Sugar sugar- the big killer...
Instead of real unity we are creating more human inequality, more exploitation, and an ever greater ecological imbalance. Once again we have forgotten our role as guardians of the planet.
Life is one, has always been one. It is a single, living, organic wholeness and everything in creation is a part of it, as vitally and inseparably related to the whole of life as an individual cell or organ is related to the larger organism
of which it is a part. Life is alive, with its own intelligence and divine purpose. And our role, as an intelligent part of this living oneness, is to support and help life to celebrate and fulfil this purpose. We are the guardians of life’s sacred meaning.
In our obsessive desire for material comforts, for more and more things, we have plundered the Earth as if it were a mere commodity to be exploited, and we have desecrated our world. Governments as leadership roles have been exploiting this and protecting so called “sacred cows” (areas which mean power or revenue , which they are not prepared to let go of , for the good of all.)
With regard to health , we know the damage of sugar, obesity, diabetes, heart decease will apparently cost more than worldwide conflict.What is happening globally to really address this? What industries, revenues, taxes, are being protected?
What is globally being done in terms of the food industry, retail, education on right diet? What role have global government?
It would seem that like cigarettes , poorer countries are targeted with sugar and rubbish by industries and we allow this, and it is the poor countries who will not have the financial resources to cope with the health impact. Sugar is addictive we know this, and the health consequences and financial impact of this are real.
