Welcome to an open forum inspired by ideas in the book, GLOBAL SENSE by Judah Freed, an update of "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine that reveals how our natural global connectivity empowers each of us to change the world by changing ourselves.

You do not need to have read the book to join the Global Sense Forum.

Topics in this discussion group may include local to global political events, grassroots activism, environmental issues, green lifestyle choices, personal growth, nonviolent communication, developing a spiritual awareness rooted in a global sensibility, or any related line of dialog.
