Restoring Global Eco-Balance – One Community Weekly Progress Update #105

Restoring global eco-balance can be accomplished if enough people participate. Increasing participation sufficiently can predictably be achieved if it is easy enough, affordable enough, and demonstrated as attractive enough for mainstream involvement. An open source evolution of sustainability that combines physical sustainability with emotional sustainability to create a better way of living is the most viable and efficient path we see for global implementation and we are creating it for The Highest Good of All:
