The Choice is Ours (2016) Official
LØSNINGEN FOR FREMTIDEN?
Venus prosjektet har vært omtalt tidligere her i Arena Filmklubb.
Ressursbasert økonomi som løsning for bærekraftig samfunnsutvikling - med fokus på helhetlig økologisk samhandling mellom mennesker og naturressurser som gir grunnlag for bosettingen.
Jaque Fresco fyller 100 år iår, og er fortsatt aktiv for å spre sin visjon.
Først de siste årene har hans tanker og visjoner fått økt interesse og lokale grupper over hele verden forsøker å få igang lokale prosjekter som kan bidra til endringer for trygge lokalsamfunn i fremtiden.
Jeg er en ivrig entusiast (iniativtaker for bla. denne klubben) og du må gjerne ta kontakt. Sjekk lenken til høyre.

This
film series explores many aspects of our society. To rethink what is
possible in our world, we need to consider what kind of world we want to
live in. Although we refer to it as civilization, it is anything but
civilized. Visions of global unity & fellowship have long inspired
humanity, yet the social arrangements up to the present have largely
failed to produce a peaceful and productive world. While we appear to
be technically advanced, our values and behaviors are not. The
possibility of an optimistic future is in stark contrast to our current
social, economic, and environmental dilemmas. The Choice Is Ours
includes interviews with notable scientists, media professionals,
authors, and other thinkers exploring the difficulties we face.
Part
I provides an introduction and overview of cultural & environmental
conditions that are untenable for a sustainable world civilization. It
explores the determinants of behavior to dispel the myth of “human
nature”, while demonstrating how environment shapes behavior. The
science of behavior is an important - yet largely missing - ingredient
in our culture.
Part II questions the values, behaviors, and
consequences of our social structures, and illustrates how our global
monetary system is obsolete and increasingly insufficient to meet the
needs of most people. Critical consideration of the banking, media, and
criminal justice systems reveals these institutions for what they
really are: tools of social control managed by the established political
and economic elite. If we stay the present course, the familiar cycles
of crime, economic booms & busts, war, and further environmental
destruction are inevitable.
Part III explains the methods and
potential of science. It proposes solutions that we can apply at
present to eliminate the use of non-renewable sources of energy. It
depicts the vision of The Venus Project to build an entirely new world
from the ground up: a “redesign of the culture”, where all enjoy a high
standard of living, free of servitude and debt, while also protecting
the environment.
Part IV explains how it is not just architecture
and a social structure that is in desperate need of change, but our
values which have been handed down from centuries ago. They too need to
be updated to our technological age, which has the potential to
eliminate our scarcity-driven societies of today. Our problems are
mostly of our own making, but we can still turn things around before the
point of no return. It’s not too late for an optimistic outlook on the
fantastic possibilities that lie before us.
