Regeneration: Beyond the Madness and Sadness

Given the magnitude of the current crisis, we at OCA believe we need to expand our redemptive message of Regeneration to encompass, not only the next stage of organic food and farming and land use, but also our political policies and practices. We must step up our efforts, not only championing organic food and farming, but international peace and economic justice, civil liberties, participatory democracy, and regenerating health, both mental and physical. In the midst of political corruption and opportunism, media censorship and fear-mongering, it’s essential to focus on positive ideas and solutions.
Our once hoped-for global community of nations appear to be lurching toward endless war and chaos. The Big Pharma, Deep State cover up of the lab origins of COVID, rampant comorbidities (induced by Big Food, Big Ag, and corrupt government policies and subsidies), media fear-mongering, war-mongering, censorship, scientific fraud, Big Pharma profiteering, lockdowns, authoritarian mandates, and alarming numbers of deaths and injuries from rushed to market “gene therapy” vaccines continue.
Degenerative food, farming, land use, and finance are still the rule rather than the exception. Politicians, Democrats and Republicans alike, find it easier to demonize one another rather than sit down, listen to their constituents, and find common ground. War is raging in Ukraine as well as many other nations, cheered on, not just by the military-industrial complex, but by leading war hawks in both parties. Poverty, suffering, and mental anxiety, exacerbated by the pandemic and the lockdowns, are rampant. The great web of biodiversity is unraveling. The climate is in free fall. Our children and the most vulnerable are forced to struggle harder than ever, just to survive and maintain a positive outlook.
Regeneration Now
And yet, as we never tire of repeating, there are positive signs of resistance and Regeneration bursting out at the grassroots, from Mid-America to the Middle East.
The overwhelming majority of people in the world are not our enemies or adversaries. Our fellow human beings want peace, democracy, justice, meaningful work, healthy food, and a healthy environment for themselves and their families, just like we do. The overwhelming majority of the global body politic do not want giant corporations such as Bayer/Monsanto, Syngenta, and Pfizer, Silicon Valley, or indentured politicians such as Biden, Putin, and Xi Jinping taking away our freedoms and dictating our food, farming, technology, and health choices and practices. We don’t want Bill Gates, the World Economic Forum, the military-industrial complex, Big Pharma, the CIA, and their allies the genetic engineering industry manipulating science, the media, foreign policy, and international relations.
Stop Weaponizing Microbes
We have recently launched a campaign to stop the mad science of weaponizing viruses and pathogens, to stop the next pandemic before it starts. Part of this campaign involves bringing the perpetrators of COVID-19 to justice. By joining together to stop out-of-control science, genetic manipulation, industrial agriculture, nanotechnology, military madness, and bioweapons, by nurturing a 21st Century paradigm of peace, negotiation, and disarmament, rather than belligerence, we can safeguard our future. Even though it may sound utopian to many at this point in time, we really have no choice but to join with the global grassroots, especially our counterparts in Russia, China, and Europe and force our governments to cooperate in the interests of peace and Regeneration. In Ukraine and the other war zones of the world we must call for “Negotiation, not Escalation.”
By sowing the seeds of peace and Regeneration, we can scale-up the best practices of organic food, natural health, nutrition, and integrative medicine. We can clean up our toxic environment and our toxic politics. We can move from elite domination and technocratic surveillance and control to participatory democracy.
The bad news is that the panic-mongering and censorship carried out 24/7 by the mass media and hyper-partisan politicians over the past two years has created unprecedented fear, confusion, and polarization.
The good news is that the global crisis has crystalized a major awakening at the grassroots. Millions of us are ready to organize and mobilize for a Regeneration Revolution.
We at OCA and Regeneration International are perennial optimists. We believe that we, the global grassroots, are literally at a turning point in history. This is the crucial moment when we must step up our truth-telling and educational efforts. Now is the time to build stronger coalitions, resist the enormous power of the global elites and technocrats, and bring about fundamental change in the marketplace, public policy, and finance.
But in order to carry out a Regeneration Revolution we need your help.
