Letting Go of All You Know

Most people are struggling individually just to survive.  But what if you could leave the rat race behind?  Suppose you could join with others, share resources, and live more easily than is possible on your own?  This is the idea behind intentional communities.

Please help me to understand how we can all sit here and talk about the things we do and, out of approximately 6 billion people on this planet, 5.5 bilion have no concept of what we talk about and , in fact only care about where their next meal comes from, how can we really change this world?

This September 11, Choose Love and Unity.  Imagine if on the day we remember one of history's most unsettling events, we stop the cycle of fear and instead imagine honoring those who sacrificed so much by focusing on our love for each other. Come and join us live or online for a free 3-day global event designed to share solutions and accelerate our shift from fear to love and from surviving to thriving. 

I've just discovered PROUT, a group that supports basic rights and equality for humans and their coexistence within the natural environment.  Only one of their tenets gives me pause; their endorsement of one world government.  All their other ideals emphasize localization and decentralization, so maybe their 'world government' model is less ominous and controlling than the one in which we're familiar?  

Please read past the basic tenets to the article on Proutist Economics.  I'd like to know what you think.  ~ Noa

This probably isn't news to many of you, but I thought the stats were worth passing along.  - Noa
