Inveire
The consumer culture is one of history's most expansive and successful examples of social engineering.  We are paying a big price. Capitalism as we know it is the common denominator for practically all the downward trends we are familiar with - social, economic, environmental, political, lost human potential,,,,capitalism is not broken, this is just what it does,,,,,,millions of jobs exist to repair the damage caused by millions of other jobs while excess and vanity are celebrated,,,,,,people and planet deserve better,,,,paradigm shift towards honest and holistic sustainability is sensible, humane and accessible to just about everyone,,,,,many examples already exist that point the way towards a preferred future

Primer content can fortify your own advocacy.
The recorded presentations will go to you tube.
