We live in a huge and divert eco-system. Ecology does not shrink to the green ideas about renewable energies or attempts to protect the whales. It is a complex and broad view on ourselves within the world.

Global Ecovillage:


The website is about power and resources in our life:
the power as an outside energy source (air, water, food, heat and light); and the power of the inner energy source (intelligence, inspiration, creativity, spirituality). Together they combine as resourcefulness - the innate characteristic of life itself.
