Surrounded by piles of overripe fruit in their Brooklyn backyard, Afro-Dominican twins Dr. Miguelina Rodriguez and Dr. Griselda Rodriguez-Solomon clasp their hands and close their eyes. As they sit on opposite sides of their sacred altar, the rich red roses and paisley tablecloth juxtapose the brown fruit behind them. It's an art scene they curated to honor their spirituality and to challenge Adam and Eve folklore.
As the Genesis story goes, the first man and woman lived mercifully in the Garden of Eden — a nonviolent, vegetarian space for God's creation. Adam and Eve were to follow one order: Never eat the forbidden fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Woman (Eve) falls to temptation and, as a result, woman is cursed with the pain of childbirth and subordination to her husband.
"The idea that humans fell from grace because women were tempted by the devil, by the snake, to feed the Apple to Adam had a profound impact on a woman's psyche and on the human psyche, so much so that we are still plagued by this idea that women damned humanity," Griselda tells me a few days after her photoshoot over Zoom. Chuckling, she expresses her excitement to turn the traditional imagery on its head.
The sisters, also known as the Brujas of Brooklyn, launched their platform after surviving their Saturn Return — the astrological occurrence between your 27th and 30th birthday when Saturn completes its orbit around the sun and returns to the exact position it was when you were born. It's also known as the sporadic entrance to adulthood and maturity. The sisters endured many similarities and parallels through their return, like respective breakups and health issues. Their sisterhood, Afro-Indigenous spirituality, and bond were essential to their survival, making the twins empathize with women experiencing hardship alone. They decided to create their first retreat focused on healing, which marked the beginning of their platform. Soon, a community of 12 women grew to more than 20,000 followers on Instagram.
At first glance, the twins embody edgy Dominican-Americans raised in New York City in the '80s — what people on the island labeled the "Dominican York." Talking to them more, I discover that they can spit out the lyrical storytelling in a Nas song, bar per bar, and reference a bachata or classic merengue for any moment — a result of being bicultural and a far reality from the "scary" and "mysterious" stigma that brujas have.
Most often referred to as "demonic" and "devils work," the Ph.D., Social Science Brujas are focused on disbanding the fear and mystery tied to ancestral Afro-Indigenous rituals. "Unfortunately, that mystery is not because the practice itself is mysterious and dark; it's because main society and religion has made it so that we have this fear of brujas, brujería, and santería," Miguelina tells me.
Growing up in Bushwick, Brooklyn, and raised in the Dominican Republic for a few years, the twins' Afro-Indigenous spirituality started at a young age. "It was an interesting experience growing up because we grew up very Catholic with Catholic saints and going to church," says Griselda. "On the flip side, in a parallel universe almost, we had the altars. My mother would go to the 21 Divisions, where people would get mounted." The 21 Divisions, also known as Dominican Vudu, is a syncretic religion— a fusion of various beliefs — rooted in African and Indigenous practices and rituals.
Though often presented as a Catholic-based collective, religion and spirituality in Latin America is far more complex and layered than people assume. After it was demonized for centuries and hidden behind closed doors, now more African and Indigenous descendants are openly embracing hybrid, personalized practices such as santería (way of the saints) and brujería (witchcraft). For many, it's a way of unpacking anti-Blackness within their communities and suppressing the many myths implemented by organized religion and society. It's essential to decolonize belief; after all, how can one accept ancestry without ancestral spirituality?
Social media has undeniably played a significant role in the rebranding of the "bruja" in 2020. Through dietary work, holistic wellness, and readings, today's brujas are not only clarifying folk myths but they are also highlighting the miseducation our communities were subjected to throughout history.
For Miguelina and Griselda, this means creating a mix of primary healing modalities that include extensive academic training, Kundalini yoga, and nutrition-based preventative care. It also means tackling conversations on race, religion, gender, and identity on their Instagram pages and beyond.
After it was stigmatized by Catholic colonizers, the twins are reclaiming the word bruja/x and rewriting its false depiction as a "demonic seductress." Though identical, there's one distinction between the two women, and it's what Miguelina playfully refers to as the "stereotypical witches' mole" that sits on the side of Griselda's nose. The women live loud and unapologetically challenge mainstream European standards by non-assimilation — embracing their Blackness through identity statements like wearing their hair naturally, which is still considered rebellious in their culture. Griselda says that hearing phrases like "maldita bruja" —which translates to "a damned witch" — is a common phrase that's often shouted toward women with curly hair.
"The word bruja for me, it's very political… it has been demonized for so many years. And a lot of it, we're starting to understand, is because women are inherently powerful people," said Miguelina. "I think that when a woman taps into that power, she becomes so powerful, and the patriarchy is scared of that. So, they start demonizing things like our menstrual cycle, when we choose to be with women, or when we choose to be with multiple men. When you look at the women during witch trials in Europe, and here in New England in the United States, they were medicine women, they were doulas, they were midwives. They were single, they left their spouses, and here we are reclaiming that word proudly."
It's all intersectional: Feminist empowerment and the current decolonization of the mind and spirit are a means of regaining power. "There's a very profound power in a woman's womb… when you look at the creation, the development of capitalism, witch hunts were very intentional at repressing that power and women, and that's where you get the demonization of the womb," adds Griselda.
Their craft is dedicated to womb-healing. They practice Yoni — an ancient Sanskrit word that means sacred space, womb, or vagina — in their retreats and workshops and tap into the women's womb-power in an act they call "woke womb work." According to the 7th generation principle believed by Indigenous nations across the Western Hemisphere, seven generations heal before us and seven after us. Understanding that our genes carry trauma, these workshops are meant to heal inherited generational trauma, particularly for Black women: trauma from enslaved ancestors to the emotional toll of living in oppressive states to day-to-day micro-aggressions and racism.
As light workers, the twins are reclaiming ancestral practices and rituals with the intent to heal and bring solace and to dissolve the negative connotations rooted in anti-Blackness.
Griselda recalls her confusion in witnessing her mother practice these rituals privately and then disown the act because of societal pressure. Throughout Latin America, syncretic traditions have direct lineages to Yoruba, Vodou, and Macumba — and has served as resistance throughout historical genocide and cultural erasure.
The transatlantic slave trade led enforcement of European language and Christianity on African and Indigenous people, which led to cultural respectability politics. These beliefs dictated that a Black person who was "better presented" and "closer to white mainstream" would be more respected. Ideas like the "good Christian woman" spawn from these respectability politics. The phrase was coined in the African American community, but this experience is not unique to the rest of the diaspora in Latin America. The Dominican Republic is the only nation in the world to have the Holy Bible on its flag, which claims Christianity as the land's official religion -— despite there being many devout healers and descendants that practice Afro-Indigenous spirituality there.
As professors, scholars, and spiritual healers, the Brujas of Brooklyn vowed to create spaces for women to share and recover the historical legacy robbed from them due to anti-Blackness and the negative connotations that labeled these practices.
With their workshops that serve up to 100 people, these traditions are no longer practiced in private but embraced openly, which simultaneously informs elders while passing down ways of healing to the next generation. "As brujas, as one of the millions that have risen through our time, we come to turn those narratives on their head," says Griselda. For women, Black women specifically, it's not just about reclaiming their spirituality and ancestry. It's survival, healing, and tapping into the power many never knew they had due to these narratives. This ownership and power is igniting a new time — one that couldn't come without the rise of women empowerment and the fight against anti-Blackness within these communities.

Research individual companies in your desired niche: If possible, it's always better to become an affiliate directly with a company (if they have an internal affiliate program), as no one else will be dipping into your commission rate. This is the preferred route for most of the prominent affiliate marketers, including Pat Flynn. Unfortunately, it's also the most work, as you'll have to do the research yourself to see who offers programs (they're usually listed in the website footer).
21. Facebook – Facebook swap shops are great for selling things locally. It's like CraigsList, but a little easier. You simply search for swap shops in your area and ask to join the group. Once you're in, take a picture of the item, write a quick description with the price and post it. It doesn't get much easier than that. You can generally expect to get about what you would get at a yard sale, maybe a little more. Online Income
Teachers aren't the only ones migrating from shuttered schools to remote work. Speech language pathologists work with K-12 students to identify communication disorders and develop individualized education plans to address their needs. And with schools currently practicing remote learning, school districts are seeking remote workers to provide this important specialized service via teletherapy. Some opportunities are available immediately to serve for the remainder of this school year, while others may begin before fall. You must have proper licensure for the state in which you'll work.
18. CraigsList – Some things don't ship very well. Other things may make you feel uncomfortable to sell to someone across the country. Anytime you're selling a large item or something you just don't want to ship, Craigslist is a great place to go. It's simple to list your item (again, take good pictures!). If you don't like the idea of putting your phone number out there, the interested individual can send you a message to your inbox without even getting your email address.
Find an audience for your passion or hobby and you're all set to make money online doing something you love via a niche website. That of course, is easier said than done. Creating a profitable niche website takes time and is not intended for the faint of heart. But, if you can hurdle the steep challenges and positively answer a few key questions on whether the website business idea you're thinking about is profitable, then you can begin building it and eventually monetize through advertising, affiliates, or other relevant digital products.
Ever since the idea of online auctions came into existence, the online selling market has been on the rise. Many are interested, but don't know how to get started. There are still all kinds of ways to make money by selling online, whether you're selling what you already have or buying and selling like a store. Before we get started, here are a few general tips when selling anything online: Online Income
And while it will take time to build up a big-enough audience to attract advertisers and other ways to make extra income from your podcast, the opportunity is there—though it all starts with getting podcast hosting and launching your show. John Lee Dumas interviews entrepreneurs seven days a week for his podcast Entrepreneur on Fire and now makes more than $200,000 a month from it. In fact, John publishes all his income online and showed that he's made almost $13 million since launching in 2012. Internet Money
You have no idea how valuable this information is for me. Recently, I was forced to leave my beloved career of working with the senior members within my community who suffer from the insurmountable impact of the stigmas associated with being diagnosed (labeled) with severe mental illness. I was blessed with the ability to coach, mentor, train, and share my formulas for what contributed to my successes and failures (that inevitably empowered me to gain full remission over the past 12 years). Internet Money
What It Is: If you're already fluent in two languages, why not put your skills to use and work as a translator? Translators are often required to translate documents or audio recordings from one language into another. You can work for yourself as a freelance translator, or apply to work with companies like Welocalize that offer a wide range of remote translation services.
No matter how good your marketing skills are, you'll make less money on a bad product than you will on a valuable one. Take the time to study the demand for a product before promoting it. Make sure to research the seller with care before teaming up. Your time is worth a lot, and you want to be sure you're spending it on a product that is profitable and a seller you can believe in. Work From Home
No matter what method you choose to make money online, understand that you might be able to make some money fast, but for the sizable returns, you'll need significant sweat equity. However, a year from now, you'll be happy you started today. Remember, time is far more valuable than money. Focus on creating passive income streams that will free up your time so that you can quit the rat race and focus on the things that matter. Online Income
Which sounds easier? Instead of spending months building Domain Authority with blogging and guest posts to get more organic traffic, you just have to increase the conversion rate by 2%. This can include landing page optimization, testing your calls-to-action, and having a conversion rate optimization strategy in place. By testing and optimizing your site, you'll get far better results with much less effort. Online Income
So the lesson here is that while you might be working from home now, this might eventually translate into living and working abroad—and living the dream. Opdyke's advice? "Be as productive as you possibly can. Be over-productive. Step up your game so that when all of this over, you have some potential leverage to talk to your bosses about trying a work-at-home life. That's assuming, of course, you like your work-at-home life. Not everyone will. But if you feel the freedom those of us working remotely feel, then now, amid this crisis, is a great opportunity for you to shine so that bosses take note." Affiliate Marketing
But hope remains. As shelter-in-place restrictions keep most nonessential workers home, opportunities for remote work have been growing. Brie Reynolds, career development manager for FlexJobs — an online job market specializing in flexible and remote work — says the site saw a 4 percent increase in remote job listings in March, compared with February. Plus, with so many jobs shifting home, any stigma against employing remote workers is easing. "Overall, companies seem to be pleasantly surprised at how well remote work is working for them," Reynolds says. "So that's great. It is providing good solutions right now."
I came upon this site because I've been seriously thinking about supplementing my income; I would like something interesting and that doesn't take up all my free time since I have a job already at a doctor's office. Also, I have my bachelor's in psychology. The remote customer service roles, VIPKid, and freelance proofreading caught my eye. Certainly open to any other opportunities and ideas.
Research individual companies in your desired niche: If possible, it's always better to become an affiliate directly with a company (if they have an internal affiliate program), as no one else will be dipping into your commission rate. This is the preferred route for most of the prominent affiliate marketers, including Pat Flynn. Unfortunately, it's also the most work, as you'll have to do the research yourself to see who offers programs (they're usually listed in the website footer).
Step back from the full-time grind and try offering your knowledge and skills as an independent consultant. This can be a particularly attractive move for pre-retirees in a variety of industries hoping to ease into retirement, as it lets you trim back your hours as you see fit but maintain your senior-level pay rate if you stick with your area of expertise. You might even be able to talk to your current employer about transitioning a full-time position into a contract role. Otherwise, a number of online job boards — such as Upwork and FlexJobs — and staffing agencies — such as Wahve (which specializes in working with pre-retirees) and Robert Half — can help connect you with clients.
It's free to become a Hostgator affiliate, and their tiered payouts are substantial — you can make $65 per signup if you provide Hostgator with 1-5 signups per month, and up to $125 per signup if you provide Hostgator with over 21 signups. You can either embed tracking links on your site or create a custom coupon code. Since Hostgator provides a 45 day money-back gurantee, it's low-risk for your website visitors to try it out.
Although working from home is not usually connected with the medical field, a surprising number of medical jobs can be performed from home. Occupations include medical transcription, medical coding, and virtual nursing. Even some pharmacists work from home reviewing prescriptions, overseeing transfers from one pharmacy to another, and providing counseling on the use of medications. Internet Money
Additionally, any user can start free and upgrade when they decide it's worthwhile, so it's easy for your site visitors to give the tool a try. You can provide their affiliate link in your email signature, on a blog post, or in an email newsletter, and Invoice Ninja provides both logos and ads to make it easy to promote their tool. If your social media followers or website visitors are typically online entrepreneurs or freelancers, this could be a good partnership to consider. Work From Home
It doesn't pay much, but if you're a healthy person and want to make a bit of extra money online, the AchieveMint app will reward you for doing things like walking, tracking your food, or taking health surveys. AchieveMint works by connecting to fitness apps you might already be using like Fitbit, RunKeeper, Healthkit, and MyFitnessPal and then giving you points for certain actions. For every 10,000 points, you earn $10 with no limit on your earnings.
"In recent years, YouTube has grown into the go-to source for all manner of video courses and guides," says International Living. "Instructors can monetize their videos by charging a subscription fee or password protecting content for paying customers only." This article shares some tips from one real estate agent who made $100,000 in one month on YouTube. Another piece of advice from International Living: Get to know the phrases that people search for. To find potential search phrases, start typing "how to [your topic]" into YouTube's search bar and notice what phrases are generated in the auto-fill dropdown. Make sure to use the same keywords when you write your video title, description, and tags.
Starting a podcast, like making a YouTube channel or blog, comes down to telling interesting stories and building an engaged audience. I'm probably sounding like a broken record by now, but you need a niche that you're interested in and there's already a demand for. Come up with a list of topics you'd like to talk about and then search iTunes charts, Google Trends and other podcast research sites to see what's currently out there and popular.
You know those top-down cooking or craft videos you just can't seem to get away from these days? There are people out there making a living from them, especially those that also run their own food blogs or travel blogs. In fact, a whopping 78% of B2C companies depend on user-generated content (like these videos) for their marketing campaigns. You can sign up as a creator on a site like Darby Smart and potentially work with brands like Nordstrom, Mattel, and BarkBox. Or, learn how to master PPC advertising and you can use the content to build your YouTube following and monetize through ads and views.
Coursera's affiliate program runs on the Linkshare network and offers a commission ranging from 20% to 45% with bonuses for strong performance. Courses and Specializations are generally priced between $29 and $99. As a Coursera affiliate, you get access to professionally-designed banners and a monthly affiliate newsletter with curated content recommendations. Affiliate Marketing
If you've got a way with words and expertise in a niche, there are plenty of sites that will pay for articles and content you write—plus guest blogging is also one of the best ways to build up the authority of your own blog over time. Think of the sites you read regularly. What can you contribute to them that would be interesting? Research your niche and then look for ways to pitch articles. Many sites will simply have a submission or contact link in the footer. To get started, check out my full guide to becoming a freelance writer on the side and then submit your articles to places like Listverse, A List Apart, International Living, FundsforWriters, and Textbroker.

If your audience is looking to launch an online business, migrate their ecommerce platform, or simply interested in ecommerce content, we encourage you to apply for the BigCommerce affiliate program. Our team will carefully review your application. Once approved, you will receive access to support, tracking, reporting, payments, and have your own unique affiliate link to track every referral you generate. BigCommerce is committed to the success of our affiliate partners.

Do you have photo skills or live in an area where images are in demand? "Stock photography websites are huge repositories of photographs, covering almost every possible subject you could imagine," advises International Living. So how does it work? Photographers can upload their images to any one of a number of huge databases, allowing magazine editors, designers or any organization with a website to buy them. And the beauty of stock websites: Photos can be sold any number of times—so you can continue to make money without any effort. Photography sites to check out include Shutterstock, Photoshelter and Getty Images. Work From Home
An e-commerce merchant wanting to reach a wider base of Internet users and shoppers may hire an affiliate. An affiliate could be the owner of multiple websites or email marketing lists; the more websites or email lists that an affiliate has, the wider his network. The hired affiliate then communicates and promotes the products offered on the e-commerce platform to his network. The affiliate does this by implementing banner ads, text ads, or links on its multiple owned websites or via email to its clientele. Firms use advertisements in the form of articles, videos, and images to draw an audience's attention to a service or product.
5. Fiverr – Fiverr is a great place to make a few bucks or spend a few bucks if you need some of the services people offer. Basically, everything is $5. You either pay $5 or charge $5. They call them "gigs." You can offer your services however you choose. If you sell art and you're fine selling pieces for $5 each, that's a gig. If you're a graphic designer and you want to offer your services for $10/hour, simply offer a 30 minute gig. If they need two hours of graphic design, they pay you $20, or $10/hour by buying four gigs. Online Income
No matter how good your marketing skills are, you'll make less money on a bad product than you will on a valuable one. Take the time to study the demand for a product before promoting it. Make sure to research the seller with care before teaming up. Your time is worth a lot, and you want to be sure you're spending it on a product that is profitable and a seller you can believe in.
Do you constantly come up with witty one-liners? Do you dream of the days of Mad Men-style advertising? If you've got some branding chops or just come up with imaginative copy, there are lots of opportunities to make money online through company naming and slogan contests. If you think you have a knack for names check out the Squadhelp platform where you can earn a little extra money online by naming brands, services, products, company slogans and even help out on the logo design front if you've got the chops. Work From Home
Join a startup accelerator: Another great option is to apply to a startup accelerator like Y Combinator, 500 startups, or TechStars, where a group of investors will help coach you, connect you with potential partners, and provide startup cash in return for a small stake in your company. The competition is tough to get into these, so don't rely on them as your only path forward. Work From Home
BeRush is the affiliate program for SEMRush, a SaaS company that specializes in SEO and competitive analysis tools for digital marketers. Their affiliate program offers a 40% recurring commission over the lifetime of a referral's subscription, which translates to up to $160 per month per referral. Plus, they offer a very generous 10-year cookie life.
Powered by Commission Junction, TripAdvisor's affiliate program pays a 50% commission off the revenue generated from a user clicking on links and/or ads that send them to a TripAdvisor partner site. Which means, unlike most other affiliate programs in this list, you don't have to wait for your referral to make a purchase to earn your commission. As soon as someone comes from your website and clicks on one of the ads or links on the TripAdvisor website, you get paid. Internet Money
"Life coaching is a thought-provoking and creative process that helps people focus on both personal and professional goals," advises International Living. "People use life coaching to overcome fears, boost their self-confidence, create goals and instill success-oriented habits." You can find thousands of online training programs on how to be a life coach, and many certification programs offer an entire website setup once training is completed. If travel is your area of expertise, you can even become a travel coach. Read this story about a travel writer who became a travel coach. Internet Money
Provide administrative support from the comfort of your own home and schedule. Virtual assistants can perform a range of services, from scheduling and email management to social media strategizing and event planning. And you can seek to do it full time via an agency or independently on a gig-by-gig basis. Boldly is a staffing agency hiring full-time assistants to work from home in 23 states. Or you can post your services on freelance job boards such as FreeUp and Upwork to connect with potential clients directly. Internet Money
According to Jennifer Stevens, executive editor at International Living, the list is vast, but it isn't comprehensive. "We created it to give people a sense for the scope of opportunity out there," says Stevens. "We've written lots about the different ways expats abroad fund their lives. Sometimes it's with online work—like writing or drop-shipping. Sometimes it's in-person services they provide, from running a consignment store to wedding planning. Certainly, the online opportunities provide great flexibility and portability. But it's worth pointing out that business owners in many places tell us that it's much easier to start a business abroad because it's often less expensive and less bureaucratic than it is at home."
How to Get It: Customer service is the biggest work-at-home field, with companies including Spiegel, Hilton, Best Western, HSN, 1-800-FLOWERS and many others using at-home reps. Fill out an application with staffing companies such as Arise, Alpine Access, VIPdesk, LiveOps, and Convergys, all of which vet the companies who are hiring through them. If you need benefits, search through a staffing company that will hire you as an employee (Alpine Access, VIPdesk and Convergys do this) rather than an independent contractor. If you're a contractor, you may be asked to pay a small fee (between $15 and $35) for a background check. While a fee can be a sign of a scam, independent contractors are responsible for their own expenses. Online Income
Need more ideas on how to make money online? Another strategy is using webinars to market your product, service, or course. I've done webinars to promote my financial planning practice and to drum up interest in my online course for financial advisors. With a webinar, you're basically offering a lot of tips and advice for free — usually in a live format. At the end though, you pitch your paid product or service with the goal of securing a few deals.
Prior to that group, they had an online community for teachers looking for lesson plans. That probably sounds pretty random, but it's crazy the type of communities you can build and rally people around. If it's something that you're passionate about yourself and you want to connect with others that have that same passion, then an online community is something you should definitely consider. Online Income
This is the standard affiliate marketing structure. In this program, the merchant pays the affiliate a percentage of the sale price of the product after the consumer purchases the product as a result of the affiliate's marketing strategies. In other words, the affiliate must actually get the investor to invest in the product before they are compensated. Online Income
Take it seriously. Yes, you're applying for an online job. Yes, you can do the work in your underwear, but that doesn't mean it's not a "real job". You must treat it as such or they aren't going to treat you as a serious candidate. You aren't the only one who wants to work in their underwear. In fact, the competition online is likely higher than it is in your local area.
26. Services – You can offer a paid service, such as life coaching, blog coaching, goal setting or financial planning. Just be sure to investigate all the legal implications and make sure you're not claiming to be a professional if you're not one. With a service like this, you're basically using your blog to sell yourself. You'll need to convince people that you're worth buying and then be able to back up your claims once they purchase your service.
While some might think that starting a blog is an arduous effort, when you understand the precise steps you need to take, it becomes far easier. It all starts in the decision of choosing a profitable niche and picking the right domain name. From there, you need to build your offers. You can easily sell things like mini-email courses, training sessions and ebooks.
If you have experience with marketing, SEO, or a knack for getting people excited about the products and services you use on a regular basis, think about refining your skills and putting them to work making money online as a small business marketing consultant in your region—especially if you can become a local SEO expert and can help local clients rank higher in their search results.
Creating content and engaging with fans and customers is a time-consuming task that many businesses don't have the bandwidth to do in-house. As a result, they prefer to outsource the task. While some companies do have full-time in-house social media managers, it's often cheaper to hire a part-time remote worker for this role. This opens up positions for work-from-home freelancers.
You know those top-down cooking or craft videos you just can't seem to get away from these days? There are people out there making a living from them, especially those that also run their own food blogs or travel blogs. In fact, a whopping 78% of B2C companies depend on user-generated content (like these videos) for their marketing campaigns. You can sign up as a creator on a site like Darby Smart and potentially work with brands like Nordstrom, Mattel, and BarkBox. Or, learn how to master PPC advertising and you can use the content to build your YouTube following and monetize through ads and views.
Etsy: While Etsy's popularity has declined recently, it's still a great resource for selling handmade items online. No need for complex ecommerce sites or merchant accounts or any sort of automation. The company takes a commission of every sale and charges a small listing fee per item. But many still use Etsy as their primary source of income. The best part is that you can also sell digital products such as poster designs. Work From Home

The Fraudulent Science at COP21 Exposed
Before the ink had dried on the COP21 climate agreement, many from the food movement were reflecting on the process and plans worked on in Paris.
In their co-authored Washington Post op-ed piece, A Secret Weapon to Fight Climate Change: Dirt, Michael Pollan and Debbie Barker wrote, "Unfortunately, the world leaders who gathered in Paris this past week have paid little attention to the critical links between climate change and agriculture. That's a huge mistake and a missed opportunity."
Before we explore the case of fraud in Paris, let's first review the definitions of fraud:
1. Wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain.
2. A person or thing intended to deceive others, typically by unjustifiably claiming or being credited with accomplishments or qualities.
Following decades of public misinformation, today we know that the tobacco industry committed fraud by attempting to disconnect lung cancer from the smoking of cigarettes. And the state of New York is now investigating ExxonMobil for allegedly misleading the public about climate change.
So, following along on this idea of fraudulence, why has virtually every COP21 media article repeated the mistaken idea that the only strategy to fight climate change is the failed one to stop burning fossil fuels?
Why Would Industrial Ag Cover Up This Inconvenient Truth?
Yes, tobacco and Big Oil have been well compensated for committing "deception intended to result in financial or personal gain." So it's vital for the public to identify the latest corporate shenanigans using deception and black hat PR to deceive public officials for financial gain.
These would be the giants of the industrial agriculture industry, including Monsanto, Dow, DuPont, Syngenta, Bayer, McDonald's and the entire synthetic fertilizer industry—the corporations that have undercounted and misrepresented America's agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
Is the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Committing Accounting Fraud by Stating 10 Percent GHG From Ag When It's Known to Be Above 25 Percent?
Sadly, thanks to Big Ag's backroom political dealings in Washington, DC, the USDA and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have agreed on the ludicrous statement that agriculture contributed only about 10 percent of U.S. GHG emissions in 2013, when in fact it was more than 25 percent.
When this erroneous conclusion is corrected and the formerly hidden facts are well understood by policy leaders and the public, we'll be able to shift policies toward more regenerative, soil-honoring practices and then we'll see sales of pesticides and chemical fertilizers plummet.
It's plain to see why Monsanto and friends, via their high-level political appointees, influenced the U.S. and United Nations delegates at COP21. They eliminated agriculture and soils from the COP21 agenda and thus the final agreement—despite overwhelming evidence that soil sequestration (carbon farming) is the number one solution to stop the rise of CO2.
Luckily, There's a Secret Weapon
Barker and Pollan describe how "a third of the carbon in the atmosphere today used to be in the soil and modern farming is largely to blame." They point out that "practices such as the overuse of chemicals, excessive tilling and the use of heavy machinery disturb the soil's organic matter, exposing carbon molecules to the air, where they combine with oxygen to create carbon dioxide. Put another way: Human activity has turned the living and fertile carbon system in our dirt into a toxic atmospheric gas."
"It's possible to halt and even reverse this process," the writers add, "through better agricultural policies and practices." They go on to explain how "restoring carbon to the soil is not nearly as complicated as rethinking our transportation systems or replacing coal with renewable energy."
Watch Pollan's narration of Soil Solutions to Climate Problems video:
Ronnie Cummins and Katherine Paul of the Organic Consumers Association pursued this same point in their recent piece How World Leaders Can Solve Global Warming with Regenerative Farming. They describe how the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) set out to achieve "a legally binding and universal agreement to make sure the Earth doesn't get warmer than 2C above pre-industrial levels."
Quoting Cummins and Paul: "To meet that goal, the French government launched the 4/1000 Initiative which, distilled to simplest terms, says this: If, on a global scale, we increase the soil carbon content of the soil by .04 percent each year for the next 25 years, we can draw down a critical mass of excess carbon from the atmosphere and begin to reverse global warming."
Is the French initiative realistic? Yes, even by conservative estimates.
Industrial, degenerative farming practices—which include tilling, deforestation, wetlands destruction and the use of massive amounts of synthetic and toxic fertilizers and pesticides—have stripped 136 billion tons of carbon out of the soil and sent it up into the atmosphere. Using the French government's modest estimates, we can transfer, via enhanced plant photosynthesis, 150 billion tons of this carbon back into the soil in the next 25 years.
How do we achieve those numbers? All we have to do is help just 10 percent of the world's farmers and ranchers adopt regenerative organic agriculture, holistic grazing and land management practices ..."
For some reason, Greenpeace, 350.org and the climate movement think putting close to 100 percent of our policy and educational efforts into shutting down oil is our one last hope to stop climate change. This is madness. Can they really believe that fewer people will be driving cars in 2020 than in 2015? And don't they realize that every new hybrid or 100 percent electric car in its making will contribute as much greenhouse gas emissions as would driving a five-year-old Toyota?
On the brighter side, more and more people are now looking under their feet:
Some foodie dude named @michaelpollan explains why soil can help slow climate change. Seriously! https://t.co/d0mDoFdCwO— Bill McKibben (@Bill McKibben)1450089843.0
Soil not oil. It's under our feet. #whereistand https://t.co/7fT2V6quSU— Naomi Klein (@Naomi Klein)1449356177.0
Dispatch From COP21: The Convenient Truth About Soil by Seth Itzkan and Karl Thidemann states: "Ohio State University scientist Rattan Lal refers to soil restoration as 'low-hanging fruit' and says it can serve as a bridge to climate safety during the transition to a non-fossil fuel economy. In a 2014 white paper, the Rodale Institute showed that regenerative organic farming could capture carbon dioxide in quantities exceeding global emissions."
Indeed, soils are the only suitable reservoir for the excess carbon in the atmosphere.
To achieve COP21's 1.5 degree Celsius target, it's pretty obvious that we need to lower CO2 back to below 350 ppm. Yet the Paris climate agreement makes it likely it will be more like 425+ ppm in the coming decades. Unless we look to the solution under our feet, we may be reading more stories in the New Yorker such as The Siege of Miami or in National Geographic's Seafood May Be Gone by 2048, Study Says.
COP21's plan will lead to 90 percent of the world's species disappearing by 2060 unless we sequester soil carbon and stop the ocean acidification (caused by excess carbon falling into the seas). As plankton die every year, the planet faces a looming oxygen shortage.
The Surge in Soil Interest Leads to a Tipping Point
Despite industrial ag's obfuscations, the good news story of soils couldn't stay hidden. 2015 will be remembered as the year of soil, for it brought numerous articles, videos and public figures speaking out on the timely topic. In California, 900 attendees of a Soil Not Oil conference all helped jump-start this growing movement to reverse climate change via soil sequestration.
Our message is loud and clear: the soil story's time has come Paris, France #COP21 Healthy soil can store carbon. https://t.co/PaR55kx62Q— Kiss the Ground (@Kiss the Ground)1449875214.0
And then, of course, there's the French "4 per 1000" announcement of a new program for carbon sequestration in agriculture.
"I am stunned," said Andre Leu, president of IFOAM Organics International, the world's leading organic farmers and producers association, based in Bonn, Germany. "This is a game changer, because soil carbon is now central to how the world manages climate change. After all the years of advocating for this at UN Climate Change meetings and being the lone voice in the wilderness, it has taken off so quickly and now is global, with numerous countries and key institutions supporting it. However this is true of all tipping points."
This article has posed some of the hard questions that we all need to be asking. In my forthcoming EcoWatch article in January 2016, I'll be presenting next steps for implementing the climate solution under our feet.

How World Leaders Can Solve Global Warming With Regenerative Farming
Material Revolutions: Shirts Made from Shellfish, Biodegradable Rum Bottles and Reusable Fast Food Containers
In the age of consumption, sustainability innovations can help shift cultural habits and protect dwindling natural resources. Improvements in source materials, product durability and end-of-life disposal procedures can create consumer products that are better for the Earth throughout their lifecycles. Three recent advancements hope to make a difference.
1. Allbirds Shirts Made From Shellfish
Sustainable sneaker start-up Allbirds is known for its thoughtfulness for consumers and the environment. The four-year-old shoe company has become hugely popular by creating comfortable shoes made from responsibly sourced materials like tencel and wool, reported Fast Company.

Recently, Allbirds launched its debut apparel line with garments for men and women made with eco-friendly materials that have a low carbon footprint, the report said.

Introduced along with the line is a new t-shirt material called "TrinoXO," which is made from wool and discarded snow crab shells from Canada's seafood industry, reported CNBC and CNN. The shells are the "number two discarded resource on earth," Allbirds claims, reported Men's Health.

"Discarded material is the holy grail when it comes to sustainable fibers," Jad Finck, Allbirds head of innovation and sustainability, told Fast Company. "It's far better for the environment than getting raw materials from scratch."

The shells have antimicrobial properties that keep clothes fresh even after hours of wear, without the need to add "extractive" materials like zinc or silver, Men's Health reported. This allows for longer periods of wear between washes, reducing clothes' environmental footprint.

"We knew we wanted to be a real brand, and had this vision that we'd be an innovation company first, and a product company second," co-founder Joey Zwillinger told Vogue. "And our products would solve problems for people in a natural way, and show the world that you don't have to compromise on the planet for amazing products."

2. Bacardi Biodegradable Rum Bottles
By 2023, Bacardi rum will be sold in 100% biodegradable bottles, Business Wire reported.

The alcohol giant is collaborating with Danimer Scientific, a leading developer of biodegradable products, to create the new bottles using the natural oils of plant seeds such as palm, canola and soy, the report said.

According to Yahoo Finance UK, the new bottle will biodegrade in a wide range of environments, including compost, soil, freshwater and seawater. After 18 months, the bottle will disappear completely without leaving microplastics.

"Nodax PHA is one of the most promising eco-friendly materials in the world today because it delivers the biodegradability that consumers demand without losing the quality feel they receive from traditional plastic," said Danimer Scientific chief marketing & sustainability officer Scott Tuten, reported Thrillist. "The material provides the best of both worlds, and we look forward to working with Bacardí and incorporating PHA into their iconic packaging."

Bacardi is also creating a sustainably sourced paper bottle, Yahoo reported.

The manufacturing of both new bottle types will save energy over petroleum-based plastic ones. Bacardi plans to share the technology with competitors to help in the global fight against plastic pollution, and aims to be 100% plastic-free by 2030, reported Thrillist.

3. Burger King Reusable Fast Food Containers
Fast food giant Burger King plans to launch reusable Whopper boxes and soda cups by next year. Partnering with TerraCycle's zero-waste packaging division Loop, Burger King will nudge customers to return the specialized packaging for hygienic washing and reuse, similar to how milk bottles used to be returned, reported MarketWatch.

"During COVID, we have seen the environmental impact of increased takeaway ordering, which makes this initiative by Burger King all the more important," said Tom Szaky, TerraCycle and Loop CEO, according to MarketWatch.

Customers who don't feel comfortable can opt-out of the service, ABC News reported. Those who are willing to try will be charged a small deposit upon purchase, and when the packaging is returned, they will receive a refund, reported CNN.

Burger King and TerraCycle are aiming for a container that can be used at least 100 times, reported Fast Company.

"The benefit is, you're able to serve your guests without having to create that single-use item in the first place," Matt Banton, global head of innovation and sustainability at Burger King, told Fast Company. "This product is durable enough to go through the system multiple times, so it's ultimately reducing our environmental impact, and minimizing the amount of single-use packaging that we have to produce as well."

Burger King has also committed to sourcing 100% of its customer packaging from renewable, recycled or certified outlets, and recycling all customer packaging at its restaurants in the United States and Canada by 2025, reported CNN.

EcoWatch Daily Newsletter
Just in time for Halloween, scientists at Cornell University have published some frightening research, especially if you're an insect!
The ghoulishly named ogre-faced spider can "hear" with its legs and use that ability to catch insects flying behind it, the study published in Current Biology Thursday concluded.
"Spiders are sensitive to airborne sound," Cornell professor emeritus Dr. Charles Walcott, who was not involved with the study, told the Cornell Chronicle. "That's the big message really."
The net-casting, ogre-faced spider (Deinopis spinosa) has a unique hunting strategy, as study coauthor Cornell University postdoctoral researcher Jay Stafstrom explained in a video.
They hunt only at night using a special kind of web: an A-shaped frame made from non-sticky silk that supports a fuzzy rectangle that they hold with their front forelegs and use to trap prey.
They do this in two ways. In a maneuver called a "forward strike," they pounce down on prey moving beneath them on the ground. This is enabled by their large eyes — the biggest of any spider. These eyes give them 2,000 times the night vision that we have, Science explained.
But the spiders can also perform a move called the "backward strike," Stafstrom explained, in which they reach their legs behind them and catch insects flying through the air.
"So here comes a flying bug and somehow the spider gets information on the sound direction and its distance. The spiders time the 200-millisecond leap if the fly is within its capture zone – much like an over-the-shoulder catch. The spider gets its prey. They're accurate," coauthor Ronald Hoy, the D & D Joslovitz Merksamer Professor in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior in the College of Arts and Sciences, told the Cornell Chronicle.
What the researchers wanted to understand was how the spiders could tell what was moving behind them when they have no ears.
It isn't a question of peripheral vision. In a 2016 study, the same team blindfolded the spiders and sent them out to hunt, Science explained. This prevented the spiders from making their forward strikes, but they were still able to catch prey using the backwards strike. The researchers thought the spiders were "hearing" their prey with the sensors on the tips of their legs. All spiders have these sensors, but scientists had previously thought they were only able to detect vibrations through surfaces, not sounds in the air.
To test how well the ogre-faced spiders could actually hear, the researchers conducted a two-part experiment.
First, they inserted electrodes into removed spider legs and into the brains of intact spiders. They put the spiders and the legs into a vibration-proof booth and played sounds from two meters (approximately 6.5 feet) away. The spiders and the legs responded to sounds from 100 hertz to 10,000 hertz.
Next, they played the five sounds that had triggered the biggest response to 25 spiders in the wild and 51 spiders in the lab. More than half the spiders did the "backward strike" move when they heard sounds that have a lower frequency similar to insect wing beats. When the higher frequency sounds were played, the spiders did not move. This suggests the higher frequencies may mimic the sounds of predators like birds.
University of Cincinnati spider behavioral ecologist George Uetz told Science that the results were a "surprise" that indicated science has much to learn about spiders as a whole. Because all spiders have these receptors on their legs, it is possible that all spiders can hear. This theory was first put forward by Walcott 60 years ago, but was dismissed at the time, according to the Cornell Chronicle. But studies of other spiders have turned up further evidence since. A 2016 study found that a kind of jumping spider can pick up sonic vibrations in the air.
"We don't know diddly about spiders," Uetz told Science. "They are much more complex than people ever thought they were."
Learning more provides scientists with an opportunity to study their sensory abilities in order to improve technology like bio-sensors, directional microphones and visual processing algorithms, Stafstrom told CNN.
Hoy agreed.
"The point is any understudied, underappreciated group has fascinating lives, even a yucky spider, and we can learn something from it," he told CNN.
