Certainly worth review.  It is a great “story” well illustrated.  The structure 
allows you to stop, discuss, move on and build a reaction/response in a 
constructive way.

So much of Open Space is the glue that holds such behaviour together.   Right 
now we need to brake the shackles of “winner take all” as the chaos in the 
Wider community is dominated by a few who seek total control.   Such stories 
rise about the normal debate level and pose challenges that can be discussed 
and consensus is a real outcome.

Too many people in the world feel they have no “voice” and as nations disappear 
under the sea or in the conflagration of wild fire.   Leaders choose to seek 
diversions from the real question of the sustainability of the whole world.

Videos like this provide choices and help move conversations to levels that can 
address the big issues rather than who has power.

Statesmanship is required, sorry I do not have a gender neutral way of 
describing this.  One reason is that it is so rare we do not have common nouns 
in our common conversations to describe these persons and their behaviour.

The video captures this tension and asks can we use these ideas on a global 
scale?  The answer is an emphatic YES.  Remember “the power of one” and the 
impact that each of us can make if we chose this “way less travelled”.  My 
limited mobility combined with my health issues requires that I work on myself 
and my small circle of friends.  My challenge to the young healthy and mobile 
of us will you give it a go?  The rewards are simply a healthy place to live 
well into the future.  The consequences are that in a very short time we will 
have nowhere to live and survival will become a life threatening activity.
