Highest Good Decision Making - One Community Weekly Progress Update #265

It seems reasonable to think that one way to get there could be by providing for people’s needs through a replicable lifestyle of abundance built on thinking, creating, and acting on ideas that are already for The Highest Good. The knowledge and technology already exist to help all people and life on our shared planet while taking into account the short term and long term impacts of our decisions. The path to achieving this has never been clearer and One Community is designing and open sourcing all the steps and components we see as helpful. This is the April 22nd, 2018 edition (#265) of our weekly progress update detailing our team’s development and accomplishments."
