A New World Emerges: Creating a Sustainable Future for Generations to Come


It's an incredibly exciting time to be alive, as we now have the skills and technology available to create a civilization unlike anything that the world has ever known. I'm talking about a world where poverty and politics are foreign concepts and war is an obsolete misfortune of our past... a world where money is unnecessary because everyone lives in abundance, and every individual has the opportunity to actualize the highest expression of their potential while contributing to a more sustainable and peaceful future for generations to come. I'm talking about a world that we can be proud to hand down to our children and grandchildren without fear of what will happen to them. The vision is here, and the time is now.


Sound too good to be true? If so it's time to introduce yourself to a new program of thinking because helplessness is obsolete. Every day the world changes as a result of our individual choices, and to continue to believe that we do not have the ability to affect change is to accept an arbitrarily designed future that facilitates crime, war, poverty, suffering, and separation. Where we are today is the result of the culmination of decisions made in the past, and the future will be defined by the choices that we make today. It's time to stop waiting for society to change and realize deeply that you are society, and the choices of a single individual do matter.



Meet Jacque Fresco; a behavioral scientist, artist, inventor, industrial designer, and futurist with a vision unlike anything that you've ever imagined. This man has devoted his entire life to designing a social system free from the misfortunes of civilization today; and thus far has produced a more comprehensive plan for social reclamation than ever before imagined. He has been envisioning the future for almost a century, and has worked as both an innovator and inventor in a wide range of fields including aerospace, medicine, architecture, automotive design, psychology and much more. He is the founder of the Venus Project, the function of which is to prepare approaches and solutions to major problems that confront the world today. The Venus Project represents the culmination of Fresco’s life work: the integration of the best of science and technology into a comprehensive plan for a society based on human and environmental cooperation and sustainability. 


"The Venus Project proposes an alternative vision of what the future can be if we apply what we already know to achieve a sustainable new world civilization. It calls for a straightforward redesign of our culture in which the age-old inadequacies of war, poverty, hunger, debt and unnecessary human suffering are viewed not only as avoidable, but as totally unacceptable. Anything less will result in a continuation of the same catalog of problems inherent in today’s world."

“If we are genuinely concerned about the environment and fellow human beings, and want to end territorial disputes, war, crime, poverty, hunger, and the other problems that confront us today, the intelligent use of science and technology are the tools with which to achieve a new direction; one that will serve all people, and not just a select few.” — Jacque Fresco

Rather than accepting the misfortunes of a world without intelligent and ethical guidance, we can now apply our best knowledge to design integrated and cohesive systems that eliminate the psychological conditions that result in the problems inherent throughout human history. Scarcity is an obsolete concept because the earth provides more that sufficient resources if we manage them intelligently. The conditions that we see today are merely the product of a failing system. With unity and vision we can ensure that generations to come will not have to pay for the unfortunate mistakes of the past.

Remember, “we are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.” ― J.K. Rowling
