Jeg faldt lige over min (korte) boganmeldelse af Dr. Daniel Wildcat " Red Alert " som jeg lavede under mit ophold ved Haskell Indian Nations University / Kansas University - Den tegner et godt billede af min tilgang til det meste af det jeg laver - At skabe værdi udfra det vi har omkring os - Hvilket også er hvad jeg netop nu forsøger gennem www.greenlandresearch.com - Vidensdeling, Projekter og Undersøgelser. Netop i den forbindelse - er jeg nu ved at skabe et grundlag for at udbygge portalen og et kommende kontor - at samle de mange universitets henvendelser jeg og andre får - eet sted - og give dem bedre svar, løsninger og facilitere hvad de har brug for af hjælp - dele svarene - så vi kan træffe bedre beslutninger på et oplyst sagligt grundlag - og at den forskning der foregår om Grønland også bliver baseret på det der vitterlig ER grønlandsk viden

1. RED
ALERT
response

“We
haven’t
really
begun
to
understand
the
damage
we
are
bringing
to
bear
on
the
sustainability
of
our
planet”
says
executive
director
of
UN
environment
programme,
Achim
Steiner.
This
quote
says
most
of
what
Dr.
wildcats
book
is
circling
around.
The
fact
that
we
now
are
in
a
state
of
over
consuming
the
world
into
a
collapse.
It
would
be
fair
to
say
that
all
options
at
this
time
should
be
open
for
discussion
and
for
realization.
I
want
to
build
the
response
letter
to
Dr.Wildcat
on
the
“
web
of
life
“
quote
that
he
mentions
on
page
5.
This
for
me
gives
the
an
exact
description
on
what
this
is
all
about
and
what
context
I
want
to
put
this
in.
If
we
could
go
back
to
basic
and
only
use
what
we
need
,
if
we
could
adapt
to
an
indian
peoples
way
of
thinking.
To
live
in
harmony
with
nature
and
natures
resources.
This
world
could
be
a
great
place
to
live
with
a
lot
less
concerns.
If
we
could
eliminate
greed
and
money
I
think
we
would
have
a
good
platform
to
start.
When
this
is
said
we
have
to
respond
to
the
fact
that
we
didn’t
go
this
way
and
now
face
a
climate
changing
rapidly.
Few
years
ago
the
discussion
was
if
climate
change
was
natural
periodical
changes
in
weather
systems
or
human
created
problems.
Now
science
can
document
that
the
last
of
these
is
a
fact.
I
would
like
to
recognize
that
we
western
thinking
people
could
learn
a
great
deal
of
indignious
peoples
sustainable
way
of
living,
but
I
also
recognize
the
truth
of
today
that
we
cant
change
the
past.
We
can
learn
from
it.
So
from
this
standpoint
I
think
we
should
build
the
life
web
of
today,
based
on
the
back
to
basic
principle.
I
agree
to
indigenous
peoples
view
and
traditions
that
say
that
reality
is
more
than
facts
and
figures,
it
should
be
a
matter
of
taking
respect,responsibilities
and
humillity
into
all
aspects
of
life
and
living
beings.
But
is
this
a
possibility
today..
?
How
can
we
make
the
chinese
understand
that
the
American
and
western
way
of
living
isn’t
what
they
should
want…how
can
we
explain
..how
can
we
convince
the
less
developed
countries…now
when
they
have
seen
what
consuming
can
give..they
wont
forget..so
the
RED
ALERT
should
be
a
matter
of
damage
control
and
finding
ways
to
reduce
the
impact
of
the
peoples
consuming
and
exploitation
of
mother
earth..
and
finding
solutions
to
what
the
impacts
will
cause..along
with
an
good
example
of
what
the
life
web
in
the
future
could
look
like
in
an,
for
example,
indigenous
peoples
inspired
way
of
living.
Indigneous
realism
,
as
mentioned
in
the
book,
would
support
above
three
lines
well.
The
new
life
web
should
contain
a
change
of
mentality
and
a
change
of
culture
towards
becoming
aware
of
the
serious
and
dangerous
position
we
have
brought
mother
earth
and
ourselves
in.Though
this
awareness,
in
my
opinion,
cannot
come
with
scary
scenario
lectures
from
either
indigenous
peoples
or
from
scientists..this
has
to
come
from
within
your
mindset..so
we
need
to
setup
longterm
changing
of
our
lifestyle,
becoming
a
part
of
a
sustainable
life
web.

2. This
book
is
for
me
an
interesting
and
inspirational
way
of
how
we
can
change
our
way
of
living,
and
how
we
could
take
on
many
of
indigenous
peoples
life
values
and
use
them
in
a
new
and
constructive
way
of
living
on
earth.
As
for
my
own
country
Greenland,
we
are
experiencing
the
changes
and
climate
impacts
with
our
eyes
,which
would
be
the
eye
opener
everybody
would
practically
need
to
understand
where
we
stand
at
this
point
in
time.
Unfortunately
it
is
then
quite
too
late
to
do
something
about
it
by
then..but
this
shows
that,
apparently,
this
is
the
only
way
for
people
to
take
it
seriously
enough.
The
red
alert
is
visual,
by
far,
in
Greenland.
This
makes
me
understand
that
this
must
have
a
very
high
priority
where
we
live,
but
I
do
not
understand
why
it
is
not
high
on
the
political
agenda
..If
we
cannot
do
it
in
Greenland
where
we
see
and
feel
the
changes..how
could
we
then
make
this
top
priority
elsewhere
?
Dr.Wildcat
asks
the
fundamental
question”
can
we
act
boldly,irrespective
of
a
guaranteed
outcome?
“
yes..is
the
answer..if
we
are
aware
that
we
can
find
the
solution
to
a
new
way
of
thinking
life..
within
the
native
wisdom
which
has
proven
its
existence
and
justification
over
several
hundreds
of
years..we
should
listen
and
learn..
we
need
to
step
out
of
our
comfortzones
..not
to
be
ignorants
and
selfish..to
build
a
secure
and
decent
world
for
our
children
to
live
in..
isn’t
that
reason
enough
..It
makes
me
angry
to
read
this
book,
because
it
is
so
right
and
so
obvious
what
is
written
and
documented
in
Red
Alert..now
we
just
need
the
western
world
to
make
a
similar
version
of
red
alert..based
on
lifevalues
similar.
We
must
forget
all
about
“one
size
fits
all”
we
need
to
open
our
eyes
and
listen..
we
need
to
hear
the
different
statements
about
what
is
actually
happening
from
the
people
and
places
who
are
experiencing
it.
We
need
now
to
collaborate
everybody
,not
point
fingers.
We
need
to
forget
about
greed
and
selfishness.
As
it
is
said
on
page
60
by
Chief
Joseph
”
we
may
quarrel
about
things
on
earth
..
however
this
RED
ALERT
is
an
invitation
to
start
a
dialogue
without
being
quarrelsome”…
This
is
exactly
what
I
think
this
book
is
all
about..
an
invitation..
a
good
example
of
how
we
can
collaborate..via
dialogues..
Every
people
,every
country
should
do
a
RED
ALERT..on
this
platform
,
and
only
on
this..
the
world
should
agree
to
make
a
new
life
web
..
based
on
true
and
sustainable
values
just
like
indigenous
people
did
before
western
powers
and
technology
came
and
ruined
it.
Unfortunately
it
seems
to
me
that
time
is
running
out..the
speed
of
what
we
have
started
will
and
can
only
be
stopped
by
mother
earth.
I
like
the
comment
from
Dr.
Wildcat
“
This
Alert
is
a
wakeup
call”
,
this
book
with
indignious
peoples
life
views,
serves
the
wakeup
call
very
well.
“
Wake
up
and
act..
responsible
!
“
