It seems random to me, and I did read the book, and have had lots of conversations about it, but I still don't understand why it has to be that specific number of people and communities. I also don't understand how consensus works. I have a hard time getting to consensus between myself and my five year old, how are 500 people going to come to a consensus on a regular basis?<br /> I would like to see you write a new book specifically on that topic. </p> http://www.communityplanet.org/forums/topic/global-reserve-bank#post-13 Sat, 05 Jul 2008 05:10:26 +0000 JohnPozzi 13@http://www.communityplanet.org/forums/ <p>The Community Planet Forum is cordially invited to review the Global Reserve Bank evolution at <a href="http://www.grb.net" rel="nofollow">www.grb.net</a> </p> <p>John </p> http://www.communityplanet.org/forums/topic/something-more-than-changing-light-bulbs#post-12 Fri, 20 Jun 2008 16:38:09 +0000 jreed 12@http://www.communityplanet.org/forums/ <p>J - Answering your question about the status of the Co-op Village project in FL, go to <a href="http://www.co-opvillagefoundation.org." rel="nofollow">www.co-opvillagefoundation.org.</a> Interesting site that will give you all the latest. </p> http://www.communityplanet.org/forums/topic/something-more-than-changing-light-bulbs#post-10 Thu, 19 Jun 2008 00:34:16 +0000 J 10@http://www.communityplanet.org/forums/ <p>yep!

While it's great that people and businesses are thinking and acting more "green", small changes alone within the everyone-for-themselves (EFT) will not be enough to bail ourselves out. </p> <p>Here are the steps that we need to take:</p> <p>• We need immediate and total transformation of the current system. The majority of the problems that we are facing today are a result of free-market capitalism.</p> <p>• We need to establish a new and better system, Communities that are based on The Highest Good For All which will create abundance on all levels for all, including Nature.</p> <p>• Building one cluster of six 500 person Communities to demonstrate The Highest Good model is what is needed to start the positive transformation of the planet. As people see how easily this can be done, this will create a catalyst for the rest of the planet to follow, and will require far fewer resources than trying to get the EFT paradigm to act quickly to save our planet.</p> <p>Are you ready to start the process towards healing our planet? </p>
