Back to the Basic Tenets

The tenets at the beginning of this chapter have hopefully been argued convincingly. No one model of change will work in each context, and no one can guarantee or accurately predict what the future will hold. However, the long span of history holds crucial clues.

As mentioned before, billions of people would be needed to shift society back to the necessary symbiotic systems with the watersheds that we have always returned to. Imagine small ponds and lakes and small-scale waterworks, within which are planted oxygenating lotus and chlorophyll nutritious algae. Imagine the new labor that would be freed up to develop nurturing economic hubs and profoundly resilient communities—the community organizing and facilitation skills and the diversity facilitation that would be infused at huge economic benefit. This includes the infusion of thousands of innovation hubs that apply human potential to physical, biological, and technological innovations, as well as psychological, artistic, and other creative interventions that develop greater harmony and imaginative human communities.

One would legitimately be concerned about the mode, process, and timing of this immense transition, even if it is urgently necessary. Can we just close down mega-industries and huge urban environments and “camp out” in dispersed decentralized communities? Do we imagine the migration of millions of people and millions of homes and buildings left empty? If this mega transition were in the wrong hands, there would be mass starvation, massive unemployment, and exacerbated mental and physical health as a result. Even in this regard, for this transition to be smooth, the control of socioeconomic system should pass into the hands of Sadvipras as mentioned in the concluding Chapter 13. While my expertise is not sufficient, as any anthropologist, I would look for the trends and model projects that show the pragmatic and realistic timetables with which to actually begin the transition. We can also look to past civilizations that were quick enough in this transition to be successful. Let us take “what is” to transition to “what will become” as our adage.

Each of the diverse experiments in state-wide socialism and communism have ended in the same disasters. When given resources and capacity, people in rural areas will rapidly shift to the time-honored decentralized, autonomous mode. Simultaneously re-weaving the human ecosystem into the fabric of the watershed will return to the mental primacy of the watershed to human existence. Large urban centers, while being divested of the aforementioned wastage of trillions of dollars, can convert to hubs of exchange of knowledge and information, the regional convergence of people when collaboration is needed, and restructuring of the current global transportation system back to the regional.

There are countless examples in every niche of the planet that provide the course of the future and offer the potential for planetary change. There are self-reliant economic regions that focus primarily on the sustainability of natural resources and have developed a people-based cooperative economy. Mondragon[31] in the Basque region of Spain is an example to follow closely. In Japan, disenchanted young adults are returning
