So much of and so many of our concerns are, in objective analysis, all too often reactionary, thus perpetuating an "us and them" bifurcation of society. This is due too often to only a partial ideological continuity, our not going beyond the comfort zones of our affinities to explore further, without any further calamities carrying us toward more fulfilling solutions and principles which may harbinge a healthier society.
Our "Occupy the World" and "Occupy [Locale]" endeavors are genuine, and once we break down the "Predation that is", what do we do, what do we have, how prepared will we be, if and when our emotionalism trumped preparation and common sense? Progressive Sustainability presents a forum offering a breadth of possibilities and options that may have lasting contributions to bringing about remediation of the problems preying upon humanity today.

PROUT is: * a coherent alternative to economic globalism based on neohumanist values, bioregional culture, economic decentralization, ecological balance, comprehensive sustainability, and planetary regulation of the global commons * a powerful challenge to neoliberalism, materialism, and post-modernism * a comprehensive ideological alternative to capitalism, communism, and anarchism * a promising path through the darkness of the present to the liberation of human potentialities *PROUT's cooperative model, based on cardinal human values and sharing the resources of the planet for the welfare of everyone, deserves our serious consideration. -- **Noam Chomsky* *PROUT is spiritual and utopian, while remaining grounded in reality. Its analysis is intelligent and its vision inspiring. -- **Howard Zinn* *PROUT is an important contribution to rethinking the disastrous course of the current economic globalization. -- **Hazel Henderson* RSVP Here, Please: http://99PercentSolution-11-7-11.has.it<http://99percentsolution-11-7-11.has.it/> For further information visit *http://PROUT.Shows.it/<http://prout.shows.it/> * or email proutshow...@gmail.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAAMN: Los Angeles Alternative Media Network --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: <mailto:laamn-unsubscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: <mailto:laamn-subscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digest: <mailto:laamn-dig...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help: <mailto:laamn-ow...@egroups.com?subject=laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post: <mailto:la...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive1: <http://www.egroups.com/messages/laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive2: <http://www.mail-archive.com/laamn@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yahoo!
