Publisher's Synopsis
Much has been written, or discussed, about the collapsing society - but little has been offered in the way of solutions. This book has solutions which may just be the saviour for you, your family and the other people you care about if things do fail or you simply want out of the old system. This book is a manual for anyone who has ever questioned the type of world we are living in right now and who wants to create a new way of life. You can pick it up, read it, and instantly find steps to create a new society - one which will be fair and just for all.
You don't have to wonder where to start -
and you don't have to 'reinvent the wheel'.
The answers are here in this book for you!
With all the turmoil going on in the world, perhaps it's time for people take a more practical stand and start to actively CREATE the type of sustainable civilization we want to see. We must do this with ideas and concepts which are currently working successfully in cities, towns and villages all round the world and by consultation and also in a global think-tank of regular people, to discuss other ways which would achieve this objective.
We must do this without fanfare, violence or anger - but rather with logic, peace, spiritual methods and a quiet determination to do what's best for the people.
We are all humans, and it is our right to live on this planet and treat our world and the rest of the human race, with dignity, kindness, compassion and equity - the very things the old system is NOT accomplishing!
Part One discusses the issues with our current system.
Part Two of the book shows many ways we can change the systems which for so long, have been failing to support us. It points out how amazing people-power can be and how we can restructure our society and build our local communities to create, rather than eliminate, jobs and also how to make a much better and more equitable, sustainable, economic system and how this will benefit the people (and not corporate interests).
Part Three offers many reasons to be hopeful. It teaches you how to find and use a myriad of practical alternative solutions, methods and ideas to our current ways - instructing you about such things as how to do community building; create local currencies and make alternative housing which is affordable for everyone. You will also find ways to create alternative water sources, food and power supplies, worker co-ops, eco-villages - and much more. All of these ideas have been sourced (and used successfully) all over the world and you can use them to turn your community into one which can give you a good standard of life - alongside, or outside, the old-world systems.
You can't turn to anyone else right now. There are very few people who have any answers and essentially you are left out of the loop. The 'AlterQuest - Shape the Future' book will give you hope - but more than that, it WILL give you answers!
