Regional Coordinators Required in the UK

Submitted by Andrew Keel, Published on Sun, 09/23/2012 - 16:04

Zeitgeist UK administrators are urgently looking to fill up spaces within our regional coordination team. We have split the UK up into 13 regions, and most of these have been filled with 1 or 2 coordinators. However, some regions have no coordinators, and for other regions we would like to expand the team.

Below is a list of regions within the UK:

Urgently Required
Wales
South West England
East Midlands
Highlands & Islands - Scotland

These remaining regions have a regional coordinator assigned, but we need more.

A month ago I attended the wedding of a close friend of mine. It was a beautiful, non-religious ceremony and a fantastic time was had by most during the following reception. During the reception I began a conversation with one of the bride's close friends from her university days.

The Zeitgeist Movement
Without money, we'd all be rich

To anyone thinking outside of the tunnel-vision of just themselves and their own survival, the atmosphere of change is electric. We've never in the history of our lives seen such a peak of global dissent and such an outpouring of citizenry coming together - a reaction against the growing elephant in the room: the inequality and unfairness of our social system.

*This is a repost of an article written on Fathers Day 2012*

If you happen to order fish and chips at any point tomorrow in the UK, amongst the greasy second-hand newspaper used to line the take-away box, you might catch sight of a bent corner of an article by Damien McElroy of The Telegraph on the mysterious story of “Forest Boy”, a young man named Robin Van Helsum, a 20-year old from Hengelo in the Netherlands.

Z Day 2012 London

Submitted by Rev07, Published on Sun, 04/08/2012 - 04:53

A year is a long time and a lot can happen.

Since Z-Day 2011, there has been the 'will they, won't they' of the Greek debt default debacle, Arab Spring uprisings, Bin Laden found and killed (allegedly), a million people marching through London's streets (with several hundred then camping there) with a riot reminiscent of the 1980's, a tsunami in Japan resulting in a nuclear episode, and of course the fallout between The Zeitgeist Movement's founder, Peter Joseph and The Venus Project's Jacque Fresco.

London & Cardiff Z-Day 2012 Review

Submitted by Daniel Lloyd, Published on Sun, 03/25/2012 - 20:04

I went to London looking forward to seeing how strong an event the London Z-Day would be in comparison to last year (because last year's was the main global event and so obviously was likely to have a strong showing). I wasn't disappointed.

Z-Day is an annual awareness-raising day the Zeitgeist Movement has to get people together through talks/lectures and discussions about the goal of a resource-based economy and the way forward to a healthy society.
