Humanity is Writing The Next Chapter of the Human Story. It will be either sustainable or unsustainable. If it is to be sustainable, it seems to make sense that a truly comprehensive and holistic approach will be the fastest path to success in writing the next chapter of the human story. One Community is forwarding this through open source sustainability solutions combining food, energy, and housing with ecocentric models for fulfilled living, education, sustainable economics and earth stewardship. We call this living and creating for The Highest Good of All:
One Community is creating a place to grow together and change the world together by supporting humanity in writing the next chapter of the human story. We are creating a space that helps each other live in integrity with each other and the planet as we strive to be the greatest versions of ourselves. We do this by harmoniously respecting each other, nature, and the rest of our one shared planet.
Our goal is to demonstrate what we feel is the most sustainable, healthy, and fun environment we can create, thus contributing to writing the next chapter of the human story. A place based on compassion, kindness, and collaboration. This replicable community will serve as an example of how humanity is writing the next chapter of the human story and showcase what is possible.
Throughout our design process we are open sourcing and free-sharing everything needed for construction and replication. This includes what we call “Highest Good” approaches to food, energy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economics design, social architecture, fulfilled living, stewardship practices and more. We are creating these resources for implementation as individual components or complete developments called teacher/demonstration hubs. These hubs will help launch additional hubs as awareness and knowledge grow.
Writing the Next Chapter of the Human Story, One Community will be the first teacher/demonstration hub. It will function as an experiential-learning model that facilitates mass participation to address humanity’s most pressing challenges through: A replicable model for expansion, building seven self-sufficient village/city prototypes, becoming the world leader in open-source sustainability solutions, and evolving and expanding ALL aspects of sustainable living.
The One Community self-replicating model is capable of creating a sustainable planet within 30 years. We will achieve this by establishing successful teacher/demonstration hubs on every continent supporting humanity in writing the next chapter of the human story. Villages include designs appropriate for each of the five main types of climates. They also include options for even the most challenged economies. These hubs will collaborate with one another, share ideas, resources, and work together as a network to heal the planet. They will also transform the global lifestyle to a more enjoyable, fulfilling, healthy, and sustainable one.
The specifics of how One Community is accomplishing this can be found on the One Community Solution Model to Create Solution-creating Models Page. Research supporting and showing the benefits of a model like this can be found on our Research and Resources Articles Archive. One Community is dedicated to the mission of writing the next chapter of the human story, striving to create a more sustainable, healthy, and fulfilling way of life for all.
Even if we don’t achieve our ultimate goal of global transformation, a self-replicating teacher/demonstration model like this will contribute to humanity in writing the next chapter of the human story, positively affecting millions while inspiring millions more. For One Community residents (the Pioneer Team), the idea of creating and sharing the social and recreational experience with visitors is also fun, exciting, fulfilling, and an additional reason why we are creating this.

One Community’s physical location will forward this movement as the first of many self-replicating teacher/demonstration communities, villages, and cities to be built around the world. This is the November 1st, 2015 edition (#136) of our weekly progress update detailing our team’s development and accomplishments, supporting humanity in writing the next chapter of the human story:
Here is the bullet-point list of this last week’s design and progress discussed in detail in the video above focused on writing the next chapter of the human story:

One Community is doing our part Writing The Next Chapter of the Human Story through Highest Good education that is for all ages, applicable in any environment, adaptable to individual needs, far exceeds traditional education standards, and more fun for both the teachers and the students:
This last week the core team transferred the final 50% of the written content for the Emotional States Lesson Plan to the website, as you see here. This lesson plan is purposed to teach all subjects, to all learning levels, in any learning environment, using the central theme of “Emotional States.”
We additionally completed and added the first 50% of the mindmap for the Emotional States Lesson Plan to the webpage. You can see that mindmap here:
Behind the scenes, we also wrote the first 1/2 of the Fall Lesson Plan, bringing the behind-the-scenes written part for that to 50% complete.
One Community is doing our part Writing The Next Chapter of the Human Story through Highest Good food that is more diverse, more nutritious, locally grown and sustainable, and part of our open source botanical garden model to support and share bio-diversity:
This last week the core team began organizing and editing a more streamlined version of our Food Self-sufficiency Transition Plan page behind the scenes. We are approximately 10% complete with the behind-the-scenes remodeling of that page.
We also added three additional recipes from Sandra Sellani (Vegan Chef and author of What’s Your BQ?) to the Food Self-sufficiency Transition Plan ” These recipes are: AB&J Waffle Sandwiches, Pasta Fagioli, and Autumn Salad with Pumpkin Vinaigrette.
One Community is doing our part Writing The Next Chapter of the Human Story through Highest Good housing that is artistic and beautiful, more affordable, more space efficient, lasts longer, DIY buildable, and constructed with healthy and sustainable materials:
This last week the core team continued what we hope will be the final revision of the Footers, Foundations and Flooring page for the upcoming crowdfunding campaign. This week included more french drain revisions we’re now coordinating with another partner to update in AutoCAD and edits to the geotextile narrative. This progress brings us to 45% complete with this huge behind-the-scenes rewrite and update.
We also continued posting and formatting the website content for the dome home window and door framing tutorial for the upcoming crowdfunding campaign. What you see here is another 20% of this tutorial update bringing us to 55% done with this new page creation in Writing the Next Chapter of the Human Story.
Last but not least, we completed another revision of the 3-dome cluster design for the upcoming crowdfunding campaign. This revision included moving the windows and updating the Sketchup, AutoCAD, and Revit files so they all match. The images you see here are from Sketchup.
One Community is doing our part Writing The Next Chapter of the Human Story through a Duplicable and Sustainable City Center that is LEED Platinum certified/Sustainable, can feed 200 people at a time, provide laundry for over 300 people, is beautiful, spacious, and saves resources, money, and space:
This week the core team continued updating the Sketchup 3-D for the Duplicable City Center. This week we focused on reorganizing the pantry shelving and adding additional food and kitchen accessory details. The images you see here show all our progress in these areas and we’d say we are now 68% done with this 3-D work.
Iris Hsu (Industrial Designer), continued developing and evolving the Pipe Furniture designs. What you see here are the 6th generation concept designs for the chairs for the Duplicable City Center library. These chairs will be able to be converted into tables and are designed to be built out of PVC or recycled plumbing piping.
Behind the scenes Mike Hogan (Automation Systems Developer and Business Systems Consultant) and Lucas Tsutsui da Silva (4th-year Computer Engineering Student), continued developing the Control System connector deck you see in the collage below. Also below is the list of parts Mike will be sending to Lucas so they can both start building, testing, and writing software for the connector deck, and included is a funny picture of Jae pointing to Mike’s connector deck power supply sketch as the three of them test out the drawing function in their collaborative GoogleHangout.
One Community is doing our part Writing The Next Chapter of the Human Story through a Highest Good society approach to living that is founded on fulfilled living, the study of meeting human needs, Community, and making a difference in the world:
This last week the core team began refining the information from an international team of legal volunteers working on the details for establishing self-replicating teacher demonstration hubs in their respective countries. You can see some of this work here and the team working on this includes help from India, Kenya, Nigeria, and Malaysia.
Oz Czersk (Lawyer Specializing in Trademark and Copyright Law) also helped us file for trademarking of all the aspects of our project that we feel are most important to preserve for our open source and global transformation goals.
One Community’s open source strategy will evolve 5 primary types of open source content purposed to reach and service as broad an audience as possible. This includes the following mediums of sharing that are being developed to function as standalone resources or in combination with each other:
Maximum exposure is accomplished through simultaneous implementation of the following strategies:
We are creating everything One Community does as open source and free-shared blueprints because we see this as the path to a new Golden Age of creativity, innovation, cooperation, and collaboration for all of humanity. Our model is a solution model that creates additional solution creating models enabling people to live and collaborate globally for The Highest Good of All. The easier we make everything we do, the faster we see the world transitioning.
Every aspect of this model supports itself and contributes to its success, from the sustainable food, energy, and homes, to the social architecture, One Community Education Program, and open source sharing model itself. Each piece can be accessed, evolved, and even re-birthed as something completely new. It can be duplicated by itself or with other modules, with applications as diverse as the people who want and need them. The constantly expanding total model will additionally be able to be used in its entirety as the open source project-launch blueprint for a variety of duplicate teacher/demonstration communities, villages, and cities capable of being built virtually anywhere.
The most profound part is: the more we open source share, the more we help move everyone forward, the more people know about what we are doing and can participate, and the more successful and capable we are of project-launch blueprinting and sharing even more still. This is all supported and made possible because:
One Community sees the issues of the world as interdependent and interconnected. To address them simultaneously, we are open-source blueprinting a more advanced standard of living by designing holistic, environmentally-regenerative, self-sustaining, adaptable solutions for all areas of sustainability. We will model these within a comprehensive “village/city” which will be built in the southwestern U.S. This teacher/demonstration hub will be a place people can experience a new way of living and then replicate it with our open source blueprints: creating a model solution that creates additional solution-creating models.

You create a new model and make the old one obsolete. That, in essence, is the higher service to which we are all being called."
