Value Life Newsletter, 02-Sept-2022
Dear Honest Men and Bonnie Lassies,
This week, Value Life (VL) released Mini-series Episode 03 on NATO, Geopolitics and Propaganda (~10mins). Hopefully non-cringeworthy π love is shown for our freedom too - it does come from the heart π so I can stand by it. I do hope you enjoy.
At the moment, VL is one man without a dog and so the QA, check and review process may be lacking (e.g. I hope the song references are a wee bit entertaining and sing to you in the moment, but I have reservations about them too π§.) And so, if anyone interested / has the time / can meet a reasonable deadline, with keen sharp mind, would like to be part of a pre-release review process in future please do reach out π€
A few wee VL pebbles launched with love and good intentions this week
Paid ecologi.com to plant 100 trees for the wifeβs birthday. The details about the planting project are very cool - you can read about it here if youβre interested. You are also invited π to plant some trees using this link - if you use the link we both get 30 sparkly trees. (Oh man, not even sure what that means, but gieβus some sparkly trees ππ).
Sent a little more cash to the Embassy of Ukraine. Feel a little torn about sending money that can be used for military purposes, but feel strongly about supporting Ukrainians in these times (as you may have guessed).
Donated to Save the Children after listening to The Intelligence from The Economist podcast: famine stalks Somalia - harrowing stuff.
Signed this petition to tell the UK Government that they must reject a new gas field proposal in the North Sea. I feel that sustainable economic growth and energy alternatives need to be sought. More production usually equates to more consumption which could be disastrous for Mother Culture / our descendants and Scotland can help steer the ship to a cleaner future.
Demanding change will tell politicians that they cannot rely on your votes in the future if they proceed. Their leadership positions depend on us! You can sign the petition to Stop JackDaw here.
Started the Race For the Rainforest through Cool Earth (and donated Β£10 to my own page because they said it encourages donations). I have been donating to Cool Earth regularly for some time. Do not feel in anyway obliged (I mean it), but here is the link to donate or QR code if ye fancy:
The High-Level Plan of Action FYI
Here is what to expect in the next few newsletters:
A few more episodes to conclude the mini-series.
Mini-series housekeeping to add timestamps to the YouTube videos for future visitors to easily navigate the content; sources; and perhaps overlay contents at the beginning of episodes.
Refine and promote #Duhbye as a nickname for the Russian Leader (if you are keen to explore and are unaware, this is already outlined in my one and only podcast released in March 2022 (~1hr 20min))
Draw-up a plan or roadmap to illustrate and share with you where the journey may take us (heads-up, it essentially results in pertay time π).
Any comments, feedback or queries would be lovely and more than welcome - this is your community too after all.
Have a great weekend when it comes and as always, thank you very much for your time!
Big hugs and much love,
Ross
