Many activists wonder how the future will unfold and many TZM members wonder how exactly the resource-based economy will work. The following is my on-point perspective, and I don't think I'm wrong:
We begin with a single term: open-source. At its core, open-source is about sharing knowledge. What is it? How does it work? How is it made, maintained, and designed?

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.

The desert sunshine and 80 degree temperatures may seem like a gift in March, but to residents of Phoenix, they are a portent of the triple digit inferno that is July. So, faced with the opportunity to attend a conference in Vancouver, B.C., I seized winter by the coat-tails and flew with a friend to Portland, Oregon for a road-trip up the northwest coast. Vancouver’s rainy cloud-cover animated its glass and steel skyline.

Most but not all of these folks fall into an activism category which believe the government needs to be adjusted to meet the needs of certain segments of the population. That generally means the poor or otherwise disenfranchised.
Most of us reading here know that doesn't work. Separating out segments of the population for special treatment by government just means more government, more overhead and generally less success. But how do you explain this to that group of progressives who see RBE ideas as no more than a new label for Libertarianism?

Anunciando un nuevo documental inspirado en Zeitgeist, titulado "Owned & Operated". La película (un tanto centrada en los Estados Unidos) echa un vistazo al mundo tal y como es, y el camino decadente por el que actualmente vamos, tanto como el despertar mundial que ha comenzado a tener lugar.
La película culmina en una visión prudentemente optimista del futuro, y trata de demostrarnos que la raza humana no es sólo un experimento en vano/desperdiciado.

Estaba viendo un documental de la BBC sobre el Pacífico Sur en el que se mostraron diferentes islas, aisladas en este océano y cómo se las han arreglado para sobrevivir con poco o ningún contacto con el mundo moderno. El show trajo a colación a la fascinante isla de Pascua, con sus famosas estatuas de piedra llamadas moais.
