Voor €595,— kan je op 18 april in Almere naar Deepak Chopra en je onderdompelen in:

The Soul of Leadership

Een evenement georganiseerd door Nieuwe Dimensies. Prachtig. Jammer dat het niet gaat over quantum physics of over The Science Delusion? of over Einstein’s God, or The Hopes for Secular Spirituality of over A CAT-Scan of the Global Brain of over Shift in action of over Richard Dawkins digging his own grave of over The “Soul Hypothesis”. Bezoek Deepak Chopra’s website.

This five billion US dollar plan, which might do credit to a sci-fi film set, is envisaged for Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). When complete, in 2009, it will be the nearest thing yet to a zero-carbon, zero-waste city. Using the traditional planning principles of a walled city, together with existing technologies to achieve sustainable development, this six sq km expanse will house an energy, science and technology community.

Welcome to the Vision Bus Tour around Aarde’s Wiki. You are cordially invited to contribute, ask questions and even fix any errors you find on the way.

Enjoy the ride.

Sunday April 22 is Earth Day. An important day for AardRock and AardSource as well. A day to remember and mark in my calendar.

The essence of Aarde on a postcard. It’s one of the early versions still referring to LandONE as code name for this startling perspective.
