Our society is not sustainable

Most of us seem to know that human society is unsustainable. Crises include:
  1. Climate chaos and catastrophe ... See "How to really solve climate change"
  2. L-curve distribution of wealth and power ... which makes democracy impossible
  3. The resurgence of Authoritarian leaders ... i.e. System transformation (backwards to the Triangle System)
  4. Destroying common resources ... e.g.Overcoming the Tragedy of the Commons
  5. Pandemics ... e.g. Covid 19
The simple answer is for "all the people" to come together, face these problems, co-create win/win solutions and provide responsible leadership to governments and institutions. This new way of operating, by itself, represents a transformation of governance, economics and "human nature", not even counting the deliberate changes "We" would make. ...Naturally most people see this giant step forward impossible to achieve. But with new understandings about systems thinking, facilitative change, choice-creating, etc., it becomes clear that the Wisdom Council Process can facilitate this new level of collective wisdom.

"The ToBe Project" can facilitate the needed societal transformation

See our proposal to "Together 1st" ( the UN and the Global Challenges Foundation ) ... for implementing a Global Wisdom Council Process:
