The End of Real Estate
and what can take its place
Problem: The establishment of land as private property is illegal (violates natural law, and the law of common ownership), and is also destructive on all of these levels: environmental, social, economic, and community.  The real estate industry has destroyed social and economic fabric of the community, while perverting the original intent of land use for the common good.

Action: To present the real picture of what our current real estate industry is doing, while promoting an healthy alternative to begin healing both the community of humanity and the nature-human relationship.

The Return of Bison and Wolf
instigating North America’s eco-renaissance
Problem: a multi-level problem exists on the Great Plains of North America  - decline of ecosystem quality, decline in quality of beef livestock, the comparative loss of kinds and numbers of species over the long haul.  Also, the consumption of beef is now linked to Alzheimer's disease.

Action: This resource presents an alternative, visionary use of the Great Plains  - the return of the bison herds, the return of wolf populations to "shepherd" and strengthen the bison, and the restoration of prairie floral systems.  The overall picture uses this initial ecological renaissance as a starting point for full ecological restoration of the North American continent.
