Pragmatic Utopia Creation – One Community Weekly Progress Update #119

Let’s engage in pragmatic utopia creation. The solutions to the greatest challenges our world is currently facing already exist. A world that works for everyone is no longer an unachievable idealistic dream. Through open source and self-replicating and self-sustainable teacher/demonstration models purposed to provide a healthier, sustainable, and more enjoyable living experience, we can create world change. One Community calls this living and creating for The Highest Good of All:

• Here’s our project overview
• Here’s our world-change methodology
• Here’s how this becomes self-replicating
• Here’s how we are open source and free-sharing all the do-it-yourself designs
