In today's world of political chicanery, natural disasters and environmental destruction, good news is hard to find. Behind almost every horror story in the mainstream press lies a hidden story of hope and hard work undertaken in an effort to make the world, or at least a small corner of it, a better place. So where are the ?good news? stories? They're often hidden below the fold, just before the sign off, six levels down or even behind your back fence. It can take a great deal of time and determination to unearth them, unless www.worldpeaceemerging.com is at the top of your go-to list.
Everson,Washington (PRWEB) February 21, 2006 -- Quietly, almost invisibly, ordinary people are taking extraordinary measures to clean up messes, create solutions and take positive action for the greater good. Often, its the very people working for positive change that bring a story to the media's attention in the hopes that public awareness will bring attention, donations and volunteers to their cause. With big media's focus on the negative, very few of their stories make it to the holy grail of the Oprah Winfrey show or the network news. That makes it a chore for journalists to find just the right ?good news? piece to bring balance to an article or lighten up an otherwise grim broadcast.
World Peace Emerging, Inc., not affiliated with any specific religious or political organizations, has created an online resource directory showcasing the thousands of projects worldwide that share a vision of the common good. Their web site, www.worldpeaceemerging.com, serves as an information resource for individuals, organizations and agencies seeking solutions and as a networking hub for those starting or working on projects large and small. It showcases the unrecognized champions of peace, environmental responsibility, social justice, cultural preservation, independence from oil, food for the hungry and more. Article subjects range from the well-known post-Katrina clean up efforts to the unheralded plight of the Central American coffee farmers. The site provides easy access to listings of green gatherings, international peace movements, sustainable energy conferences and much more. Saphir Lewis, driving force behind World Peace Emerging, Inc., makes sure the web site undergoes constant updating and improvement, providing new, up-to-the-minute content on an ongoing basis.
Saphir Lewis firmly believes that taking positive action is the fastest way to make the dream a reality and helping people join in will only accelerate the process. She views her role as a ringmaster, of sorts, drawing on her experience as Executive Director of numerous festivals to organize all the elements needed to create a support system of information and networking opportunities that make it easy and exciting to get involved.
