We are a long way from understanding how to create a resilient world. Nevertheless, it is possible to offer some visions for what a resilient world might look like.

Executive summary 4pp

Embercombe is a charity and social enterprise established \nto champion a way of living that celebrates the opportunities inherent in this \nchallenging time and that inspires people to energetically contribute towards \nthe emergence of a socially just, environmentally sustainable and spiritually \nfulfilling human presence on earth.\n\nIt is our view that humanity now stands at a cross-roads - \na defining time in which we will make choices that will greatly influence our \ncollective future, for better or worse. We have become so numerous, so \nindustrious, so ambitious, and so technologically powerful, that we have the \ncapacity to orchestrate the destruction of our species, habitat, and future. We \nalso possess the imagination, the vision, and the intellect to learn from \nexperience, meet our challenges, and build a positive, sustainable future. A \nradical shift in awareness, values, and behaviour is required to meet this \ncritical transition.

esd is also "electronic service delivery" so beware. There is very little mention of sustainability in the huge Gov't lists. A recent European initiative has no mention of it.
There is open source software out there. We probably do not need it, but we do need to think about a more restricted list of tags then I have produced so far.

How useful are these bookmarks to you?
I'm struggling a bit with the tags. Too many or too few both unhelpful.
I've added 25 more bookmarks today.
I've joined Twine. There are quite a few relevant groups on Twine; Sustainable Living currently at 29, eco-bounty, alternative energy and Sustainable Development & sustainable development.

Climate science maverick James Lovelock believes catastrophe is inevitable, carbon offsetting is a joke and ethical living a scam. So what would he do?

Thomas Berry has just dies aged 94

In El Alto, Saturnina and Felipa learned to knit and weave. Job after job, both received low pay, late pay or no pay at all. At one point, Saturnina's boss was paying her $4 per clothing article which he would then sell in Germany for $70. Saturnina and Felipa grew tired of seeing themselves and other rural migrants exploited. So in 2000 they founded a women's collective called the Integral Association of Kullakas (IAK). 'Kullakas' means 'sisters' in the Aymara language. They used this word to symbolize their interdependence with the Aymara and with the world. Says Saturnina: 'We decided that we needed to help each other.' Nine years later, the collective - of which Saturnina is President - continues to teach handicraft and farming skills. Saturnina's living room is where women come to be trained. The room displays colourful scarves, hats and dolls made by hand, often entirely out of the fleece of the alpaca - similar to the llama - which is warmer and softer than sheep's wool. Fifty per cent of the price of each product goes to the woman who made it, while the rest goes to communal living costs or to buy new materials. The Kullakas are constantly on the lookout for markets so that they can pay women as quickly as possible.
