Sign the Petition for the Venus Project
Target:
economy, future, environment, innovative, ecosystem, restructure, energy, homes, redesign
Sponsored by:
The Venus Project presents a bold, new direction for humanity, entailing nothing less than the total redesign of our culture. Unemployment, violent crime, replacement of humans by technology, over-population and a decline in stability of the Earth's ecosystems; These are the problems of today, and as you will see, The Venus Project is dedicated to confronting all of these problems. Through the use of innovative approaches to social awareness, educational incentives, and the consistent application of the best that science and technology can offer directly to the social system, The Venus Project offers a comprehensive plan for social reclamation in which human beings, technology, and nature will be able to coexist in a long-term, sustainable state of dynamic equilibrium.
As one, we can make this project happen. We have the power to decide if this is the future that humanity actually deserves, and in doing so may act with foresight to re-align our current crash-course. There has never been a time in history, a better time than now, for we the united to choose a better way. How long will it take before all understand that Life, capital L, can be better? It doesn't have to be this way.
Ask yourself: Is THIS why am i here? To turn a dollar from the sweat of my brow, so as to afford to keep the sun from my back, the rain from my head? Here I am, here to watch the daytime television, to buy the designer clothes, to consume industry-approved placation after placation? No. There is more, and more still.
The way we are living right now is a mad rush, a stampede; This pollution of mind and body is stagnation, not evolution. Money cannot warm a heart or enrich the mind. All recognize the heedless waste of planned obsolescence and monetary greed. And yet, it need not be so. With even the slightest action, you will be so amazed at just how little is needed to enact a change. You are all very special, every human on this planet is so special, so aren't we all deserving of something better, to live without fear or undue strife? As much as the water we drink, as much as the air we breathe, as much as the sun which shines down, now more than ever, we need each other to survive. Lest the soil go bare, the water impure and the air go foul, we cannot risk anything less. Nothing will change unless we want something better for ourselves. The day your child comes to you, asking "Why can't we live in a real home, why can't we have food to eat?" It will be sooner than you think if we cannot act together.
Listen, and hear. Our future is in our hands, hearts and minds. Let's make it happen. Let's come together and save our world, save each other, and save our future from ourselves.
Special Note: Please pass this petition along to your friends and family, and share the videos from Youtube and Google Video. The more people who see this petition, watch the videos, and go to the home-page, the more people will rise up with one voice to reject our current destiny. With your voice and with your vote, we can make this happen. Thank you for your support, your signatures, and your continuing spirit. Keep spreading the word.

Updated:I also found this Foundation (Resource based economy foundation) RBEF for short.
What is RBEF?
Very generally speaking, RBEF is a set of tools for the transition from the Monetary System to Resource Based Economy. RBEF provides research on the transition economy model, develops global projects, and a libre resources management platform.
We believe that the current economic setup creates more problems than provides solutions.
Economy, in order to function, relies on artificially upholding scarcity which is maintained by various mechanisms like "planned obsolescence", "priority of profit", or "distortion of values".
Those fundamental causes are:
Our efforts are directed at removing the causes that lead to societal degradation rather than wasting them on remedying effects.

It's time for a change. We all need to become one, and there has never been a time more critical for oneness to take effect. We need to come together and throw out the pre-conditioned trash that has been programmed inside us all these years. It is time for a better world, and this beautiful planet that we live on does not have to be our form of modern day hell. It's time we take a stand against the corrupt institutions that have brain washed every last one of us. It's time we take out the trash and learn the values of unconditional love towards one another, that is when the movement can begin. |

It's about time the world moved in a different direction, one that will benefit all Humanity. The notion of a much better world, one described by the Venus Project, leaves my whole entire being tremendously happy, because maybe then we can harness our full potential as Humans.

History has repeated itself for far too long. War after war, based on greedy intent. Take away greed, war becomes obsillite. Give a man everything he needs to survive, that is readily available with a redesigned system, greed becomes obsillite.

I'm glad to know I now live in a world where smart people are offering an alternative to a better way of life. Please keep up the good work, and I'll promise to have my children and grandchildren follow up my lead on this.

We an all see from recent economic events that money and the systems created to further it artificially are going to cause the downfall of society. People need to wake up to this reality, get educated, and learn to comprehend a world without money, where we really can progress as a species.

We are all created for change and the fearful voices of decent are mere echos of the past, nothing but exhaust fumes of of burnt energy and have nothing to do with the energy of now. It is time to be brave and walk before those too timid step forward. Remember it is a universal law that like attracts like. I look forward to walk along side you.

This is the way that it's needed to be for a long time. It is our last chance at survival. If we continue on this path of destruction there will be nothing left of the planet and no amount of man made money can ever reverse that!

i want the planet to be as beautiful as nature has made it, i want us as the most highly evolved beings on the planet to use our amazing frontal lobe, limbic system and adrenal cortex fear responses for the better. we can be conditioned, so why do we not condition ourselves to eliminate pain. we all know what feels like, emotional, finacial, physical, imagined and real. It is not nice. Lets get rid of pain on the planet. Lets support TVP and what it can show us a being possible to live in a world where Pain, ie moneteray systems no longer cause barriers to how we treat ourselves, treat others, treat the climate and treat resources. We are the the third rock from the sun, what a wonderful position we have in the known universe so far, why treat such a paradise and its inhabitants from all species with pain. Why???? The scientists say that we occupy the "Goldilocks" zone in our solar system. Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuust right!!!

Let's finally stop trying to fix a system (the monetary system) that can't work in the best interest of the human species and thus keeping the Earth in-habituated with us. The Venus Project is the only solution I have ever encountered that I feel strong enough about to get involved in working towards making it happen.
