Welcome!
 

This is a place where you can (hopefully) get questions answered, problems solved, and ideas elaborated by tapping into the collective knowledge and wisdom of everyone here.

Example of conversation around a:

  • Question: What if the world embodied our highest potential? What would it look like?
  • Problem: Suggestion for finding mentors & allies?
  • Idea: Urban hydroponic rooftop greenhouses

Naturally, the larger and more diverse the pool of knowledge and wisdom, the better. So, we want to get as many WiserEarth members as possible joining this group and sharing/helping.

also is there a place to suggest ui changes without invite to be an editor or application to a group? it would be especially good if you could change the default order of chatter box posts to latest-at-top, if they don't add a setting to choose.

"A world citizen, someone who feels at home in a million different places... Originally used in ancient Greece, known as ‘kosmou polites’, it meant someone who feels at home both his birth place, as at any other place in the world. Someone who has the same connection with his neighbour as with someone at the other side of the world." (Christopher Baan)

Our civilization has devloped rapidly in recent times by using up limited natural capital at a high rate. This natural capital is now becoming scarce so our civilization is entering into its senescence.The challenge is on us to choose the means to ease the powering down. The object of the International Professors Panel group 'Senescence of civilization' is to use a spreadsheet to provide a credible, trnasparent discussion of what should be done. Will you join us?

"When we talk about settling the world's problems, we're barking up the wrong tree. The world is perfect. It's a mess. It has always been a mess. We are not going to change it. Our job is to straighten out our own lives." (Joseph Campbell)

Hi Frank. You can upload the file on your profile's "Files & Photo" tab, and start a conversation here on it with a link to the pdf. Trying to keep the group page simple, and focused on the conversations. Thanks for sharing.
