Ecological Human Progress – One Community Weekly Progress Update #221

Ecological human progress is needed if we desire to achieve some level of sustainable balance with our planet and all life on it. To accomplish this, the main foundations of our living experience should be addressed sustainably. These would include foodenergyhousing, education, economic design, and social architecture. If we make the sustainable solutions to all these areas open source and free-shared, we can evolve and expand them faster for the benefit of everyone. One Community is an all-volunteer team working on this as a model for living and creating for The Highest Good of All.
