Living in the Matrix
All our kids are being born into the matrix of problems that expands every day we fail to address the two underlying problems: Human Population Levels and Sustainability.
War, disease, corruption, greed, fascism, terrorism, homelessness, unemployment, global warming, climate change, etc… None of these problems will go away. They will only get worse until we focus the bulk of our energy towards solving the two major issues of our time. Period.
Think about it… As a country, we do have to deal with daily issues, like terrorism, corruption, and the war in Iraq. However, to get “lost” in any of these surface issues (the matrix) is insanity. We need to keep our focus on solving the two underlying causes, rather than perpetually treating the symptoms. We cannot cure infectious diseases with band-aids.
Human population levels are driving us rapidly into realms of unprecedented biological pressure. (See graphical analysis) While we contemplate “intelligent” solutions to this issue, we have to work immediately and intelligently towards sustainability.
A sustainable society by definition uses its plant and animal resources no faster than they can regenerate.
This site contains proposals to amend the US Constitution as well as a basic economic model. An economy focused on sustainability will have an abundance of job opportunities, and will give us all hope for the future. The resources for sustainability are vast. There are many among us who understand how to create sustainable homes, and how to expand that idea to larger and larger communities. Perhaps you are one of those people. All we have to do is join together to move this country in the right direction.
The choice is simple: We can face the challenges of the real world, or we can dissolve into the matrix.
We are living in a time that will define us for years to come…
