Description

This group seeks to start a dialog where World Citizens can become empowered to take action towards solving world problems.

The world in which we live is increasingly being plagued with a multitude of problems from global warming, pollution, ozone depletion, wars, disputes, poverty, overpopulation, discrimination, ELECTROSMOG (cell phones towers) and and human rights abuses. Moreover, citizens and consumers feel increasingly powerless to deal with these problems. Many of these problems can be viewed as stemming from a value system which places money and the economy as the highest good (economism), and certain groups of people as more privileged than others in reaping the rewards of this system, thus sacrificing the human being, human rights, our health, and the environment in the process and leading the human race and the future of this planet down an extremely perilous path.

We would like to see a reverse of this value system to one that places the human being and the planet before economism and the unity of humankind above various divisions (religious, national, political).

This group starts from the premise that we are all related to each other as human beings and that we share the Earth and are entrusted to care for it and each other in the present and for future generations to come. We seek to empower world citizens to seek alternatives (i.e., in education, energy production, food resources and production, political solutions, government systems, medicine and health, etc.) to solve the problems and secure a peaceful and safe future for this planet and its inhabitants.

Unstated rights that had been taken for granted for thousands of years are now being held in jeopardy. These include rights to safe clean air, water, food - and places free from electrosmog.

We need empowered Global Citizens to counteract Global Corporatism and short-sighted and narrow-minded government policies and the destruction they are inflicting on this planet and its various peoples.
