Crown eco management guiding principles
Crown Eco Management has four guiding principles:
1. Independence - They maintain independence from any government or institution and are unimpaired by their interests.
2. Public Awareness - They prioritize educating the public to secure natural resources and believe informed people can maximize legislation to preserve the environment.
3. Sustainability - They have a long-term responsibility to preserve resources for future generations by managing human impact through experts to keep ecosystems productive and diverse enough to support humanity.

Introduction to sustainability principles 101 june 2 2010
The document provides an overview of sustainability principles and concepts being explored in Greensburg, Kansas. It discusses sustainability basics including relationships between time, change, and resilience.

Igniting Planetary Unity and Cooperation
This document outlines a framework called United Earth for uniting social and environmental movements toward achieving planetary unity and cultural transformation. It describes three complementary realms of transition - personal, local, and global. The global realm would introduce a system of whole-systems cultural redesign based on planetary unity and cooperation. United Earth is not an organization but a way to collaborate and promote initiatives with shared goals of caring for people and the planet, fair share for all, and mainstreaming solutions. A Conference of Movements and United Earth Manifesto are proposed to declare shared vision, principles, objectives and strategies toward inspiring a conscious transition to a life-sustaining human culture.

The document discusses how the ERRB (Economic, Regeneration and Recovery Board) can become more radical and effective (FAB) in its work. It notes that they need to be more radically inclusive by connecting with voices not currently in the room, such as those most affected by economic crises like the residents of Twerton and Radstock. It also states that the group needs to focus on specific shared projects, engage from the start with those who need change, and learn by doing work with key groups like architects, designers, financiers and social entrepreneurs. The work of socio-economic reform is difficult but the group must "start anywhere and follow it everywhere" to make progress.Recommended

Prosperity without growth tim jackson world tourism forum lucerne 2011
This document summarizes key points from the book "Prosperity without Growth" by Tim Jackson. It argues that economic growth is unsustainable and degrowth is unstable. It proposes an alternative model of "ecological investment, enterprise and macroeconomics" focused on low-carbon transition, social goods, capabilities and communities. This would establish resource limits, fix economics to be sustainable, and change the social logic around work, inequality and consumerism. The crisis requires imagining new models and a future not dependent on endless growth.

Presentation For Companies World Cleanup 2012
The document outlines plans for the World Cleanup 2012, a global civic initiative to clean up illegally dumped waste around the world between March and September 2012. Over 300 million volunteers from 100 countries are expected to collect 100 million tons of waste in a single day. The organizers have run similar national cleanup events since 2008. They aim to create the first global waste map and database to coordinate volunteers and track cleanup progress. The budget for preparations is 1.1 million euros. Partnerships with companies are sought to help with funding, promotion and volunteer engagement. The goal is to significantly reduce waste, raise environmental awareness, and bring communities together through a coordinated global cleanup effort.
Sustainability
This document discusses sustainability, sustainable development, and how to achieve sustainability. It defines sustainability as meeting present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs. Sustainable development aims to maintain socioeconomic systems indefinitely while fulfilling human needs and preserving the environment. The current socioeconomic system prioritizes exponential growth and is unsustainable due to finite resources. To achieve sustainability, the document proposes replacing the current system with a "Technocracy" where experts manage production to maximize living standards for as long as possible using energy credits instead of money.
Clean water conference (avoid crisis tone)
The National Aquarium in Baltimore updated its emergency plans after its Inner Harbor location was flooded by the storm surge from Tropical Storm Isabel in 2003. The document discusses strategic framing, a research-based approach to communicating about climate change in a way that helps people understand the issue, see themselves as part of the solution, and maintain a sense of hope. It describes cultural models, explanatory metaphors, community-level solutions, values-based messaging, and avoiding a crisis tone when discussing climate change.
Our Common Future
Balancing continued economic progress and conservation of our biosphere is the challenge of our time. It’s a dilemma of the anthropocene epoch. Without corporation to the mix, our endeavor is fruitless. Increasingly, corporations have adopted prescriptive, piecemeal and mechanistic environmental management techniques as a response to sustainability discourse. However, in light of the complexity, uncertainty, ambiguity and dynamic nature inherent in the sustainability challenge, at some bifurcation point in the organizational change process, these prescriptive and piecemeal solutions may not adequately account for the emerging multiple levels of environmental, social and financial conflict. A paradigm shift is thus essential: a behavioral change is thus called for. This presentation provides an explanation to the issue and a formulation to tackle challenge head-on: a behavioral competence that builds viable, equitable and responsible corporation resolving issues of sustainable business and sustainable world.
Metamorphosis - Mankind in Transition
This document outlines a vision and mission for sustainable economic transformation called Project Metamorphosis.

Without taking into account the many worldviews that currently co-exist and crafting ways of including them in a positive and healthy form we will continue to alienate vast sections of all communities of humankind.

Flourishing in an Age of Disruption TEFI 9: The Disruptive Power of Caring.
Anna Pollock discusses the need for deep change in the tourism industry to address sustainability issues and root causes of problems. She argues that the current industrial model of mass tourism is unsustainable and that a new story and operating model is needed that shifts the focus from growth to generating greater net benefits for all stakeholders. Pollock outlines five steps to transition to this new system: 1) changing mindsets to see the world in a new way, 2) shifting the purpose from growth to flourishing, 3) growing profit by investing in people, 4) unleashing the power of place, and 5) tourism leaders stepping up as hosts to convene change. The goal is to create "peak places" where tourism benefits communities and the environment

It notes the complex, interconnected nature of sustainability challenges and calls for deliberation beyond debate. It proposes a process of structured conversations to collectively dream of and work towards a more sustainable future.

Global Citizen Lecture.pptx
Introduction
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2009 is the latest in a series of education policies dating back to the very inception of the country in 1947. The review process for the National Education Policy 1998-2010 was initiated in 2005 and the first public document, the White Paper, was finalized in March 2007. The White Paper, as designed, became the basis for development of the Policy document. Though four years have elapsed between beginning and finalization of the exercise, the lag is due to a number of factors including the process of consultations adopted and significant political changes that took place in the country.
Two main reasons prompted the Ministry of Education (MOE) to launch the review in 2005 well before the time horizon of the existing Policy (1998 - 2010)1 : firstly, the Policy did not produce the desired educational results and performance remained deficient in several key aspects including access, quality and equity of educational opportunities and, secondly, Pakistan’s new international commitments to Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Dakar Framework of Action for Also the challenges triggered by globalization and nation’s quest for becoming a knowledge society in the wake of compelling domestic pressures like devolution and demographic transformations have necessitated a renewed commitment to proliferate quality education for all.
Specific Objectives of the Policy
The policy stated a clear vision as:
“Our education system must provide quality education to our children and youth to enable them to realize their individual potential and contribute to development of society and nation, creating a sense of Pakistani nationhood, the concepts of tolerance, social justice, democracy, their regional and local culture and history based on the basic ideology enunciated in the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.”
The major objectives of the policy arc as under:
• To revitalize the existing education system with a view to cater to social, political and spiritual needs of individuals and society.
• To play a fundamental role in the preservation of the ideals, which led to the creation of Pakistan and strengthen the concept of the basic ideology within the Islamic ethos enshrined in the 1973 Constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
• To create a sense of unity and nationhood and promote the desire to create a welfare State for the people of Pakistan
• To promote national cohesion by respecting all faiths and religions and recognize cultural and ethnic diversity.
• To promote social and cultural harmony through the conscious use of the educational process.
• To provide and ensure equal educational opportunities to all citizens of Pakistan and to provide minorities with adequate facilities for their cultural and religious development, enabling them to participate effectively in the overall national effort.
• To develop a self reliant individual, capable of analytical and original think
Webinar Presentation New Story for Earth

nurturing-evolutionary-friendships
The document discusses the formation of "Companions in Blessing," a loosely organized community seeking to live sustainably through "evolutionary friendships" in pairs ("Teams of Two") that provide mutual support. The pairs aim to think creatively about social and environmental problems while also supporting each other emotionally. The document outlines this approach and draws from various spiritual and social change models to support forming deep friendships that nurture courage and compassion needed to address global crises like climate change and nuclear issues.
Urban Hub 29 : Worlds within Worlds 1 - Entangled Cosmos
No one vision is sufficient in and of itself – visions can guide but only by collaborative action in a creative generative process can visions grow and become part of an ongoing positive sociocultural reality.
Without taking into account the many worldviews that currently co-exist and crafting ways of including them in a positive and healthy form we will continue to alienate vast sections of all communities of humankind
This volume deals with the predominately ‘exterior’ -that which can be measured or seen. ‘Behaviour’and‘Systems’.quadrants.
The Cosmos
Urban Hub 30 adds predominately the ‘interior’ – that which is felt. ‘Psycho’ and ‘Cultural’ quadrants – making the ‘whole’
The Kosmos
Children Are Smarter Than You Think
The document discusses multiple intelligences theory and its implications for education. It proposes that there are different types of intelligence beyond just linguistic and logical-mathematical abilities. The theory identifies eight main intelligences: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. It argues that education should seek to identify students' strengths in these different areas and design lessons accordingly using meaningful activities and cooperative learning. The challenges for teachers include discovering students' multiple intelligences and changing practices to incorporate different skills and intelligences.

The Ecology of Transformation Katia Sol PhD Defense Nov 5 2013
This document summarizes a PhD dissertation on a study of the Ecology of Leadership program at the Regenerative Design Institute. The research examined practices that support individual and collective transformation in times of global crisis. A relational methodology was used that centered relationships and connections. Major findings included a "Tree Model" for inner transformation from self-connection to engagement in the world. Practices supporting self-connection, connection to nature, and connection to community were explored. Nature was found to be a teacher, healer, and mirror for personal growth.
HOW TO FIX THE WORLD
This document summarizes solutions submitted by 285 individuals from 37 countries for fixing problems in the world. It details the methodology used: an open call was made on the internet for essays on how to release hidden wealth and use it to improve societal systems and build a golden age. Nearly 300 submissions were organized into categories including problems, public opinions, and solutions. A team analyzed the data, conducted additional research, and compiled it into this summary report structured around topics such as government, education, health, etc. The goal is to gauge wisdom from many perspectives and share it with leaders to facilitate large-scale positive change.

Evolutionary leadership
Evolutionary leadership focuses on seeing things systemically and designing for sustainability. It involves developing six key competencies: personal evolution, systems thinking, design for sustainability, collaboration and innovation, emotions and language, and syntony and flow. Evolutionary leaders act as stewards, facilitate emergence of life-affirming realities, and are competent in systems thinking, feeling and being. They focus on co-adaptive challenges rather than technical problems. Sustainability means designing solutions that meet current needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs.

Circle Carbon Labs - Biochar & Compost
Circle Carbon Labs produces biochar by pyrolyzing biomass waste and mixing it with compost to colonize microorganisms. This biochar compost is used by farmers to grow trees, vegetables, and fruits organically. The biochar creates habitats for microorganisms in the soil, which improves soil health, sequesters carbon, and increases plant growth and food security. Circle Carbon Labs consults with farms and landowners on converting biomass to biochar using their mobile kiln or production facility to create healthy soil and climate resilience.
Circle Carbon Labs / APAEMA - Elaboració de Biochar
One afternoon and the following morning provided the opportunity to delve into the depths of biochar and composting, a UN acknowledged effective carbon sequestration technology. Twenty three people from different backgrounds living on Mallorca came together thanks to the organisation and close collaboration with APAEMA (apaema.net), the Mallorca Organic Growers Association.

Truth_is_a_Pathless_Land.vs3
- 1. Truth is a Pathless Land On Community and Fragmentation Exploring the legacy of Dr. David Bohm and Jiddu Krishnamurti Whereas today’s problems and challenges are global, solutions are first of all local, and largely personal. How can we develop solutions based on a “Choiceless Awareness” and facts? In this series of dialogues over several days, inspired by J. Krishnamurti and Dr. David Bohm, we explore our thoughts and actions while holding a space for something new to emerge. Together we look into possibilities and opportunities for a more sustainable, resilient, and self-sufficient world by identifying blind spots and bridging world-views. What are the risks to an environment that we depend on for our life? Is radical change possible if we join together and look at facts without separation? Moving from a fragmented and disconnected reality, can we re-connect and find “inclusiveness” in an often-divided Society? By looking at facts on Energy, Economy, and Ecology, what can be our role in the future that emerges? “ …I'd like to go into this question of meeting this enormous complex thing called living, existence, with an energy that is whole, non-fragmented, not broken up. And to find that energy, to come upon that energy, that is the problem. Is this fairly clear? We have exercised a great deal of energy to create this society, we have exercised a great deal of thought to bring about a religious order which is disorder, a discipline that has become mechanical, an energy which has produced an extraordinary technological advancement, an energy created by thought that has fragmented the world. So we first have to look at that energy - the energy that thought has created. Right?” - On Nature and the Environment, J. Krishnamurti, First Public Talk in Saanen, July 1975 Join this in-depth exploration of community and coherence beyond disruption and fragmentation. Welcome to the beautiful island of Mallorca, Spain from Wednesday to Sunday November 4th to 8th , 2015. See program, venue, and other details at: www.sacredvalleydialogues.org The dialogues will be facilitated by Christer Söderberg using a varied methodology including: Journaling, Contemplative Practice and Open Space.
