L. LouRicca’s Summary

Been mostly involved with the entertainment biz. Acting, Music, Radio, TV, Film, Producing, Writing, Murder Mystery Comedy Theatre.
Lately, I've been involved with many people and organizations all over the world trying to figure out how to bring peace in the world, In a peaceful way... help those in need and help with 'Greening' the Earth. Also involved with several organizations as well as my own program, EuroRock'n The World For Peace in it's 3rd year and Peace-full Sail.

My wife, a Swiss National just received her Masters in Finance and Economics at the University of Zürich. Her thesis, a financial model to bring down the Co2 footprint of the Int'l cement Industry received a near perfect score. She's also a multi-talented musician/writer

* Did you know, "...severe and extensive poverty persists while there is great and rising affluence elsewhere. The average income of the citizens of the affluent countries is about 50 times greater in purchasing power and about 200 times greater in terms of market exchange rates than that of the global poor. The latter, 2.8 people together have about 1.2% of aggregated global income, while the 903 million people of the "high income economies" together have 79.7%. Shifting merely 1% of aggregated global income--312 billion annually--from the first group to the second would eradicate severe poverty worldwide." (from World Poverty and Human Rights" by Thomas Pogge)

The above, if implemented, would not only feed the worlds hungry, but drastically cut disease, violence & crime throughout the world. This would in effect help bring peace in many nations.

Why aren't we doing this?

    "Our mission is to unite and bring awareness of singer-songwriters all over the world. It is now time for western consciousness to enter the world—participate, regenerate, expand, and become part of the global musical community.
    Music is the universal language connecting the invisible realities
    of our human soul. Even the most simple song can bring profound inner understanding of one’s self, and become a tangible thread from

    BSP has helped scores of people from being a consumer advocate to helping the world with programs designed for peace and helping others. BSP also helps young and upcoming musicians with their careers. BSP has never charged anyone for this service, made any profits nor taken a salary and we stay afloat with expenses, donations and love. We believe the world would be better off without money and that the Earths resources should be shared with every living creature on the planet, earned through participation and barter with love as the motive.

    Also have done some indie film and tv work as a writer,director and producer as well as tv advertising.
