our times in the struggle to stop the destruction of the natural world upon which alllife depends.As horrifying upheavals transform our lives, and those of our brethren around theworld, we have some choices to make. We can accept the insanity of war,nuclear/coal /oil based energy, the pollution of cars/trucks/planes, the unknowndangers of genetic modification of our foods (we even have the gall to think we canpatent life for profit), the social degradation of reality television, pre -emptivemilitary attacks, fear mongering and our obsession with money. Or we can choose adifferent path. Being sustainable is a choice that you make. If you are not preparedto accept the problems all around you or dont believe that sensible solutions existthen you are not prepared for sustainability. If and when you do accept that a betterway of living is possible then this book can help you along the path of sustainability.Nature is infinitely complex, varied, and yet balanced. It is nature that inspires awe,creates beauty, and provides connections to the rest of life. It is in nature that wefind the answers to the most complex questions and problems. W hat is the purposeof life and its creative powers? Extraordinary people recognize the connectionsbetween humanity and nature. Ultimately it seems to me that we must try to liveeach day, each moment, with this inspired understanding of the fact that we are theenvironment. We are nature, but we have choices. By understanding this we willfind the meaning of our lives, and provide that opportunity to our children.We can generate the energy we need without using nuclear or fossil fuels . The foodwe eat can be healthier for us without costly genetic modification, damagingpesticides, herbicides and fossil fuel based fertilizers. Cities and towns do exist thatprovide easy walking access to all the needs of daily life. T<strong>here</strong> are cars and trainspowered by fuels that dont pollute the environment. T<strong>here</strong> are jobs in a newsustainable economy that support the restoration rather than the destruction ofnature. Emerging economic giants like China, Russia and India can take a differentsustainable path. We all can and must find this wonderful path.Sun Rise is about making choices that change everything. Take a look at nature allaround you. With each moment of your life make the choices that nature shows youmake the most sense. Take notice of everything in the natural world around youwith a renewed interest. Become inspired by seeing through childrens eyes again.Find people like yourself who know that things have to change.
