Learning to live within our ecological and economic boundaries, or failing to, will be the defining product of our time. Trends in global relations, resources, economics, social well being & the environment clearly call for dramatic changes in how we define our needs & how we take care of them.
Capitalism, as we know it, is not compatible with a green & peaceful culture, economy and planet. There are other choices to be made. The content and links found on this website describe a wide range of allies, assets and actions for creating a preferred future, from home scale to neighborhood and beyond.
The transformation to live within our economic & environmental boundaries can take place in our homes, neighborhoods, streets and communities. There are many allies & assets to work with, many examples to learn from & many benefits to be gained. No permission or legislation needed to take action.
