Replicable Highest Good Living - One Community Weekly Progress Update #139

“Replicable Highest Good living models combining sustainable approaches to food, energy, housing, fulfilled living, education, economics, and earth stewardship could create a new paradigm for how people choose to live. We think open source and free-shared approaches to all of these areas are the key to establishing this. This is the November 22nd, 2015 edition (#139) of our weekly progress update detailing our team’s development and accomplishments.”

Sustainably Addressing Humanity’s Foundations - One Community Weekly Progress Update #137

Sustainably Addressing Humanity’s Foundations - One Community Weekly Progress Update #137

“Sustainably addressing humanity’s foundations is essential if a sustainable world is to be created. To do this, a holistic solution-set needs to be created that will combine physical sustainability (food, energy, and housing) and emotional sustainability (fulfilled living, education, sustainable economics and earth stewardship) to provide a better way of life that people can replicate and share. We call this living and creating for The Highest Good of All. This is the November 8th, 2015 edition (#137) of our weekly progress update detailing our team’s development and accomplishments.”

Writing the Next Chapter of the Human Story - One Community Weekly Progress Update #136

Writing the Next Chapter of the Human Story - One Community Weekly Progress Update #136

“Humanity is writing the next chapter of the human story. It will be either sustainable or unsustainable. If it is to be sustainable, it seems to make sense that a truly comprehensive and holistic approach will be the fastest path to success. One Community is forwarding this through open source sustainability solutions combining food, energy, and housing with ecocentric models for fulfilled living, education, sustainable economics and earth stewardship. We call this living and creating for The Highest Good of All. One Community's physical location will forward this movement as the first of many self-replicating teacher/demonstration communities, villages, and cities to be built around the world. This is the November 1st, 2015 edition (#136) of our weekly progress update detailing our team's development and accomplishments.”
