Description: learning from our planets workable living systems we will finally learn how to work for the benefit of our human species and the planet as a whole
"The picture of globalization and the needs and aspirations of the human community are clarifying now and we can get on with the task of insuring our civilization against demise. We can prove ourselves a mature species, ready to learn from our parent planet‟s four and a half billion years of experience in evolving workable living systems. The beloved American author Mark Twain tells the story of a young man returning from his first forays out into the world, amazed on hearing his father speak—surprised at all his father has learned while he as gone. It is of course a characterization not of new learning in the father, but in the son. The son's budding maturity lies in his new ability to listen to an elder‟s accumulated wisdom. When we humans, after all a very young species, drop our adolescent arrogance of thinking we know it all and read the wisdom in our parent planet‟s accumulated experience of living systems design, we too will mature as a species, to our own benefit and that of all other species, as well as the planet itself."
