World not world, but that which is not world.
The world is all around us. The money and time that you invest online is shaping the spiritual and physical universes. You exercise significant power every time you choose a company to do business with.
There is life and death, light and darkness, war and peace. And beautiful Gaia where we live, near the Salish Sea, is sinking in woes.
We ask if the world around us will ever change, but that is not where we start. Each of us has a kingdom or queendom. Your kingdom is the range of your effective will. Whether you paint, write, sing, dance, work with wood, teach, advocate, film, sew, cook, clean, or run a business, you are shaping the world around you with your money and time.
There is the Earth, sky, lakes, streams, seas, roots, vines, twigs, branches and leaves. Day to day they pour forth speech, and night to night they declare. There is no speech, nor are there words, but their voice goes out through all the earth and their words to the end of the world.
Houses rise and fall. Corporations rise and fall. Factories and pipelines rise and fall. And there is stunningly gorgeous Lady Earth beset with woe.
At the still point of the turning world.
The current use of fossil fuels and plastics is creating an uninhabitable earth.
Creation-care is meeting.
Noam Chomsky teaches that there has never been a more evil empire than the Babylon of the West today, because for the first time in human history, the ultra rich and the rulers that do their bidding have chosen a course that will certainly wipe out human life on earth if the oligarchs are not defeated.
Scientists explain that the current use of fossil fuels and plastics is creating an uninhabitable earth. Scientists warn that climate change momentum is exponential in nature and will lead to hell on earth within 75 years: frequent deadly storms, hurricanes, flooding, earthquakes, fatal heatwaves, wildfires, crop failure, animal extinction, ecosystem collapse, man-made deserts, and more. The leaders of the Western World are choosing to ruin humanity and the futures of our children for power. It's the story of corruption, greed, and the dragon.
There is massive data about animal extinction and ecosystem collapse. Within the past 15 years various countries around the equator have seen climate change in real-time. They've seen years without rain, total crop failure, the death of their farms, and bankruptcy. Farmers are despairing and being forced into poverty with fields that can no longer grow food. Peer-reviewed scientists are sounding the alarm.
The interweb and the Earth
Creation-care intersects with our line of work at Little Brother Media. The internet is both a blessing and curse to the Earth and navigating internet ethics and design and development takes time. Here are some shortcuts, practices, and ideas towards renewal.
Carbon offsetting
We are responsible for our carbon footprint on Earth and sky. Here at Little Brother, we've offset 9.22 tons of carbon emissions and counting.
Green hosting
There are website hosting providers that provide hosting on servers powered by green-certified, renewable energy. They design and build their infrastructure accordingly. In 2025 we began migrating our websites to green providers.
Partnering
As kingfishers catch fire, dragonflies draw flame.
You exercise power every time you choose a company to do business with. You get to decide whether Monsanto, Nestle, ChatGPT, Meta, or Amazon get your money and time and it matters more than most people know. You get to decide who you partner with.
Boycotting
Whatever it is you do, we all are responsible to boycott the corporations that are destroying the world, empowering genocide, putting dictators into power, and treating their workers inhumanely. Don't you think so? Stay informed. The money and time that you invest online is shaping the fairy-world we all live in.
Social media
If you're building a website, you're faced with the question of how to build community and what social media platforms to use. Meanwhile, the owners of the big social media platforms are investing their immense profits in politics and lawlessness.
Artificial Intelligence
New software often includes AI features that are harmless, but the big AI spearhead is about replacing humans with machines. This is not science fiction. The AI corporations themselves say that they will replace
60% of the work force with robots in the next ten years, sending millions into poverty. AI images and AI videos were just the first wave of AI slop replacing human workers.
