Inquiry: What could/would it look like to channel the knowledge gleaned from the Symposium and it’s participants through the infrastructure of the ATD/Pachamama Alliance into the co-creation of fully self-sustaining communities?
This also includes Embracing/Embodying the practice of the “Sacred Art of Living”
1. Note… UNESCO is working with the UN on a 2010 World Fair in Egypt at the base of the pyramids. Their objective is to showcase a fully self-sustaining model for “Leave No Trace REFUGEE Camps” and promote World Peace. Heather Salmon is working with the team who is visioning and working on this project and the possible use of the Burningman model. Also interesting to note is why Refugee Camps would be considered the thing to showcase if something rather serious wasn’t anticipated to be coming down the pike so to speak. Given the fact that 80% of the World’s population lives within 100 miles of the rising sea shores and with Solar Cycle 24 expected to peak in 2011/12 which is expected to have the ability to take out satellites, electrical grid systems, etc., it might be a very worthy endeavor to examine this area further.
2. Examining/Identifying the Physical Infrastructure and technological requirements for full self-sustainability:
- power, water, food, shelter, methods of exchange
- solar panels, wind power
- green houses
- consideration regarding climate and sustainability
- understanding the practicality and validity of Geodesic domes
i. Buckminster Fuller (movie “The Next Industrial Revolution” is about his life)
ii. Wood frame vs. poly carbonates
1. double paned walls
- www.WorldsNest.com located in Taos, New Mexico, this house/retreat center is a showcase of self-sustainability. They:
1. Generate their own power;
2. Collect, clean and recycle their water times;
3. Process their own waste;
4. Grow their own food;
5. Do their own health care!
Heather’s friends with creators/founders Robert Plarr and Victoria Peters
3. Examples of Existing Communities:
- Morehouse (Teri Sugg lived there for 18 years beginning in 1968; a community of 40-60 people);
i. Supported themselves by teaching what they’ve learned by living together
ii. She said that a strength was that everybody felt like they had power and everyone had the right to say no.
iii. A weakness was that there existed a sense of superiority within the group. Also the leader died a few years ago and there is now more of a female presence and more of a willingness to connect with other groups.
- Harbin Hot Springs (www.Harbin.org) – Heather Salmon is in a 3 month Candidacy for Residency; 150 person community, operating for almost 40 years
- Others: 12 Tribes, Universal Temple of Higher Consciousness, Love Israel Family (Heather has visited);
- Rocky Mountain Institute (www.RMI.org) – Amory Windstar Lovins (has a 50’ dome w/ 3 different levels, solar panels, biodome)
- Ideas for analysis:
i. examine strengths/weaknesses, ancient practices vs. new/radical approaches; shared values
4. www.HolacracyOne.com – remodeling how we organize ourselves; deepening the space around sovereignty
- Wisdom Councils – are about dynamic facilitation and how we tap into the intelligence of the group and make recommendations
- EXAMPLE: Landless Workers movement in Brazil (MST, PT, Workers Party)
i. they take over unused land
ii. have a participatory budget process to determine where they want the money to go.
- we can use more examples within the symposium which help to move us out of conceptual ideas and into action (also good usage of WiserEarth.com)
5. Global Happiness Index
6. Lessons from Brazil and indigenous cultures (examples of what’s working)
7. Using the symposium as a catalyst for the networking of sustainable groups/communities.
8. Importance of creating mutually beneficial relationships with the Alliance.
- for example, the SF Urban Alliance for Sustainability has opened its door as a multiuse facility that is/can provide housing, gathering space, showcase center, etc. and is grateful for the opportunity to support the work of the Pachamama Alliance and the Awakening the Dreamer Symposium and feel like there could/should be a way to reciprocate the benefit. This could be by connecting facilitators with a way to experience some tangible material and personal benefit for themselves that could directly impact their ability to live a more Green and self-sustaining lives.
9. Indymedia/Wiser Earth – great opportunities to share best practices.

The circle always makes the assumption that the baring of an typographical error is identical with the ascertaining of actually - that the error and truth are plainly opposite.
