Green Wizards

The Green Wizards' Benevolent and Protective Association, Tower No. 412, and the Rememberers' Guild, Local 412 of Pittsburgh, are pleased to announce their April meeting. Salvus per ignem!

We will meet on Wednesday April 25 from 6-to-7 p.m. at the Bridgeville Public Library to hear a free presentation from Blue Heron Nature Skills. The subject, presented by a local foraging expert, is an introduction to the carrot family. (There are many poisonous look-alikes here, so knowledge is especially important!)

We can't all know everything.That's a plain and simple fact.

What we hope to do over the next few years, is craft a course of study, a manual of knowledge, that people can read and at the end have a core set of skills that will help them in the Long Descent to come. Help them and help the people around them.

The Green Wizards' Benevolent and Protective Association, Tower No. 412, and the Rememberers' Guild, Local 412 of Pittsburgh, are pleased to announce their February meeting. Salvus per ignem!

We will meet on Monday February 12 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at Mt. Lebanon Public Library for a lecture on "Chocolate as Medicine." The presenter is a registered nurse, master gardener, and long-term herbalist. The talk will be followed by a chocolate tasting. You must register in advance, and space is limited.

While resource depletion, climate change, political instability and economic inequality are all top subjects when we discuss the causes of the coming collapse of our current global civilization, there is one cause that is often not mentioned because of its sensitive nature, and that is "Over Population".

In 2017 the World population stood at 7.6 Billion people. By 2050 that figure is expected to grow to 10 Billion.

Visitors new to this website no doubt ask yourself: "So what is up with this whole site? I mean "Wizards"? Are we serious about the Future or a collection of "wantabees" in their parent's basements?"

Its an honest question, deserving an honest answer.

To think of the Homeless, is to think of poor people sleeping in abandoned cardboard boxes in an alley behind some downtown building. Or living among tents in some small patch of trees, among other people at the end of railroad tracks. We think of those unfortunates as drug addicts, runaways and sometimes the mentally ill BUT more and more the face of homelessness drives a car and works a job.

Recently the pictures of an emancipated polar bear has been making the rounds of the news sites and blogs.

Photographer Paul Nicklen and filmmakers from the conservation group Sea Legacy posted a video of the starving bear and stated that they believed its condition was a direct result of Climate Change. This has left many on both sides of the issue arguing whether that is the true reason for its condition.
