ABSTRACT: Learn to Do Better; Use a Lot Less
Since we are overusing earth’s resources, making a few substitutions is insufficient. We have to consume less. This problem is global, but global scale changes are impossible to organize. However, they can build up from patches of local area improvement. Three examples will illustrate the idea: 1) Scientific cleaning (called OS1); 2) improving community safety and security with fewer police and smaller budgets; and 3) study of local watersheds and water systems in order to live well using less water in the future.
A non-profit institute (The Compression Institute) is incubating these local issue learning groups to address bigger, more integrated, sustainable systems.
