Reclaiming Our Common Home

February 24, 2021

The path to an ecological civilization is paved by reclaiming the commons—our common home, the Earth, and the commons of the Earth family, of which we are a part.

What Does An Ecological Civilization Look Like?

February 17, 2021

We need to forge a new era for humanity—one that is defined, at its deepest level, by a transformation in the way we make sense of the world, and a concomitant revolution in our values, goals, and collective behavior. In short, we need to change the basis of our global civilization. We must move from a civilization based on wealth accumulation to one that is life-affirming: an ecological civilization.

Eight Design Principles for a Local Economy

November 12, 2020

Beyond Green Capitalism: Economic Systems Change for the Next Seven Generations

October 27, 2020

Corporate capitalism is addicted to making money and therefore has a very short planning cycle–hardly longer than its next quarterly profit fix. A truly green, regenerative economy will have to plan long term. To do that, we need deeper economic changes. In this episode, Roar Bjonnes talks about the two most important systems changes needed to create an eco-economy of the future.
