To help people realize the importance of rehabilitating
Ecozombies, Project NatureConnect at the Institute of Global
Education offers the following information :
1. ECOZOMBIES:
Ecozombies are individuals whose psyche has been dangerously
desensitized to the welfare of the global life community and
its people. An ecozombie's deadened thinking looks right through
important opportunities to improve personal, environmental or
social wellness. You can sense that a whole area of consciousness
is missing in an ecozombie. Without it, things that must change,
don't. Most healing works better when done in connection with
nature.
Ecozombies have a very low eco-emotion IQ, If you want to

2. SOCIAL CHANGE HAPPENS:
More than fifty years ago people became acutely aware of the
dangers of putting foreign chemicals
into the environment yet that practice has not changed.
This is also true of many additional environmental and social
threats. However, during this same period people have changed.
We have made dramatic, environmentally
threatening personal and social changes. We have learned
to excessively use and depend upon air conditioners, television,
air travel, computers, drugs and many other high impact technologies
that were not available 50 years ago. Sadly, we have changed
back from low to high gas mileage automobiles, too.
3. THE PSYCHOLOGY OF CHANGE:
There is a profound psychological difference between the preceding
examples. In our conquest of nature, as part of nature, we have
hurt and conquered inherent, nature-loving, parts of our psyche.
This desensitizes our thinking with respect to the welfare of
our social and natural environment. We become unchangeable, runaway,
ecozombies with respect to them. The loss of our innate
love of Mother Earth is replaced with a demanding love for money
and the technological replacements for nature that it buys. We
feverently change to substitutes, even when we know they are
destructive.

4. UNCONTROLLED DISORDER:
Until ecozombies safely restore to consciousness their now subconscious
sensitivity and love for life, contemporary humanity is a danger
to itself and nature. Ecozombies think like cancer works. They
become runaway because they avoid aggravating and thinking with
their injured, desensitized, sensitivities that otherwise sustain
life in balance.
5. BUILD RESPONSIBLE RELATIONSHIPS:
There is a readably available antidote that rehabilitates the
ecozombie mentality. It is a nature-reconnecting social technology
that heals 48 injured natural senses thereby increasing ecozombie
sensitivity and wellness. This helps the human race survive the
destructiveness of the human race. The antidote enables ecozombies
to let sensory contact with nature help them rejuvenate their
deadened sensitivity to the sanctity and healing properties of
life. This restores the reasonableness of their spirit, caring,
and global citizenship so they may think and act with it, as
of old. The antidote is mostly used by people with a high Eco
EmotionIQ. REMINDER: If you want to determine your Eco-Emotion

6. ACCOUNTABLILTY:
If you recognize the ecozombie threat and its disastrous consequences
we invite you to join the 2001 Ecozombie
Rehabilitation Team, learn to use the antidote, and share
it with others.
