To truly get real about solving the climate crisis, or the related poverty and human rights crisis, or any other global issues common to humanity, requires having a basic set of foundational agreements about:
1) What the common root cause of these problems are; and
2) What constitutes a sustainable solution.

We believe it self-evident that the common cause is the Industrial Age economic model that creates money out of thin air, then requires the living people and the Earth pay the bill in labor or natures resources. When peoples labor pays the bill a debt crisis is eventually created with poverty the inevitable result; when nature pays the bill the environment is damaged. Only a few hundred years old, this economic model based on competiton and conflict has left our children a legacy of debt and a withering planetary environment.

"What an astounding thing it is to watch a civilization destroy its self because it is unable to re-examine the validity, under totally new circumstances, of an economic ideology." ~ Sir James Goldsmith


So What Is the Solution?
Information Age tools can relieve pressure on people and the environment.
Achieving this goal will require a common global community where even the poor can access digital wealth using a free peer to peer Information Age economic system where "value" is created from human elements of creativity (music, words, art) rather than natural resources.
A equal system where one can shoot an animal video instead of an animal, and provide wealth for their family earned by digital sales to a global audience. Prosperity Program in conjunction with Peace Portal Humanitarian Trust, and the FDU can meet this bold goal.

"If the Internet is going to become the engine of global commerce it's cracked up to be, it needs a currency it can call its own - a currency as nonproprietary and international as the Internet itself." ~ Wired

We must evolve to an Information Age socio-economic model for our future, and act responsibly to clean-up our mess if we wish to alleviate the problems caused by the the Industrial Age economy. This will not happen over-night, nor should it, our Plans and Projects are designed to ease the transition pains for humanity while relieving pressure on our environment using a Three Phase Plan.


Phase 1: Plan-It:
Identify causes and solutions, participants, and protocals

Phase 2: Plant-It
Implements solutions identified in phase one

Phase 3: Planet
Integrate solutions over a global network.

Implementing a global Information Age solution will take approximately one generation, it is happening already and will happen irrespective of our efforts; to direct this change in such a way as to also address poverty, freedom, and environment requires three things happen in coordinated synergy.

Peace Portal is therefore sponsoring Projects and Programs required to ensure that the coordinated energy required to achieve this goal can be accessed, added to, and achieved with minimum effort.
