Sustainable Civilization Engineering – One Community Weekly Progress Update #228

The technology and knowhow exist now for sustainable civilization engineering. We can create a completely sustainable world that meets the needs of all people if we want to. We can solve starvation, homelessness, lack of energy infrastructure, pollution, and more through sustainable foodenergy, and housing. We can further address crime, poverty, social injustice and inequality, and war if we include sustainable and open source economic and education models. One Community is developing tools, tutorials, and open source resources for all these sustainable civilization foundations because we believe now is the time to create the sustainable planet we know is possible.
