When we started developing the website, we read the posts of Rosane regarding Environment & Manking in our orkut community. She reflects the things so nicely that it is understood very easily by all. So, an idea came to our mind to present her knowledge and innovation through blogs by attaching it to our website. In this way, we can help lots of people (that is the mission of our group).

When we sent her a mail discussing this idea, we got a reply in a day. You yourself read her views on writing the blog:

"The peace I have today is different from the peace I’ve dreamed one day.
Only with time, have I learned that peace is to take responsibilities and fulfill them; is to have serenity in the most difficult moments of life.
Today I want to hear and speak words that build. I want to have the courage to cry or to smile whenever I feel like doing it...
I want to accept with humbleness that I don’t know everything, but I want to share the little I know.
I like to remember that nature is so exuberant exactly because the differences it shows in its creatures. Each one of us is special, on Earth, and we have the mission that the Divine Creator has entrusted us.
I want to bring: peace, joy and much news."

Packaging that turns into trees.



Paul Stamets, an American mycologist, invented 'The Life Box', a packing box cardboard, impregnated with a mixture of spores and seeds that may be planted to grow on trees. Just rip the box, plant it in the soil and sprinkle with water.
The Life Box
suite of products is based on the synergy of fungi, spores and seeds infuse together in packaging materials that can be planted. The Tree of Life is made of recycled paper fiber. In this fiber is inserted a great variety of tree seeds, sprinkled with spores of mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi protect and care for young seedlings. Fungi "flow" or germinate to form a bond with the cells of the root that extends to the ground with a web thin network of cells called mycelium. Mothers mycelium of nursery seed, provide water and nutrients, thus protecting the growing trees from disease, starving and drought.

The Life Box can be used in packaging of various products such as DVD / CD, shipping boxes and boxes of pizza.
