Our world is currently undergoing a mass extinction. With every day that passes another 200 species of life are removed forever from the circle of life. It is the practices of the dominant culture that is driving this mass extinction. Many biologists believe that this mass extinction poses a major threat to humans within this century. Yet, most people are only dimly aware of this threat. If the members of the dominant culture do not wake up to this state of affairs and change their ways, then humans will surely perish along with the bulk of the community of life of which we are a part.
The problems are great and grave but there is much cause for hope. With each passing day, more and more people are becoming aware that something is terribly wrong. They are dissatisfied with their lives and some are seeking answers. Though many are still distracted with TV, drugs, work, consumerism, and all the other trappings of the dominant culture, these distractions leave them increasingly unsatisfied. People sense that something is just not right, even if they can not put their finger on it.
This site's intention is to enlighten as to some of the problems and possible solutions. These problems may at first seem overwhelming but remember that as all of us become part of the solution rather than being a part of the problem, together we can achieve dramatic results. With each of us helping in whatever way we can, with all of us pitching in, we could see very dramatic changes in a short time. Browse the information on these pages, inform yourself, and become part of the solution.
"I've witnessed one miracle after another through my whole life, extraordinary things happening. I see that God tries very hard and apparently is intent to make us a success if it is possible. So if we don't make it, it is because of each individual. You can't leave it to your politicians to represent you; you can't leave it to your ministers to pray for you. It's going to be how each individual reacts in relation to the truth."
-- Buckminster Fuller, 1978
