Awakening the Dreamer: Response.

Where do our beautiful visions become things we can do right now?

A: It starts with one person standing up.
A: Vision, education, and hope.
A: The harder I work, the harder I live.

Bioneers- humans and development

The bioneers experience has been unreal. In everything that a conference should be:

A couple big conclusions.

-Many day-to-day decisions are not based in environmental realities. A simple systems analysis shows humans have to face their impacts and begin talking about institution change and restoration.
-On the civil society systems analysis level, things look very sobering for humans. Human rights, food, culture and.waste issues abound. (Where are the solutions? We make them.)
-Who were great leaders before they were that?

And solutions:
-Collaborative business ownership shares responsibility and reward.
-Farming can be done in a way that is permanent and fulfilling.
-Development is a right. Which means material things and energy, unfortunately!
-Through the crisis, take the opportunity to rethink our great institutions. “Redream it” (Lynn Tarist- Pachamama alliance).

Look at all the amazing things that are happening! Every day, every person working to make the world better makes it so. Our energy creates our environment, Can this many leaders work together?

We already are.

On exploring

We as people cannot lose our connection with the outdoors.

There is so much in the woods, up a tree, or lying on the grass. If you believe, like I do, that the only way to really learn something is by experience, then an outdoors escape is the ultimate experience.

The morning off of work (or ‘in it’) was necessary. Now on to bioneers, check here for updates or visit ted.org if you can’t go!
