After a few months of realizing that I am only part creating my life here with OneDollarCarbonCredits.com the other income to support my life is Real Estate, via ODCC TV to connect like minded environmentally concious people who want to make a big step towards a greener and better planet by living a self sustained lifestyle in a Village Community with all the amenities such has High Speed train station within walking distance of home to be in Brisbane City Centre within about an Hour! But thats not all, it is just the new start I am embarking on. Sharing my world, beyond 2012. Please enjoy this highlight video from today's, Sunshine Coast City RealEstate and Property Show, live from Freedom Farm every Monday and Friday at 2pm Local!

www.justin.tv/odcc presents: This short Video could be three shortCuts, instead I have combined them and added a few photos between the 60 second videos. I am on Freedom Farm discovering the Eastern and Central Gardens followed walking from and then the next day to, Glasshouse Township looking at the Mountains on the way. A real mixed bag in this video treat!
I know I have said it before during FreedomRocksTV on ODCC TV however in short, Government Carbon Trading scheme will increase costs of everything. The biggest things hit will be imports, fuel and groceries. This means being 2008, we still have a few years to sharpen our Green Brains and avoid paying for these items ever. Work from home (or for inspiration and encouragement use Community Tele-communte Centers), grow your own food and buy locally produced as much as possible. Get into the habit today and prepare to produce your own electricity too. Saving our wastage was only the start of the New World Garden!
Pavlova - An Iconic Australian Dessert My Favourite! Now you can enjoy making and eating Pavlova too. Follow the simple steps below and be creative with the decoration, use your local fruits that you love best!
The Pavlova was created by chef Bert Sachse, while he was working at Perth's Esplanade Hotel. He made it in honour of the hotel's most distinguished guest - the great prime-ballerina, Anna Matveena Pavlova. It is now a national dish. This popular party dessert consists of a shell of meringue, filled with whipped cream and fresh fruit!
4 Egg Whites Pinch of Salt 1 1/4 Cups refined sugar 1 tspn Vinegar 2 tspns Cornflour Whipped Cream Fruit to Decorate
Heat oven to moderate. Mark 20cm circle on greaseproof paper. Brush paper with oil and place on greased oven tray. Beat egg white and salt on high speed until stiff but not dry. Gradually add sugar, a tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. Meringue should be smooth and glossy and hold firm peaks. Remove beaters and sprinkle vinegar and cornflour over top of mixture and fold in lightly. Spoon mixture onto the greased paper circle and spread evenly. Make a depression in the middle with back of spoon. Place in bottom half of oven and immediately reduce heat to low. Bake 1.5 hours. Turn off heat and allow to cool in the oven. When cool, fill with whipped cream and decorate with strawberries, sliced kiwi fruit and passionfruit.
I have been in contact with my software developer and I have an update to complete that I will pray to achieve this week coming. I have had much to accomplish outside on Freedom Farm while winter is here, as the Climate in Summer is not to work in the Gardens or burn off large piles of tree debris from windy days. Here is a video from the past few weeks showing whats been happening on Freedom Farm. Keep an eye out later this week as I will have at least three more shortCuts of Freedom Farm to publish at JumpCut.
31 Days of July with 31 Tips to help go Green... and save money.
Every little bit is a step to help save the earth, by your actions.
1. Change to Fluorescent Bulbs - If every house in the United States changed all of the light bulbs in their house, that would be equivalent to taking one million cars off the streets. 2. Don't Rinse - Skip rinsing your plates before putting them into the dishwasher. In average you will save 15 gallons of water per load. Plus, you will save time. 3. Hang Outside to Dry - Get a cloths line or rack to dry your cloths. Your cloths will last longer and you will save money 4. Turn off computers at night - don't just put them to sleep. You will save an average of 4 cents a day which ads up to $14.60 a year. 5. Use Both Sides of Paper - if you have a printer with a double sided print option use it. You will save half of the amount of paper you would have normally used. Then when your done bring it to the recycle bin. 6. Get rid of baths - Don't take baths, take showers. You will in average save about half the amount of water that you would if you were taking a bath. 7. Don't get bottled water - Instead of bottled water get a reusable container to carry water. Also you can get a filter to make your home tap taste more like bottled water. It is definitely more cost efficient. 8. Turn the water off when you brush - Your parents have said this before, now I say it. You will save 4 gallons of water doing this alone. 9. Shorten your shower - Every minute you cut from your shower is roughly 5 gallons of water. The less time your shower takes, the lower your impact on the environment. 10. Recycle Glass - If you do not recycle this, it will take a million years to decompose. 11. Don't Pre Heat the Oven - unless needed, just turn the oven on after you put the dish in it. Also, to see if it's finished just looked through the glass instead of opening it. 12. Use Warm or Cold Setting on Washer - instead of the hot cycle use the warm or cold setting. This will save a lot of energy a year. 13. Turn Down your Thermostat - Every degree lower in the winter or higher in the summer you put it is a 10% decrease on your energy bill. 14. Turn off your lights - An easy one. Turn off your lights when you are not using them. The benefits are obvious. 15. Get rid of junk mail - There are many services that can help you get rid of junk mail. That will lead to a lot less trees being cut down to take up room in your mailbox. 16. Use Matches instead of lighters - Lighters are usually considered disposable so they will most likely end up in land fills. You can use the cardboard matches which are much more eco-friendly because they are made of recycled material. 17. Don't get a paper phone book - Instead of getting a paper phone book. Use a online directory instead. 18. Give things away - Take things that you are not going to wear or use and give it to a charity or someone who will use it. 19. Go to a car wash - Going to a car wash is a lot more water efficient then washing your car at home. 20. Stop paper bank statements - Why waste paper getting your bank statement mailed to you when you can just check it out online. 21. Buy Rechargeable Batteries - Even though it will take a good investment to buy these you will find yourself gaining it back in no time. 22. Play your Bills Online - If every house in the US did this then we would save 18 million trees every year. 23. Get a reusable bag - You can't recycle plastic bags, instead get yourself a reusable bag so that you won't have to worry about carrying your necessities. 24. Do Errands in Bulk - Make a list of the things you have to do, and see if you can fit a couple of those things together in one ride. 25. Inflate your Tires - If your tires are inflated at all times your car will run more miles on less gas. 26. Wrap Presents Creatively - Without going out to get wrapping paper you can use newspaper, an old map, or anything else. It would look a whole lot more creative. 27. Plant a Tree - It's good for the air, can keep you cool, and can increase your property value. 28. Buy Local Produce - Consider how much energy it takes for produce from china or any other country to come here. If you have the option to buy local, do it. 29. Walk or Ride Your Bike When you can - If you have to go somewhere close consider riding your bike or walking there instead of your car. It's better on the environment and healthier. 30. Offset your carbon footprint, somewhere else on the Planet, together we call home. 31. Tell a friend to do the same!
