There are many things wrong about this world; It's time to stop complaining, and start doing. "The Venus Project" could be the most effective cause to transforming this wretched world into a beautiful one, and more and more of our generation---the generation of communication and connectivity---flock to this train of thought every day.
The core Aims and Proposals of The Venus Project are:
1. Realizing the declaration of the world's resources as being the common heritage of all people. (Giving up the concept of ownership in this regard)
2. Transcending the artificial boundaries that currently and arbitrarily separate people. ("Arbitrarily" meaning abstract classifications such as race or religion)
3. Replacing money-based nationalistic economies with a resource-based world economy. (Using our resources to their full abundance, while preserving the dynamic equilibrium of replenishment)
4. Assisting in stabilizing the world’s population through education and voluntary birth control.
5. Reclaiming and restoring the natural environment to the best of our ability.
6. Redesigning cities, transportation systems, agricultural industries, and industrial plants so that they are energy efficient, clean, and able to conveniently serve the needs of all people.
7. Gradually outgrowing corporate entities and governments, (local, national, or supra-national) as means of social management.
8. Sharing and applying new technologies for the benefit of all nations.
9. Developing and using clean renewable energy sources.
10. Manufacturing the highest quality products for the benefit of the world’s people.
11. Requiring environmental impact studies prior to construction of any mega projects.
12. Encouraging the widest range of creativity and incentive toward constructive endeavour.
13. Outgrowing nationalism, bigotry, and prejudice through education.
14. Eliminating elitism, technical or otherwise.
15. Arriving at methodologies by careful research rather than random opinions.
16. Enhancing communication in schools so that our language is relevant to the physical conditions of the world.
17. Providing not only the necessities of life, but also offering challenges that stimulate the mind while emphasizing individuality rather than uniformity.
18. Finally, preparing people intellectually and emotionally for the changes and challenges that lie ahead.

It seems as though people are terrified to let go of widespread and deep-rooted concepts, such as accumulating capital and hording possessions. Are you willing to be part of the solution to the world, or are you afraid of change?
