Drawing the wrong lessons from Sri Lanka’s organic farming experience (commentary)
Our research on the diets of long-term organic versus conventional tea farmers in Sri Lanka suggests that it is actually the established organic tea farmers who have done much better over the past two years. They receive a price premium for their product, have well-established internal supplies of high-quality organic compost to maintain their soils, and their tea yields are the same or better than those of conventional tea farmers.
Their steady earnings combined with vegetable gardens for home consumption mean that they have nutritious diets. This compares with conventional tea farmers who had to deal with the sudden loss of chemical fertilizer supplies last summer, struggled to find good-quality organic compost, and then saw declining yields, lower incomes, and poorer diets.

Video: Study Shows How Dogs Recognize Their Toys — FACE Foundation Blog

Our dogs love their toys, and many of them have favorite toys.

Nuremberg Holistic Sangha
This is the kind of Talks you may expect in the Nuremberg Holistic Sangha, that I have the honor to coordinate. Our regular meetings will start again in September, with a full online policy.

Everyone is welcome to join our Sangha, which is open to everyone who wants to practice meditation, mindfulness, and some mild physical activity such as Qi Gong, Yoga, or Tai Chi Chuan.
In the Sangha meetings, you can also listen to and talk about themes such as Buddhism, engaged Buddhism, Eastern philosophies, languages, and cultures, empathy, social commitment, peace, and environment.
No previous experience in meditation, mindfulness, or Buddhism is required to join us.
Also, the Nuremberg Holistic Sangha is not a religious community, but an open community of like-minded people who want to…

Belief
If we believe in the sanctity of life we would honour all of life, including Mother Earth and all sentient beings. What we believe in reveals itself in every aspect of our lives.

Time

Carlos Drummond de Andrade
” Idade madura em olhos, receitas e pés, ela me invade
com sua maré de ciência afinal superadas.
Posso desprezar ou querer os institutos, as lendas,
descobri na pele certo sinais que aos vinte anos não via.
Eles dizem o caminho,
embora também se acovardem
em face a tanta claridade roubada ao tempo.
Mas eu sigo, cada vez menos solidário,
em rua extremamente dispersas,
transito no canto do homem ou da máquina que roda,
aborreço-me de tanta riqueza, jogo-a toda por um número de casa,
e ganho
Idade madura. A Rosa do Povo
