I personally know this entire community, and the amount of planetary work that can be done with little money is unfathomable to many people who do not understand the value of sustainability. There are many millionaires on the planet, and some of them are very good people who donate federal reserve notes to people in need. They also spend a lot of this money in the form of credit and banking. The problem with dealing in fractional reserve banking is that money is created out of thin air and the incessant "need" for this money keeps people in debt slavery forever. People who constantly circulate these non-backed paper notes through consumerism, are also contributing to the commerce and transportation of massive goods by way of petroleum fuel. What the Garden of Eden is doing, is giving away FREE food that is harvested in their gardens or donated to them or rescued from landfills. I'm talking really GOOD food prepared by amateur chefs, but you wouldn't know they were armatures if you tasted the divine nectar that is spawned from the Garden. 40,000 FREE meals are fed to homeless people and other people in need every year from this community with very little use of money. I don't know one millionaire on the planet who could accomplish this feat. Nothing could be more efficient than providing a service or product that is produced with very little material resources and leaves a Zero carbon footprint.
