Food is at the heart of some of humanity's most urgent challenges, but it's also the foundation for solutions. Slow Food has the power to reconnect all the People - and restore us all to harmony and peace.

Buying a home with friends is one way for single people to cut costs. It's not just the obvious - housing and bills - sharing meals and lawn mowers is another saving. And there are often social benefits, too.

Amid growing opposition to data centres - for good reason - this author asks a fascinating question. What if data centres - instead of being the enemy - were sustainable - and good for people and planet?

A US congresswoman has launched a bill to ban large Ai data centres, remove centres already there and remedy damage to the land. The US pushback against data centres is growing - will we see it in the UK?

Re-use of furniture is good for the planet - that's obvious. It's also really good for people - not only those who take on preloved pieces, but people who are finding their place in the world - through upcycling.

We're meant to believe sunshine and warmth will kill us - and destroy the planet. Sunshine and warmth bring forth life, however, as shown by the increase - in both numbers and diversity - of butterflies.

Laurent Simons is only 15 but already has a clear vision - to help people remain healthy and live longer. His stunning academic achievements are, to this young man, merely tools which enable his life mission.

The gov't does what gov'ts does - just looking like it's tackling the problems. This is a 1st class example of what 'Joe' ordinary people can do. Something extraordinary and needed on a widescale. People Power?

Unexpected meetings - unplanned plans - and being open to life rather than control it, all feature in this incredible personal story. It's not our job to fix others - all we need to do is be present - and listen.

Ancient prophecies speak of a time of profound transformation, in which humanity is called to remember its true origins and reconnect with Earth and the true principles of harmony and life. Is that time, now?

Can the US become a beacon of peace? An increasing number of Americans would surely choose this future - and see the war machine dismantled. Peace is essential for life - war benefits only a wealthy few.

What happens if everyone on Earth takes care of four acres of our planet? That's the beautifully simple idea - now fruiting into reality - behind an initiative founded on collaboration and meaningful action.

Do the majority of people feed a machine - one that makes a wealthy minority even wealthier? Has an exploitative system been built on our backs - with those who benefit insisting life has to be this way?

A meeting in the US will explore what the real threats are to national security - and seek solutions. Food security, health freedom, education and the expanding surveillance state are among the tabled topics.

Sir Gareth Southgate - ex-England football manager - says education needs to change to better serve boys, who are struggling more than girls. Role models, mentors and more male teachers would be good?

Community living - also known as co-housing - is becoming popular. Given a choice between isolation or connection - a tiny garden or abundant shared space to grow food - for many people, it's a no-brainer.

Once enough people understand, "politics" is theatre - and doesn't serve most people's wellbeing - we can, together, begin a new chapter. So - what kind of fairer society will we envision - and co-create?

Good, clean, locally grown food is great for biodiversity, climate change and food security. Yet the gov't insists shipping food across the world is the key to food security - and crushes small farms. Why's that?

Small nations are pushing for national health sovereignty - and less control by the World Health Organisation and other global entities. Past abuses in Africa - involving vaccines and the WHO - are evidenced.

Greenpeace activists took action against a pesticide giant accused of killing bees and wider ecocide -as well as control of farming practice. Do we need to ask - why is the gov't allowing this corporate ecocide?

A new audio documentary shows a way of life - once a key element of rural life - but now largely erased. Commoning - access to land for everyone - still goes on in the New Forest - but for how much longer?

Young people - still in school - have showed they see what's wrong in their communities - and are acting to make things better. Mightn't it be better if adults focused more on supporting our youngsters?

We're constantly pushed to compete, possess and consume - leading to greed and disconnection from each other and nature - but our future can be different. We just need to visualise it - and then create it!

New research shows, crop yields can be higher when artificial pesticides aren't used. Given how badly such chemicals harm our soil, water, air and health, do we need to return to growing food without them?

There's growing interest in buying food that isn't covered in packaging - and in seeing an end to single-use plastic. The good news is - it's now easier to find Refillable shops - thanks to this online tool.
