<p><span style="font-size: 24pt;"><strong>INNOVATION or EXPLOITATION</strong> ?</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Eco-villages are autonomous in many ways, but they lack the technical prowess to connect globally. Smart Cities have the connectivity but are centrally controlled. But what 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.<br/></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Getting Beyond Awareness of Threats and Challenges to Implementation of Solutions</strong></span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">For decades and even centuries, our thought leaders have been sounding the alarm to change our ways because they recognized the dangerous trajectory humankind was hurling toward. In short, we have developed systems incoherent with life-systems. We have energy, finance, production, and many other systems foundational to our civilization that do not result in the regeneration of life. <br/><br/>We have mutated dis-harmonically from the precious aspect of </span><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><a href="http://letschangetheworld.ning.com/profiles/blogs/it-has-forever-been-the-moment-by-moment" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Spaceship Earth</strong>'</a>s Life Support Systems. Ironically, we haven't found another inter-galactic habitat that offers the same kind of support as our own. However, an awareness of this dilemma has spread globally among the commons in a variety of manners from nuclear power-plant disasters, toxic plastic in our water, lack of dignity for all forms of life, and a myriad of other situations. </span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">My realization to this dynamic occurred a couple of decades ago when I realized and witnessed the influence the communications network had on human behavior; and that it wasn't oriented toward the benefit of life, but the short-sightedness of manipulation and control. </span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Since then, I have been on a quest for what <strong><a href="https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=Michael%20Grove%20Buckminster%20Fuller&epa=FILTERS&filters=eyJycF9hdXRob3IiOiJ7XCJuYW1lXCI6XCJhdXRob3JfbWVcIixcImFyZ3NcIjpcIlwifSJ9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Buckminster Fuller</a> </strong>described as a fulcrum point. A dynamic point that if you apply some energy toward it, it would catalyze a significant shift in the direction of a system - similar to the rudder of a ship. This took me on a journey across many disciplines spanning anthropology to virtual reality in search of that fulcrum. The journey was extremely humbling because of the wisdom we have available to us from our history and present day. It also frequently caused despair because of the magnitude of corruption that permeates so many of our systems. It made me question whether we were worth the effort of trying to help. But continuously I would encounter amazing people and fellow earthlings to inspire and fuel my pursuit.<br/><br/><span><strong><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/building-bildung-solutions-paul-quaiser" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Paul Quaiser</a> </strong>- Human Sustainability Institute</span><br/></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> a phenomenon in which a new behaviour or idea is said to spread</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> numerous "morphic fields" across our planet that are coming up</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> with similar ideas. A manifestation of some type of co-creative</span></p>
