humanity culture venus
The Venus Project presents a bold, new direction for humanity that entails nothing less than the total redesign of our culture.
air self water
As we begin to plan for a new human society, we need to foster common values about clean air, water, and other elements of self-sustenance. These, along with a complete inventory of Earth's resources, will form the basis for a holistic approach to cybernated decision-making.
way answers absurd
When somebody asks, 'Whats the answer to all of these questions?' that's absurd. There is no answer, there are answers, along the way.
cities perfect design
There's no such thing as designing the perfect utopian city. Everything is subject to change. There are no final frontiers.

We could either develop paradise on Earth or oblivion; wipe ourselves out, only the future will tell. It's what you do to make the future.
design way utopian
There's no way to design a society that's optimal or utopian. It's better than the one that was. Systems always undergo change.
issues said
There isn't anything that is said that 'someone' won't take issue with.
technology development evolution
When biological technology becomes further advanced, human beings as we know them, will become a modified species. If we as human beings fail to include the possibility of this development in our overall, social evolution we will witness the decline of our species
love-you love-is order
And you can't find "love" because in order to find "love" you have to be capable of dishing it out. In order to be capable of giving "love", your own life has to be in harmony with everything else, and that's not attainable...
