hat if you morphed them to create autonomous communities that have the ability to connect globally - symbiotically? And what if those autonomous communities implemented their own form of value exchange and governance that were interdependent on surrounding (globally) autonomous communities? What would you call them? Charter Cities and Communities. These Communities would be resilient to climate change because they would produce their own foods, buildings, and energy. Without relying on a centralized grid or system to do so. Yet they would be able to share their goods and services globally. Could these Charter Communities be a significant first step to transforming humanity toward a regenerative and benevolent society? Could they also set precedence for how Humans would exist in Space and the Universe? Do they fulfill the recommendations of the Wisdom Traditions and Thought Leaders throughout history to build new systems that makes the old ones obsolete? Yes. Are they the be-all, end-all solution, no. But they are a tangible start. And that is what we need. Some type of platform to build upon. One that is chartered to be regenerative with a foundational value for life itself.
