CHOOSING EARTH
From Immense Challenges to Great Possibilities
Dear Friends of the Future,
Swift action is needed to respond to climate disruption, species extinction, mass migrations, and much more. These challenges are so urgent they require us to mobilize every muscle of human ingenuity, cooperation, and good will. We can do this!
The next great superpower is us — ordinary citizens around the Earth who mobilize our inner and outer capacities and call for unprecedented cooperation and creative action on behalf of all life.
To support a generative conversation around the Earth, we have three important gifts for you — our free film, book, and group guide — that offer a big picture perspective and deep insights for turning our path toward a more inclusive and welcoming future.
In collaboration,
Duane & Coleen Elgin
