have a skill that would contribute to this
development
, please let us know when we begin to setup the teams. A whole section of the website will be devoted to this interaction and focus. As we grow, full conferences will emerge. In time, we will eventually be able to begin the first city, even if it is only a prototype of sorts. Final Thoughts: There are many out there who would say that what we are describing here, that is the
development
of a Resource-Based Global Economy, would never happen. They would typically cite "human nature", the "power elite" or erroneous technical opinions in their defense. This cynicism has no support in view of humanity's technical and
social
development
throughout history. We have come from a
world
of extreme superstition, abject slavery and extreme racism and
social
prejudice, to a slowly emerging
world
of race equality, scientific ingenuity and emerging values that desire to see humanity benefit as a whole. In the words of Carl Sagan:
"The old appeals to racial, sexual and religious chauvinism, to rabid nationalist fervor, are beginning not to work. A new consciousness is developing which sees the earth as a single organism, and recognizes that an organism at war with itself, is doomed. We are one planet."76
We have gone from smoke signals to the telephone to electronic mail sent at near the speed of light. Everything that has once been considered impossible has gradually become possible. The Wright Brothers were told by "experts" that it was impossible to fly...years ago people who talked of traveling to the moon were dismissed and labeled as "Mooniacs". To assume something is `impossible' in this
world
is a failure of creativity. If 120,000 people can come together to build a nuclear bomb, as was done with the Manhattan Project in the late 1930s, there is no reason why we cannot come together and use human ingenuity to accomplish incredible
social
achievements for the betterment of humanity. It is time we unleash our `Weapons of Mass Creation' (WMCs) unto the
world
. It is time we take responsibility for each other and ourselves. We have the knowledge, means and initiative to devise an entirely new
social
architecture that can create a
world
we actually enjoy and flourish in. Very simply, it is time to grow up.
