 5th highest greenhouse polluter, per head of population globally, could overseas markets not buy our “non Green, clean products, if we do not act by leading?Listen to 30 years of climate experience and Jim's understanding of what the possibilities are.NOTE: This interview was arranged a month ago, this is not a conspiracy to have Jim instantly react to the email hacking flap presently happening in England. And we have the emails to prove it! (You can hack in to see that I am telling the truth!).
