Is the push toward environmentally friendly buildings gaining steam or stagnating? Who is in charge of sustainability initiatives & implementation; owners or tenants? Is it managed at the local level? How is the city of New York leading the charge? Is there enough data to give us a true picture of what “green” means & what are we doing to get meaningful data and information?

Economic Sustainability
The old roots and new seeds of an emerging social-economic uprising have been planted in the thinking, reasoning and actions of conscious individuals who are now ready to multiply their efforts and maximize their returns. Not since the 1960's has there been such a sacred ancestral surge within the consciousness of so many who seek to live and provide for their basic needs without compromising their spiritual values and pursuits. In the midst of this re-birth, the Kwatamani Holistic Institute of Brain, Body & Spiritual Research & Dev., Inc. (a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization) is the parenting entity with the comprehensive mission of promoting whole life healing through veganic/organic gardening, consumption of raw and living fruits, vegetables, seeds and nuts; and implementing the principles and practices of divine social-economic family-community order.
Sister AmiRa Bevel, a devoted student of the Institute, serves as the coordinator for this grassroots project which is in place to promote a consciousness-raising, social-economic network within an overall mission of whole life healing. Witnessing a healthy ancestral indigenous family has inspired Sister Ami Ra to patiently focus on developing divine social-economic family-community order. ConsciousAds.org was inspired by an invested interest in community development, holistic living, principled economics, wholesome child development and the restoration of indigenous culture.
Join with us as we come together to discuss this important need and aspect of community development; Economic Sustainability. We must be about developing an economy in which we can honestly assess and fulfill the needs of each other. However there is a need for a greater degree of engagement with a focus on solutions and a commitment to contribute positively.
