Welcome! Here we offer

Three new on-line resources:

Occasional Updates on the work of this Sustainability Project/7th Generation Initiative. No more than one a month.

More detail about what is offered:

When you fill in this form, you will receive (approximately) monthly updates about ongoing efforts to help society realize - and to act on the realization - that we've got to stabilize human activity within our planets limits.

In addition, two exciting new initiatives are now available:

1) The first, our free Mini-Course, offers you foundational material on cultural evolution, particularly as it applies to shifting toward sustainability. This material will help you to imagine creating a better world. We recommend it for Think Tank participants.

The Mini-Course is about:

- sustainability,
- economics for the coming era,
- social change, and
- the challenge of shifting society's goals.

You can start receiving this series of short articles and videos right away by clicking here. They'll arrive in your in-box, one per week for ten weeks. (You may cancel at any time.)

2) The other is a Think Tank on Shifting Society's Goals. We'd like your participation.

This initiative looks at engaging your thoughts, imagination and creativity, along with that of others, for the task of evolving our societies' understanding about stabilizing human activities within planetary limits. When that goal is recognized, viable policies and actions will follow. Membership is as simple as subscribing at the top right, under the picture, here.

As a member of the Think Tank you will be able to suggest solutions, help refine the suggestions of others, and push ideas and action items up the priority list. By sharing ideas and initiatives, we can maximize our contribution toward redirecting society. We're excited to offer a platform for harvesting ideas and experience, sharing them and moving them forward.

While the prospects sometimes look bleak, humankind will change to accommodate planetary limits. What we don't know is how much confrontation with those limits it will take before we come to respect them. It is entirely possible to manage our world in ways that offer humans a long and satisfying future. We hope you will appreciate the monthly updates, become familiar with the background materials in the Mini-Course and join this effort to shift society's goals toward sustainability.
