It’s time for a human eco-synthesis capable of regenerating our planet through intelligent and conscientious stewardship. One Community is forwarding this process through open source and sustainable approaches to all aspects of living. A global cooperative of teacher/demonstration communities, villages, and cities are purposed to lead the human eco-synthesis and regenerative process.
