A tale of taking on the impossible but most relevant task.

To save the planet from the human plague- peacefully C:

Part autobiography of my attempts to apply nonprofit, parts  reasoning that led me to deliberately ruin my promising life. Parts poetry and art, and most importantly an introduction to a concept that I believe can do the trick. How to roll it out if gains support, and how to keep it genuine and free from human selfishness into a bio-diverse eternity.

Likely Apocalypse / Likely Solution

It is a working title but the theme is certain.

It is unmade/incomplete, so is beyond disbelief.

Introducing the way I believe we can..

Yet how I for now have failed to implement it.

Save the planet, via nonprofit.

Applied economic idealism, empowered by consumer behavior.

The book is in the very early stages of creation, but concept is clear.

Factors:

Global scenario, factors toward apocalypse.

Present The Charity Theory, and likely benefits.

Review of attempts to implement: The Field Creative and projects.

The personal journey.

Poetry that relates to the themes.

Art that relates to themes.

Present new project concepts.

Outline next steps toward implementation.

And how to keep it clean.

Early notes, variations of possible text:

Sustainability, the ultimate challenge.

The theory begins with consumer choice. If you give people the option to buy from nonprofit instead of business- and they do, then the profit margin from transactions goes to transition the workforce into environmental and social projects.

On a big enough scale it can transition the effects of our plague upon the natural world. If its integrity is held- perpetual sustainability.

Just by selling products and services- but as non-profit. So, no owner, no cream off the top. On a mass scale.. It can recreate public, make real inroads into sustainable industry- possibly, given trends like FB, Uber & Air BnB, very quickly..

I verged on committing to do my thesis on it for years, instead tried for 5 years to implement- but failed. Then became a busking street poet, advocating from the curb with angles to avoid directly preaching c; Got really good and thought could break through as a performer, little actual traction.. Yet feel still close.

Then can advocate directly and freely to a broader audience than a thesis could afford. Then via establishing a nonprofit art/music agency, create a relatively independent communications and distribution infrastructure and facilitate other offerings.

Humanity is a plague destroying the planet.

Many say another mass extinction event is inevitable anyway.

Yet humans are the cause, aware of the effects, and persist..

Extinction is through the roof, the need is obvious!

Charity has long been advocated by great people.

What is proposed in this book is that it can become the primary operating system.

Simply via consumer choice!

At age 24 I was striving for personal success.

Had a Degree in International Business, Post-Grad Diploma in Marketing, Real Estate Salespersons Certificate, had been President of my University, worked all kinds of jobs and saved up $40,000 as a deposit for my first house..

But froze, saw the rat race and worse- saw its bitter end.

The success that was seeking was hollow.

SO ATTEMPTED AND FAILED, to save the planet.

But, once you have seen the future, delved into feelings and contributing factors.

And found what you believe to be a sollution.

There is no turning back!

In my usual style, of presentation it will be part proposition, part parody, with poetic expression and art entwined. Yet this time there is a theme.

Saving the planet, by transitioning to a non-profit economy.

The theory will be presented, and method to implement proposed.

The book will be part biography, explaining the background and experiences that has led to these beliefs. Chapters will include:

The process of attempting to implement, setting up nonprofit University Clubs and projects, successes and failures.

The plan itself, the informal thesis. That given the option people would buy from nonprofit if given the option.

The way a nonprofit system could be kept clean from personal greed and empower a sustainable eternity.

The next steps from now, to begin to offer products and services and get the ball rolling.

And a countless array of ideals, environmental and humanitarian projects that are worth giving a shot.

MANY GREAT THINGS ARE HAPPENING, but the transition to sustainability is tragically slow, there is still far more damage than repair going on. WE MUST TRANSITION THE ECONOMY, AND CHARITY CAN DO IT.

I have been at this in various ways, attempting and advocating since 2005, this is my journey and these my intentions.

Many propositions will be put in the form of poetry as to also lighten the vibe and entertain. So hopefully inviting a broader readership to the greater concept.

With footnotes to concepts launched via poetry in earlier books. E.g.:

Others include: Hoarders Metropolis. Sea Sided City. Build A Free City. You Don’t Have To Pay For Toilets In The Country. Market For Broken Marble Statues. In The Garden and others which you can already seen in the freEbooks “Jumping Goat Fish”, “Not Yetti”, “The Woodpecker’s Daydream” and “The Judgemental Authoritarian”.

Much of the book is underway, countless attempts to do the theory justice in the past exist. The concept is clear and obvious in my head, but putting it in to words in a concise way, to convey to others is the challenge at hand.

The bit of creative writing below explains it in a dramatic way..

PLANET Y

The plague had great flaws their operating system and still aimed to grow..

Open on a scene of space from space, pan across to PLANET Y.

The only known BIO-DIVERSE planet.

Land and water laden with the MIRACLE OF LIFE.

But look, it is currently being ravaged by an advanced PLAGUE OF APES.

They are technologically endowed and DESTROYING THE ECOSYSTEM.

It is obvious even to them that they have A STRANGLE HOLD on the planet.

Some of the plague TRY AND SAVE IT, most are either undecided don’t care.

Regardless, the plague of Apes CANNOT CHANGE COURSE.

As they are blindly patriotic to A THEORY CALLED CAPITALISM.

It’s their chosen OPERATING SYSTEM, geared for growth and profit.

VARIOUS MODELS once gave other aims and motivators, but failed.

Many Apes were CURSED WITH FORESIGHT of obvious apocalypse.

One that studied capitalism saw an EXTREMELY SIMPLE SOLUTION.

CAPITALISM IS ENTRENCHED, but what if there is an option..

A way to PLANT AN IDEA within it and not need change the laws.

So the Apes were given an option: TO BUY FROM NOT-FOR-PROFIT.

To purchase just regular and irregular stuff, GOODS AND SERVICES.

All profits from sales went to ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL PROJECTS.

Created SYSTEMS THAT ENABLED projects with skills, resources, and finance.

A wave of SUSTAINABLE JOB OPTIONS opened up for the workforce.

Apes that bought or not started seeing the results, THEN IT WENT VIRAL..

So this is how CHARITY CONSUMED CAPITALISM smoothly like an economic fig tree.

The flow of money and action shifted.

It:

REDISTRIBUTED WEALTH

PRIORITIZED AND PRESERVED ENVIRONMENT

RECREATED PUBLIC SPACES AND SERVICES

And ENABLED A BIO-DIVERSE ETERNITY

This bit of creative writing is slightly more utopian..:

Perspective vs. Polay 08/01/08

As I look up at the sky, up from the earth to and through the layers of clouds, transparently apparently the wind moves the trees, meanwhile we dance with them. Decisions made and habits masquerade, advice within and without played. A knowing nothingness, perspective vs. polay, all to set free or to hoard it away, mine and yours, ours allay.

So past the clouds and satellites,

through oxygen,

water,

co2- whatever all gaseous polaroids,

through the moon,

galaxy,

universe,

vs.

Back through the Earth!

Sinking through us, past, present, future- forget speed- not now!

NOW!

So time started afresh, bigger than a new years or a millennium, this was when humanity resolved its habits. That “NOW!” quelled the anxiety, felt the nature, was in the space, all life forms equal in the miracle- society was reformed, perspective vs. polay.

Periodically random pages with single taglines, eg:

FOR ANY FUTURIST THE OUTLOOK IS GRIM.

Meanwhile they spin, toward creating the increasingly obvious apocalypse..

Recreate public by buying products and services from genuine nonprofit..

The most impossible challenge in the universe is worth it..

Redirect money, and through this human activity.

THEY ARE MOTIVATED BY A CONCEPT OF MONEY.

WE CAN MOTIVATE THEM WITH ANOTHER CONCEPT OF MONEY.

A redefinition of personal and national success, applied eternity.

On the scale of economic relativity..

FUTURISTS and ENVIRONMENTALISTS fused as FUTUREMENTALISTS

(and were medicated to relieve their concerns.)

What is important in the book, is exposing the concept to a broader readership beyond but including academics. The performance of the poetry after the fact ought to promote it also.

From there it is hoped to attract support in order to actually implement C:

Here’s to the future!
