"Health is a large word. It embraces not the body only, but the mind and spirit as well;...
and not today's pain or pleasure alone, but the whole being and outlook of a man."

Sustainable Living

Lisa Vance - Wednesday, June 06, 2012

My father does a lot in the field of sustainable renewable energy.  He has a real heart and passion for humanity and is a freaky genius when it comes to grass roots, hands on, practical solutions to many "third world" problems like: access to running water, affordable gas and electricity to cook with, and food security.   Many of us living in the modern world can barely even conceptualize what it would be LIKE to not have access to these.... My father gets up every day to try to make a difference to these people in rural areas... and to the world.

Here is a video clip of him having his say on "BRAVE", which makes me proud, a message we all need to hear, even though we all won't or can't hear it.
