Sustainable Diversity – One Community Weekly Progress Update #279

Sustainable diversity means diversity that is sufficient to meet the different needs and values of people around the world. We think the best way to achieve this is through open source and free-shared sustainability models that cover both universal needs (foodenergyhousing) and emotional needs (educationfor-profit and non-profit economic designsocial architecturefulfilled livingglobal stewardship practices, etc.). Creating these with the goal to do what is best for The Highest Good of All, our intent is global sustainability.
