Shangri-La, Utopia, or Community Planet

Most of us have heard of utopia or ShangriLa (or maybe even have seen the 1937 movie Lost Horizon). Jack Reed’s vision goes a little beyond these. He discusses his vision with Chuck Harder in this episode. Click here to listen to this discussion. He foresees a community that would lead others throughout the world to live not only in an ecological community but one where all is done for the highest good of all concerned. “There is no fixing the system we’re in now- we need to change the model, belief system we are in now.” How does he purport to do this? He has formulated a consensus building process that would determine how decisions are made on the local level that would benefit all. Reed has written a book,The Next Evolution: A Blueprint for Transforming the Planet, which can be purchased by clicking here. Reed’s website is CommunityPlanet.org. Chuck doesn’t seem completely in agreement here-makes for some interesting listening.
