Animal farming, environmental impact and global warming

I decided to quit my previous job recently, the main reason being they required international travel (flying) at least once a year, and that flying has an enormous impact on global warming. To give some inspiration and raise awareness I said this in my thank you/goodbye-email to around 120 people:

Finally, I would like to give you some food for thought. Sorry if it is too lengthy -- it is worth a read. I am more and more concerned about global warming, and take many steps in my personal life to reduce my impact - including being vegan, travelling to visit family in Sweden via train instead of flying, commuting by train and bus, using renewable energy from Ecotricity, etc. The average global footprint per person in UK is 10 000 kg of CO2 [1] - this is living as we lived on 4 (!) planet earth. In order to avoid global warming with several degrees with severe consequences for our planet and us living here [6], each person needs to reduce their emissions 4 times (or by 400 percent) (to around 2500 kg per year) which involves radical changes, but changes that are quite easy to do with some determination. This is a good website [4] to see your ecological footprint by answering some questions.

According to WWF humans have wiped out 60 percent of all  mammals, birds, fish and reptiles since 1970  the last 50 years. They write in their new report that the biggest cause of wildlife losses is the destruction of natural habitats, much of it to create farmland used for farming animals. Furthermore, killing for food is the next biggest cause – 300 wild mammal species, including some chimpanzee and bear species, are being eaten into extinction – while the oceans are massively overfished. Researchers warn that the oceans will be depleted of fish by 2048 [7]. If we all went vegan we would no longer pay into the three major causes of what has been labelled as the 6th mass extinction in the history of this planet.

Without meat and dairy consumption, global farmland use could be reduced by more than 75% – an area equivalent to the US, China, EU and Australia combined – and still feed the world. There is an increasing number of people who realize that we can easily live and be very healthy on a vegan diet. Since we can do this, the intense suffering that many animals go through for animal products, is completely unnecessary [8]. They all want to live in freedom and be happy just like us, however the process of being reduced to meat, dairy, eggs, honey, wool, etc., typically involve a lot of suffering (e.g. cows get their babies taken away from them within a day from when their calves are born, so that we can have cows milk instead of their calves, and never get to see them again). Being kind and compassionate we can decide to make peace with animals and be vegan. There is a one month vegan challenge I highly recommend called Veganuary, with plenty of delicious recipes and other advice [5]

Poem, As long will I love you

I got engaged to my beautiful love Clare a few months ago. Here is a poem written by me a few weeks ago dedicated to her:
As long as the stars shines in the heaven
As long will I love you

As long as the ocean kisses the shore
As long will I love you

As long as the sun shines her love on everyone
As long will I love you

Forever we belong to each other
Embraced in our deep warm, loving, holding, protecting embrace

I will love you as long as Mother earth nurtures all her children
All life connected to her
I will nurture you and our children forever together with you as the best
Gentle kind parents.
I will love you as long as the water flows
I will love you as long as my breath is rising and falling
And into eternity

I will love you as long as the meadow nurtures all her beautiful flowers
Caring for them with her gentle tender loving hands

I will love you as long as the air gives oxygen to all life
I will love you from the very first tender words you wrote me until our very last breath and into the eternal bliss and love heavens
I will love you from the first time your caring, loving words touched me and warmed my heart
From the very start, and until forever, our hearts will never be apart

I will love you as long as your shining diamond eyes
Are shining out your beautiful love
In this moment and every moment to come
And even if your sight fades away
Our love grows deeper and deeper for each moment and day

I will love you as long as Forever is
And into Eternal Bliss

I will love you as long as our hearts beat
Beaming love into eternity

I will love you as a never-ending love poem
Going on forever and ever even when
Our breath fades away

Poem, Deep love in nature

The stars behold in awe and in wonders

As we meet

And make love

Under the still blue sky

That they so generously light up

The ocean is beholding us

In depth and deep blue stillness

As we make love on the beach

With our spirit, soul, body, our whole being
Hearts deeply connected and intertwined

She breaths calmly

She kisses the shore gently and slowly

Like soft, tender, exquisite music

She kisses the shore

She kisses her beloved

As I kiss my beloved

She makes love with every movement

As I and my beloved love make love with every movement

I hear the wind gently caressing the serene green meadows

I hear how they make love with every breath

I feel their love song and sense their deep soul song

My heart rejoices with their heart and soul

I sense their shared magic, mystery and the deepest depth of their kinship and bonding

As they share their deep love and profound connection

I rejoice over their happiness and richness

And I rejoice with my beloved love over our profound connection and richness

We share love

We make love

We deepen in our love

We rejoice in immense gratitude of sharing and deepening

In our divine tender love

In our burning calm love fire

We rejoice in our deep profound love

Nature is rejoicing with us

The wind, the grass, the sand, and the trees

It is all so very sacred to me

So sacred to my Heart

So sacred to my dearest friend

My Heart, my Beloved Heart

So sacred to the very core

Sacred Love

Love so sacred

We hear the owl singing her love song

She is singing for God

She is singing for her lover

She is singing, rejoicing with our Love

She is singing to share her love and beauty to every being

She is singing:

We share a higher love

Divine love

Selfless love

A lasting love

A timeless love

An authentic love

Together we dive in the deep waters of love

Embraced fully in the Ocean of the Beloved

/Anders Branderud, 2016

Poem, Pure Love

Our Love holds universes

Our Love is the core of life

She is timeless

She is visionary

She envisions peace, love, magic and mystery

She is a gentle all-embracing mother

She is a gentle hugger

She is a tender hug

She is the lover

She is the beloved

She is pure love

/Anders Branderud, 2016

Love poem - True loves kiss

Feelings of light

So beautiful and bright

Magical mysterious sight

True love at first sight

Magical colours in glistering light

Joy and happiness

Summer love

Shines so bright

Resting hand in hand with my beloved

Perfect pure love

Illuminates the light blue sky

Trust is flowering in hearts’ beauty

Hand in hand we walk in the bright beautiful light

Love is awakening in our hearts

Sweet home

Your Heart is my sacred Home

My love nest

Our tender love flower is flowering

Gracefully and tenderly

You are my true loves kiss

My purest sunset devotion

Together with you in sacredness

In pure tender deep bliss

With deepest heartfelt care

In your arms my Loving Clare

Pouring my love

From the depths of my Heart

In devotion to you my beautiful love jewel

My deepest devotional love

With pure heartfelt devotion

Pure love in your heart full of sweetness

Listening to your tender heartbeat

Moving gently in true love

And deepest heartfelt care

With deepest devotion

And purest of love light

I stand lovingly by your side

My beautiful loving tender light

Love is tenderly knocking on our door

Patiently waiting to transform our fears into pure love

Love thaws the fears in our heart

Melting the ice into gushing streams of loving kindness

/Anders Branderud, 2016

My beautiful swan princess of the lake

You are my beloved swan
My beautiful swan princess of the lake
Gently you kiss the tender water streams
Swimming and immersing in nature's beautiful harmony
Being embraced in her tranquility and serenity
You send your love as you glide through the still waters

You are my chosen swan princess
I rest in your presence and deeply loving care and warmth
Resting and being held in your deeply caring, loving, compassionate, warm arms
Two swans guided together as one
in divine sacred union
Our wings formed into a love boat
As we kiss the waters we make heart waves
Blessing the waters
Blessing the ground kissed by the waters
Our Love sends blessings to everyone
Our Heart's love embraces everyone

Dedicated to my beautiful love Clare

Beautiful flower growing in the meadow

Dedicated to my soul beloved Clare – a poem of her beauty. And it is also a poem for everyone – of the beauty that is within all of us – beauty that can unfold naturally as a blossoming flower when we recognize, nurture and celebrate it.

You are a beautiful flower growing in the meadow

Surrounded by beautiful flowers

Your soul sisters and brothers

You shine your light bright

Discovering your dazzling beauty from within

You are Home

Adoring all the flowers in the garden

Nurturing and caring for them in deep devotional love

Feel your loving beauty

Your loving heart abode

May you stand and receive the always shining Love

and warmth from the Sun

Divine blessings from the Sun – God Goddess

And be a pure reflection that fully receives the loving blessings

Gently embracing and receiving all kindness and nourishment

and reflects the divine sunlight to all living beings

/Anders Branderud, 8/5-2016

Love meditation, May our path be filled with loving light and blessings

May our path be filled with loving light and blessings

May we always be in deep love

Heart warm tender delicious love

May we surround our hearts and warm our hearts all the time
May we be filled with love

Be love

Love ourselves

In every moment

Even when other people don’t love us

Or when they don’t show their appreciation to us
Or when they are angry, or hurt, or sad, or any other emotions
May we just shine with our love, love and love

And feel the love inside

May we be so immersed in this love and this beauty that it really shines through us

Self-love – so strong and beautiful that she just radiates

Through all circumstances

In every moment, in every breath, in every hearbeat, in every circumstance

Shining radiating heart that beams this beautiful warmth

Shining warm fire that just shines and warms up our whole being

And radiates out through our eyes

Shining and warming up every one we are encountering

Filling them with love and light

And spreading the warm, divine, tender, beautiful fire

May our love be all deep

All embracing, the depths of our whole hearts

All these crevices that has been neglected

May the grace of Love shine through all these dark crevices

And fill them with dazzling shining love night

May she fill, embrace and expand in these dark, neglected crevices

Fill them with sweet love, sweet magnificent self-love

May we just bath and soak in

God Godddess sees every act of kindness

Celebrates every act of kindness even if the receiver doesn’t show appreciation
Many people are not so good at showing appreciation.

I love you kind

Dikt, Jag ligger här i stillhet

Jag ligger här i stillhet

Jag hör vindens brus

Jag känner kärlekens ljuva omfamnande sus

Jag ligger och känner solens värme på min hud

En värme som går igenom mina kläder

Värmer mig

Omfamnar mig

Hon överöser mig kärlekens tindrande ljus

Jag ligger här i stillhet

Jag känner jorden under mig

Jag känner hennes pulserande hjärtslag

Jag känner hennes kärleksfulla andetag

Omgiven av ståtliga träd som står i sin storhet

Trygghet

Högt står de grundade i Moder jord

Och sträcker sina vingar mot himlen

Solen ger dem energi och värme

Och jorden ger dem näring att gro och frodas

Ger dem kärlek i överflöd

Kärlekens glöd pulserar genom deras kroppar

Jag ligger här

Känner mina andetag
Känner den ömma kärleken i mitt hjärta

Känner hennes ljuva närvaro

Jag hör fågelns kvittrande kärleksfulla visa

Hon sjunger till mig

Hon sjunger om en kärlek så djup

Så naturlig

Så hel

Jag ligger här hel i ljuvaste magi

Omfamnad av naturen ömhet och mysterium

Jag andas i takt med hennes ömma närvaro

Jag säger till henne: Tack för att jag får vara med dig

Tack för att jag får sjunga kärlekens lov tillsammans med dig

Tack för att du värmer mig och vittnar om en kärlek så oändlig

Så obegränsad
Så stor

Tack – sjunger jag ut i en kärleksfull stämma från min kropps innersta djup

Min djupaste hjärtdjup
med de ömmaste hjärttonerna

Mitt hjärta sjunger och spelar denna ljuva musik

Jag känner hur friden fyller mitt inre när jag lyssnar på mitt käraste hjärta

och hennes innerliga närhet med Moder jord och naturens innersta

Jag älskar dig innerligt min älskade Clare

Min fagra sköna blomsterficka

My pretty most beautiful sweet flowery girl

/Anders Branderud [2016, februari]

Poem, My love for you is endless

Anders Branderud, 2016 [dedicated to my love Clare]

Poem, Deep peace and harmony

Deep peace to you

In our deep heart connection

In lieing next to you with my soul, heart and being

Tenderly I stroke your golden shining hair
I gaze into the deep mysteries of your eyes

I gaze and I see wonders and beauty

My heart is so touched to explore the depths together with you

To explore the depths of you

To explore the depths of nature

To journey together in this divine mystery of Life

To Love together

To be together

To celebrate and rejoice

Together

Together with the couple of willow warblers that are chasing and playing with each other

Together with the dolphins that are making cute affectionate love sounds

Together in harmony with all of nature

A harmonious choir with all beings

We are all singing and dancing under the rainbow

Our heart sound merges into one eternal Om

And the angels are surrounding the rainbow playing on their harps

I see healing angels playing on their divine flutes

Their tones are carried by the soft breeze

and bring healing to all bruised hearts

Anders Branderud, 2016, 2 february [dedicated to my Love Clare ]

Poem, May Our Love Inspire Love

May Our Love Inspire Love

May our love expand
May she grow
May she be like a great oak
Firmly rooted in the ground
Being close and connected
To Mother Earth
With deep roots
And deep listening
To her heartbeat and voice
May our love be selfless

May she seek the best
May she seek the highest good
May she walk the highest path
May our love overflow with deepest compassion,
Love and healing for every being

May our Love be built on deep listening
And profound deep caring
May she be held in the deepest most profound peace
May our hearts be immersed in the deepest most selfless love
May our hearts carry everyone

I pray our love will always be available,
Always attuned to, always there for everyone in need
I pray we will extend our kindness,
Love and compassion to everyone
With loving understanding to souls that are so hurt
That they don't feel able to love

I pray that our happiness, joy and smile will cheer up weary souls
In need of joy and hope
May our love inspire and embrace
Tired spirits that have lost hope in the world

May the words we speak
Be words of healing and comfort that soothe and heal
The shattered and hurt soul

May our love be like a divine light,
A shining beacon,
Illuminating the dark night
Of a soul feeling lost and in need of guidance

May our love inspire love
Love that loves inward, upward and forward
May our love be patient
And understanding of the shortcomings
In ourselves and in others

May we love really deep
May we give and love selflessly
Without conditions or expectations
May we love from our heart

Anders Branderud 2016 (and edited by my love Clare)

Poem, Sadness - Sacred Tears of Love

There was so much love
Deep deep heart intimacy
My heart was immensely touched
Deep vulnerable sharing
Touching my heart deeply

And some words touched on a deep sadness in me
I did not resist it
I was with her
I felt the tears falling
My body shaking
I felt her moving

I was just there
I didn’t try to push my experience away
I didn’t judge her for expressing herself
I experienced her
I let the layers unfold and let them unfurl
Slowly
Patiently
Like a loving mother
I listened
I attuned
I was with my body in Love

Tears are sacred to me
Every tear is a drop of sacred divine Life
Dropping into the Fullness of
the Ocean of Life and Completeness
Each tear is beautiful
Each tear wants to be seen,
to be fully felt and embraced
in her fullness

And the tears fell down
My body was trembling
My whole body was crying
Rivers of cleansing and healing
She was embraced by Inner Calm
And a Heart wide open to allow and
appreciate her
In her depth of expression
And the rain lasted for a while
until she had expressed what
she needed to express

My body stopped moving
She rested in a deep calm
She immersed in stillness and being content

I embraced my sadness with Love
And she embraced me back
Kissing me gently on the cheek
And she whispered in my ear:
Thank you for being with me and accepting me
All I want is to be loved and seen
and accepted for who I am

Poem, Tender hands

Poem to a beautiful heart friend:

I see your generous heart. I sense your divine beauty and light How you tend and nurture your earthly and spiritual roots How you give in abundance and richness How you listen to the heart beat of the earth And how you put your heart on the earth and let her beat in the same frequency How you tend to the flowers of the earth And the gracious flower of your Heart How you nurture the soil of your soul and the soil of the garden I sense how tender your hands must be Taking deep care of the flowers and plants to help them grow and tendering, loving and nurturing your friends I feel your love for your inner playful child and for the precious children you meet I see you Namaste

Poem, Soulmate, wholemate - Relationship vision

We lie in the grass embracing each other
Our bodies, souls and hearts are vulnerable and naked

Our foreheads lie connected to each other

Our intuition is alive and is guiding us

Our throats are connected

Singing out our heart song in union and in magic

In depth and in longing

And sharing our innermost truths

Our eyes are gazing deeply into each other

I see stars, galaxies, vividly and shining

There are no limitations

Our eyes are uniting in divine infinity

There is nothing apart

Nothing is separating us

Our hearts are connected as we lay deeply attuned

Chest to chest

In soul rest

My heart is burning like the shining sun

Radiating in all her wildest glory

With rays shining through all my defenses

And melting life assembled layers of ice

And her heart is radiating with kindness

And with love in all magnificence

A shining sun of warmth, stillness and beauty

Glowing and flowing to her attuned heart beat

And our rays of sun are uniting and meeting each other

Integrating, amplifying

Deeply resonating and softly expanding

Rays intertwining

Slowly as our hearts are pounding in the same pace

Our united shining field is expanding in intimate space

Into a glorious, radiantly shining

Transparent bubble of exquisite beauty and love

And she is surrounding our bodies

And together we shine

United as one

Our individual beauty united in our magnificence love

The Heart’s exquisite beauty is shining through

As the egos are melting in the furnace

of intimacy and love

And she is unfolding in her divine beauty

Dressed as a white angel

Clothes made out of purity

And the rainbow

in her divinity, playfulness and multifaceted colour-filled expression

Standing as an aura around her

I see this divine angel in her vividness and vitality

Her divine female beauty

in our magical heart-space

I sense her tenderness and her warmth

And her delicate and gentle stroking with her wand

I hear her playing the divine flute

And I sense its vibrations touching my heart walls

Slowly and softly expanding

and softening up the tensions and defenses hiding in my chest

And she is a divine mother

Always available, nurturing

being, seeing and receiving

And she touches gently with her magical wand

and warm and tender heart

Gently touching around the wounds in all her healing power

She is embracing the wounds in their fullness

Transparently seeing the wounds with her warm and healing love

She is tenderly sending her love vibrations

healingly resonating around the wounds

And she is patiently embracing them with healing and wholeness

She is being there in her motherly allowing spaciousness

Our shared heart-space is shining like a strong beacon of glorious love

Standing in the ocean of Life

And she is guiding boats longing for clarity, truth and love

And she is providing her light and her delight

for boats that feel lost in the vast and wide ocean

Our Heart is holding everything

It is a vast space of deep accepting Holding

And we are laying

Softly intertwined

Our belly centers connected to each other

And in all divinity and simplicity

Our beings are guided by her softness and wisdom;

And empowering us to take sails

And be blown by her soft whispers

And our sexual chakras and root chakras are connected

And they are connected with our hearts

Energy, power and calm, heartful and intimate passion and love

Is running through our bodies

In union with the soft, loving, giving and singing Heart

We are sharing love and Heart-presence

And our legs are laying and touching the soil
Intertwined to each other

Intertwined to the ground

And we are rooted

Deeply rooted and grounded

to the richness and fertility of the soil

Our being is grounded in the earth

and our branches reach up and kiss the divinity of the sky

And we provide a gentle and caring

soft and tender space for the birds to rest

And she whispers lightly in my ears

I love you and I want to be with you

In the sorrow and in the pain
In the sunshine and in the rain

In light and divine glory

With your ragged humanness

and in your divine beautiful light

I want to receive the gift of the presence of your being

And I want to share the gift of my presence and being
In all authenticity and vulnerability
I want to be with you in my fullness

and embrace your fullness

I trust you being there for me

I trust you being available

Together we create magical stories untold

Together we let divinity and mysteries unfold

And we roll around in the green grass

And smell her fresh scent

We listen to the bird singing her love songs to God

And sense the wind dancing for God

And gently touching our skin

And we roll around in playfulness

Like two spontaneous wild children

Playing and exploring

Every breath is a new adventure

I feel her long hair playfully and

gently stroking my face

I sense magic in my heart

Delight, magic and wonder

of this wondrous moment in

intimate togetherness

We share intimacy in soft and tender words

Words that feel like the whisper of the soft breeze

We listen and attune

Deeply listening with our hearts

And they sing and dance joyfully together

Holding hands we jump over the hills

We climb with determination and lightness

And as we reach the top

We behold all the beauty of the divine magic surrounding us

and that lives and dwells within us

As the nature is playing her delicious, beautiful music

Our feet and hands unite in a dance

A soft and gentle heartfelt dance

And to the beat of our heart

Our feet are smoothly moving

Our bodies are turning and moving

Deeply listening and responding to each other

And creating the most exquisitely beautiful dance

And we are holding each other

With hands, with arms, with heart, with presence

We are holding each other

Like a divine mother

Like an intimate heart friend

in sacred union and in love,

and in the gentlest of tenderness

Each texture of our bodies are filled with divine light

Divine love at first sight

At first heart sight

Love so tender and calm

A soft whisper that easily can be missed

Deeply felt and heard by a Heart attuned

To her Divine Source of Love

Unavailable for an intimate connection

First you were available
Now I don't sense that anymore
I wanted to meet you in your fullness
And it feels I received a close door
I wanted to meet your Heart
You let me in
But now I sense you put up the armour

First you walked slowly towards me
And for a short while you ran into my embrace
And now I feel you run away
From intimacy
From your fear of intimacy
and fear of loss

And I understand your heart is not ready
It is okay
I will embrace my disappointments

And be with my sadness and grief
Based on expectations not based in Reality
I want to embrace Life as it is now

Heart-available for meeting me as she
meets me now

I am grateful for what we had
For the wisdom you taught me in
meeting me and not-meeting me
The feelings that were awoke in me
My Heart's tender response 

For the beautiful emotional intimacy we shared

Teaching me to be with myself in uncertainty
And to cherish Love when she shows up in Her beauty

She shows up
She disappears - seemingly
She changes form
Changes season
She is always there
Always Here
She hides below expectations
She is closer than your breath
She is underneath your judgments

She is always waiting
For you to show up
To Life's gentle invitation

/Anders Branderud, 31/12-2015

Poem, Heart Openness

In Heart and in vulnerability 

It is here my Heart flourishes
And is nourished
And joyfully sings her beautiful song

Here in the fertile ground
In the rich and allowing soil

Here I can grow and flower
In divine space and pace
In my Beloveds' gaze
and her warm embraceIn her tender nest
and loving and accepting chest
In the warmth, care and beauty
Of the art in her Heart

An intimate white layer of pure and shining snow
Snow flakes dancing with joy in the air
Softly falling
In evening glory
Celebrating a miracle story
Of Heart's attuned
singing a beautiful duet 

Anders Branderud, 27/12

Poem, Gentle strokes of the Heart

It is not about labels
It is about how deep can we meet
How many layers are protecting
our Essence and Heart

Can we meet naked
Soul to Soul
Heart to Heart
In Authenticity and Vulnerability
Intimately
Heart Essence
touching skin of Heart in tender sensitivity
Without hiding

Eye-gazing into the
infinte Forest of Essence
Landscape of amazing textures and colours

Can you be available
to be with me in Essence
To Grow
and Flow
With the Ebbs and Tides
Ups and Lows
In bright sunshine
In heavy storms, thunder and rain
In Exquisite beauty and deeply felt pain

Heart supporting Heart
Being and Seeing
Souls united
in Intimate soulship
Heartship
Walking soul beside soul
Sole beside sole
Barefeet
In the mysterious and wonderous
forest Path
In the Magical Land of Essence
And the Ordinary Extraordinary Land of Everyday Life

Grounded on Earth
Hearts united in Heart-Soul-land
In all Simplicity and Magic
Hands holding
Hearts unfolding
Jumping and playing with joy and spontaneity
Exploring, discovering in innocent curiosity

Poem, Healing and Loving bird

There is a bird in my Heart

She sings magical songs
So tender, so beautiful and warm
With beauty, magic and love
Tenderness and vulnerable power

She sings Love Songs
In unison with the birds
In the trees
And the soft gentle breeze

There is a tender bird in my Heart
She sings Healing Songs
Of Tenderness and Caressing Love
Her words is Offering Healing
To the wounds of weary and courageous souls

Her melody is gently caressing and
tendering the weary journeyer
On her courageous Heart path

The beautiful bird in me sees the beautiful bird in you
