Watch this and get inspired by the entrepreneurial commitment to changing the world, with bold courage and open thinking.

Who will follow up his work, and how can we support this great effort?

After getting incredibly inspired I take responsibility as a consumer and I commit to the following:

Buy only vegetarian, organic & natural food

Buy as local as possible, make a real effort

Always buy the the fair trade alternative

Buy nothing that I don’t need

Always separate and reduce my waste

Recycle as much as possible

Minimize water and energy usage

Buy only natural cosmetics and detergents

Share sustainable solutions and practices with my network

Inspire others to take initiative

Join as many global actions as possible

Organise and support local events and actions

What else should or could I commit to? Invite me in the comments!

The Warriors Without Weapons is a course, but very different from the traditional ways of teaching you’ve met so far. Here you work hands on, see a collective dream of a better world to become real, in 30 days!

I have setup a game blog on http://pietradelmundowww2011.wordpress.com, but I will be cross-posting to my own blog as well, to keep you updated.

Tell us about your experience playing the game. What were the positive and negative aspects? How would you change your attitude from the beginning?

Tell us about the effect the game had in you? Did you notice any significant change? What did you consider positive in the process? What did you consider negative, difficult or inefficient?

My reflections.

This game for me was about the threshold from one person to a larger group. The most difficult step was to tell the people around me about what I am doing. I could have been much more confident about that, but I held back out out of respect for the lack of real interest I assumes was present.

My attitude therefore was more passive, and I could have been more active in pursuing my actions. The game made me aware of what is still possible in terms of small actions in my own life. It made me realize that I have too much stuff, so I started giving things away, and selling my valuables to fund-raise. Significant changes I found in myself were my appreciation for lightness and recycling, and my passion for food without packaging.

I found that the harvesting of the actions online requires a lot of online time, which made me postpone writing these blog posts. I am therefore a bit late with the last action. I also would have liked to play with other warriors, to feel and give more support.

The tasks however were inspiring and clear!

Thanks so much for following and supporting me!

We are crazy to see you in action!!!

The time has come to generate transformation in your community, using the plan that you have done and the resources you have gathered.

Mindmap of the action(s):

The community that was involved in all the actions:

And here you can see the objects that were made in 10 days:

Catapults from branches and Bicycle tires

Kites from old sheets and recycled cloth.

Go-car from wheelbarrow wheels & old scrap wood, Candles dipped from old Candles, Led poured from old Led.

Puppets from old Cloth (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)

Lantarns from old Paper and Twigs.

Work in progress:

Now is your chance to make a difference and do it!!! Decide who can help you and by what means. Tell us how you managed to gather people and who they are. List the skills and resources you can count on. Show us what your planning

The entire team of the Chilren’s Camp consisted of 23 volunteers.The formed a community of helpers to make this Community hospitable and to take care of the food, activities, fun and holding of the 47 children that where coming. They came together through networking of a small core group from Stroud, via a local high school and international connections. The group differs in age and is quite international.

The skills in the group range from experience with similar events and camps, to cooking in very basic kitchens, re-using and re-cycling and creative activities, arts and crafts.

The plan with this group is to do all kind of arts and crafts activities with the children, embracing creativity and recycling. We do that in different workshops, doing all kind of different things like building go-cars, led-pouring, tie-dying, wood-carving, building a tipi, a den, a obstacle course, making masks, poppet’s and much more. Most materials uses are recycled, as well as all the tools!

Look for a single aspect that can be improved in a community you are part of (your home, neighborhood, school, work, etc.). Share with us in details how you plan to do so.

From July 14 – 28th I am part of a temporary community at Camphill Community Oaklands Park, close to Newnham, Gloucestershire, England. I am volunteering in a Children’s Summer Camp, with 50 kids between 9 and 14 years old. I am part of a team of about 20 youth and adults who host and organise this camp for the kids. The camp takes place on a bio-dynamic farm, where we sleep, eat and do workshops. We sleep in tents on the cow meadows, and all the meals and large group activities take place in an empty barn. In this barn we have built a community circle area (we used straw bales), a tool shed (mostly recycled tools), a kitchen, dining area and dish-washing area.

Dining Area and Kitchen

The single aspect that I want to improve in this Camp Community is the waste and recycle management.When the camp started we did not have a proper waste and recycling management, so I took up the challenge to introduce that.

I have made bins for separate waste collection:

1. Organic, biodegradable waste
2. Paper and cardboard
   
3. Plastic
4. Glass
5. Tins, cans and other metals

With this waste I have different plans:

Organic Waste

1. Organic, biodegradable waste

This will all go to the farmers compost and be reused on the land.

That would mean food scraps, cooking scraps, left-overs, tea-bags, old coffee, rotten fruit and vegetables.

2. Paper and cardboard

We will use this to light the evening camp-fire for the community.

This also includes cardboard boxed and light-wooden cradles that contained food.

Plastic Trash

3. Plastic

The plastic will be divided and either recycled by the craft workshops, or brought to the nearest village for government trash disposal. I intend to find beauty in this trash and divide it even more into transparent plastic, usable plastic, hard plastic, soft plastic, etc.

5. Glass

The glass will be collected and turned into candlelights if possible, if not recycled by the council.

Metal Tins & Cans

4. Tins, cans and other metals

Cans and tins will be collected by children to use for the craft workshops. We are planning to make a bowling alley with cans, but also other toys and objects for games.

I am working together with the other volunteer youth and adults to bring about a community of low waste and recycling management. With the kids I am hoping to work with trash as resources and with abundance as one of the principles. I will not by any workshop materials, but only use that what we find on the farm.

I will be posting the results here on this blog!
