There are many ways in which we can support higher levels of consciousness.  Respecting life in all things is one of them.  Specifically in this section, the reference is to Mother Earth and the abundance in which we are supplied. 

Hold the Vision.  Anyone reading this can support the beauty and bounty of our planet by giving gratitude for all our natural resources.  See how she thrives all around you. 

In the lava fields of Hawaii there are ferns growing in the hardened molten lava...Mother Earth knows how to survive.  When we envision her whole and healthy, she will continue to be just that, whole and healthy.

How can you help?  Recycle, change light bulbs, use energy efficient appliances, drive efficiently...  there are lots of simple, easy and inexpensive ways.

Plastic Bags - although this power point show higlights the hazards of plastic bags, remember, it is the user that causes the problem not the bag itself! 

My sister, Diane, sent in this suggestion for using plastic bags in a positive way.

When I do get plastic (if I buy something and forget my cloth bag - its in the car, etc.), I save the plastic, and use as packing material when I send items through the mail (rather than those pop-corn pieces).  They really work well to wrap up items to 'cushion', and I usually call the recipient and suggest they use them - either to shop with, or as packing again.

Consciousness is the cure!!!

Another tip she sent in for a good use of plastic bottles.

Take a 2 liter plastic bottle; punch a hole on each side of the top near the cap.  When leaving home for a week or so, fill them with water - tip them upside down, and bury the bottle top about 1/3 of the way into the dirt next to your plants. This acts as a slow drip for each plant you select. The plant stays healthy, and you are not using a timer to turn a soaker hose or sprinkling system on and off.  This saves on electricity, water and recycling!!
