Food, Life and All That. Observations along the journey. By Way of Introduction. Rob on May 18th, 2012. Allegedly, Buddha once said, Happiness does not depend on what you have or who you are; it relies solely on what you think. Or . . . you might say it relies quite simply on two of Enid’s orange-yolked eggs, gently poached and served on Damien’s country sourdough toast. I’m sure Buddha would be [.].

Food, Life and All That. Observations along the journey. By Way of Introduction. Alice in Religious Wonderland. Rob on November 5th, 2011. Last week, on Channel 4’s 4thought.tv, the question has been asked, Could your God be a woman? I find it hard to believe that, in the 21st Century, facing the imminent collapse of ecosystems and social systems alike, we are wasting time on such inane matters. To start with, the question is fatuous. If I [.]. Continue reading about Alice in Religious Wonderland. Quietl...

Food, Life and All That. Observations along the journey. By Way of Introduction. That’s All, Folks! Rob on July 30th, 2012. I think this blog has gone as far as it is able to go. If I thought I was making any real difference to anything by writing it, I would of course continue. Although we all face huge challenges for the future, I know far too few people who have any kind of true understanding [.]. Continue reading about That’s All, Folks! Rob on June 1st, 2012.

Food, Life and All That. Observations along the journey. By Way of Introduction. There is no Planet B. Rob on March 8th, 2012. My thanks to Ban T-shirts for the above . . . (and my other favourite one: A frog does not drink up the pond in which he lives ). Both of which bring me to the latest TV offering for armchair Earth fans, Orbit: Earth’s Extraordinary Journey on BBC2. Ubiquitous and infectiously bubbly TV presenter, Kate [.].

If you have landed on this site for the first time, here is something you might like to know: this blog is a phoenix, risen from the ashes of a previous online diary, which perished in the flames of website re-design in August 2010, and was not reborn until November.

Food, Life and All That. Observations along the journey. By Way of Introduction. Another look at exponential growth. Rob on May 1st, 2012. There is a lot of talk at the moment about fracking, or ‘induced hydraulic fracturing,’ as it is more formally known in the oil and gas industry. It is a way of releasing natural gas trapped in rock layers far below the surface. It is contentious, difficult, expensive, energy-inefficient and resource-hungry, using anything up to [.].

Carbon Trading – Nice Work If You Can get It

Food, Life and All That. Observations along the journey. By Way of Introduction. Carbon Trading – Nice Work If You Can get It. At a recent meeting about the challenges that face humanity, someone in the audience mentioned carbon trading as part of the solution. Well, at the risk of being cynical (again! I’d say that such a statement is naïve. Yes, you’ve guessed it, the biggest, dirtiest corporations. Meanwhile, our carbon emissions in the UK, in the rest of Europe and around the world continue to rise i...

Food, Life and All That. Observations along the journey. By Way of Introduction. TV: The Misinformation Superhighway. Rob on March 20th, 2012. There was a programme on TV tonight, in the supposedly high-brow Horizon series, purporting to tell us The Truth About Fat. It didn’t. It told us things it didn’t mean to tell us, for instance that science still subscribes to archaic systems of research and that there is, as ever, a predominance of reductionist thinking [.].

Sitting attentively through the first two episodes of Channel 4’s The Food Hospital, Rob and I couldn’t believe that at last there seemed to be recognition by the medical profession, albeit a small team of four, that a lot of common health problems can be cured or alleviated [.].
