If you were thinking
dollars ($$$$$$) you would be wrong.
This story is all
about Subscribers, or Likes, or Followers, Members of a group, or
perhaps even Volunteers…eventually.
I think of these
people as the Pioneers, the early adopters, the activists in today’s
lingo.
They are the
avant-garde, the panzer divisions, those members of Society that
always seem to be on the leading edge – like in fashion, technology
or perhaps following new trends or customs in other areas.
Why the number one
million?
That’s easy, I/we
are really looking for some Help on our Project. Certainly not a
million Volunteers, but we hope that perhaps 10% of the people that
stop by, who find links to our Sites and wish to Help, will connect
with us here.
So we really need
about 100,000 volunteers to Begin.
Now I am sure many
questions are running through your mind at this point:
-
What is this
project?
-
Why do they
need a hundred thousand Volunteers?
-
Why don’t
they just Crowd-Source for Financial Support and then simply pay
some workers to do the job?
-
Who are these
people and what are they trying to do?
Let us try to answer
these questions with a riddle, a quandary of sorts, a dilemma or a
puzzle. You see, we have been working on a subset of the Main Issue
for the past several years. However, hard work does not always result
in a solution, but that, often, may only be seen in hindsight.
You see, I/we set
ourselves a goal to attempt to completely Eliminate Poverty on this
planet by 2030 (Scan
down to see the active Clock today and see the Years until Poverty
Gone) but as you can see from the Clock, time has elapsed but
just some small Progress was made due to several major problems that
surfaced:
-
Funding
-
Promotion
-
Recruiting
Help
-
and Attitude
Let’s discuss the
last one – Attitude first.
Our world today is a
very stressful, demanding, fast-paced environment, where so many
people work long hours, often both husband and wife must work to
support the Family, and at the end of the work week, if they even
have a job, each just wants to crash in front of the TV or perhaps
party with friends if they are in the younger age groups.
No time to help
others, just catch up with their friends on Facebook, check the
latest Twitter trends and prepare to start all over again as the next
week begins.
This Attitude, this
malaise is prevalent in all countries, not just in the developed
Nations.
This Attitude, plus
the way we make decisions – electing our representatives, or letting
powerful leaders make our decisions for us, this altogether is why
we, Humanity, all of us have used one and only one strategy for
making World Decisions – “Do Nothing” and hope for the
Best.
Scientists and
engineers have Warned us as early as 1969 of the Issues facing us
all, but we continue to follow Plan
A (“Do Nothing”).
But of course we
were/are all very busy. The Rich are busy making more money, more
Profit. The Poor, just trying to Survive, and the Inbetweens (The Not
Rich, the Not Poor) are similarly trying Survive and maybe even
striving to join those at the top – the wealthy elites, if they can
And so, most did not
find our Sites, our causes, most did not stop by and Volunteer, most
did not have the time, motivation or even interest in those less
fortunate.
But after two years
ago, Poverty
was Superseded by another Major World Issue, as we all continued
on our Plan A, the “Do Nothing” strategy; and that was
Global Warming (Climate Change).
So, at that point we
turned our attention to that cause.
Within a short time
we researched and created The
Tree Planting Project (TTPP), a Natural, a Simple way to reduce
the Atmospheric CO2 to Zero in 14 years, well ahead of the IPCC
suggested time frame.
We now you need many
people who are interested in mitigating this disaster so we can leave
a Legacy from this generation of actually “Doing Something”
that’s Plan B.
Oh, and by the way,
we also have a Simple and Sustainable solution for each of the Eight
Major World Issues including Global Warming and Poverty.
But we need
Volunteers:
-
To help with
our Funding program
-
To help with
Promotion
-
To help
recruit others
-
and to help
Fix the Planet before its too late.
Please Volunteer or
just Share or recommend this page/post to your friends and
acquaintances, we only have one Home, and as Buckminster Fuller
described in his book “Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth”,
we are all passengers on our spaceship Earth, are all on a journey
together through space, and our Destiny awaits, provided we make the
right decisions along the way.
