Job One is a nonprofit climate change think tank and risk assessment organization founded in 2008. It is independent, 100% publicly funded, and uncensored by any government or corporation.

 

Prologue

This is the original Universe One and ClimateSafe Village (CSV) guide and model for everything you need to know about these climate change-prepared and resilient communities of the future.

The Universe One "survive and thrive" eco-community vision was originally developed by Job One for Humanity over several decades. The new Universe One community was designed to be a:

1. Climate change emergency prepared, adapted, and resilient community,

2. A lead example in the climate change resilience movement, 

3. A climate-prepared community that can assist other new climate change-prepared communities to come into being worldwide and

4. A lead community working out the needed changes so humanity never faces another similar climate change crisis again.

Universe One does have other purposes, as you will discover in reading through its guide, but for now, all you need to know is the four purposes above.

To help spread the ideas of Universe One, in 2023, Job One for Humanity helped to establish a new nonprofit called ClimateSafe Villages. This new non-profit organization is exclusively committed to creating climate change-resilient "survive and thrive "eco-communities worldwide using much of our research and materials. While the Universe One community maintains many unique features and rigorous membership criteria, it also continuously supports the creation of the many other eco-communities being guided into existence at the ClimateSafe Villages organization we helped to create.

Review these Universe One Guide pages only if you are seriously interested in joining the Universe One CSV model.

If you are browsing and you want to get an easy, beginning general sense of what we are doing, we strongly recommend you first explore the new ClimateSafe Villages website.

Some Additional Universe One, Job One, and CSV climate change emergency history is relevant here

ClimateSafe Villages (CSV) grew from the climate research at the Job One climate change think tank. The networked climate researchers there understood that the climate change emergency would get much worse before it got better. They also could see from their climate research that creating climate change-resilient communities would be essential for long-term climate change survival.

This means that Climatesafe Villages came into existence because a small group of networked climate change researchers understood three things everyone should know about their climate change future:

1. many severe future climate change consequences are now unavoidable. (This is  because our governments squandered the last 60 years with ineffective climate actions or no action.) 

2. because of these unavoidable and soon-arriving climate change consequences, emergency preparation, intense adaptation, and resilience-building have now become mandatory actions that must also be completed at a community level to survive long term. (Individuals or families alone cannot do everything that needs to be prepared and managed.)

3. their most probable unprepared future would be climate change suffering, disruption, and likely death, and they also wanted to protect their families, children, and grandchildren. 

The above is a lot to digest. But if you read the various pages on our website in the Learn section, you will soon understand why there is a need for these new emergency-prepared, highly adaptable climate-resilient communities.

Seeing their disturbing climate change future clearly, a team of volunteers at Job One then researched and developed a framework for what these new climate change-resilient communities must do to provide stable, long-term support and safety for their members. 

The next challenge these climate researchers and educators had was to make the complex climate change knowledge they had acquired from studying tens of thousands of pages of climate science and research understood more easily. Many other individuals also needed to understand why these new CSV communities would be needed.

They did succeed to a degree, but still, few people were willing to spend the time reading long, complex pages of climate change science. Luckily, they also discovered the Earth 2100 ABC TV video that tells the story of our climate change future well without difficult science reading.

For those who do not want to read long climate science pages, this ABC TV video will quickly visualize the basic facts of your climate change future. It provides this information framed in an intriguing story about a girl born in 2009 and what she will face over the decades. We believe it may get you thinking deeply about how you will deal with our escalating climate change emergency. 

This ABC TV video beautifully illuminates the future of humanity from 2009 to 2100. While we strongly recommend how good this video is, we also do so with important limitations and qualifications that we will share with you after you watch the video further down this page. 

When you are done watching the ABC Earth 2100 video below, please fill in the survey below and continue reading the rest of the article because you also need to know the ABC TV video's climate change information has limitations and inaccuracies. Unfortunately, these "limitations and inaccuracies" make the concerns expressed in the movie even worse!

A bit more relevant history and getting started information.

Once ClimateSafe Villages received its nonprofit status from the IRS in December 2023, Job One turned everything over to the CSV that we helped to set up but kept the Universe One vision and project as a separate project and community that would be created in continuous close collaboration with the new Climate Safe Villages organization.

Although many pages in this section on the Job One website also say ClimateSafe Villages, the information on these pages applies most directly to the Universe One community vision of a ClimateSafe Village.

The Universe One CSV is about finding, testing, and living that new and better way of life in a safe and sustainable educational eco-sanctuary in a rural area. But, even more importantly, it is indispensable for post-Great Collapse because it will help facilitate the Great Rebirth.

No matter where you currently live, the Universe One model and the four CSV village models described on these pages are designed to provide individuals and families with a secure, supportive, and sustainable living environment amidst the growing climate crisis challenges. By prioritizing self-sufficiency, adopting green technologies, and fostering a supportive community culture, we help ensure our members have the resources and skills to weather the many future uncertainties.

Even if you are not or have not considered joining one of these communities, we have much to offer you in the form of open-access information on preparing, adapting, and building climate change resilience in your home or business right where you live today.

Understand the Climate Change Emergency Driving the Creation of Universe One and the CSV Communities

The climate crisis is rapidly escalating, with devastating consequences for our planet and its inhabitants. Extreme weather events, biodiversity loss, and rising sea levels are just a few of our challenges. In response to this urgent situation, our Universe One and ClimateSafe Villages initiative seeks to build resilient, sustainable communities that can adapt to these changing conditions. By adopting innovative models and fostering collaboration, we aim to create a more hopeful future in the face of unprecedented environmental challenges.

Please Note: Nowhere on Earth will be 100% safe from all climate change consequences. But we can create climate-safer locations and communities using climate change preparation, adaptation, and resilience building. Universe One and ClimateSafe Villages will help you make wherever you live as climate-safe as possible. 

 

"ClimateSafe Villages is far more than just prepping for climate change or being a climate change prepper. Among many benefits it offers are the uncensored and un-politicized climate change causes, facts, tools, analysis, and effective climate change resilience building, preparation, adaptation, and solutions." Lawrence Wollersheim

When we say we are creating survive and thrive new ClimateSafe Villages worldwide, people have many different ideas of what that means. They often think of similar communities like intentional communities, co-housing communities, sustainability communities, resilience communities, prepper communities, degrowth communities, ecovillages, conservation communities, simplicity communities, deep adaptation communities, evolutionary communities, agrihoods, progressive preppers, eco-prepper, farmers cooperatives, eco-spiritual, even survivalist communities. 

While our four new ClimateSafe Village models may include and combine the best elements from many of these kinds of communities, they are also something new and quite unique. Our four ClimateSafe Village models also strive to transcend what we perceive to be the limitations, missing parts, or flaws in these other types of communities, and they are what you also could call true climate change-resilient survival communities.

Why does Universe One and the ClimateSafe Villages organization exist?

"True cultural change occurs when a small group of people finds a better way to live and the rest of us imitate them." Robert Brooks

Why are the wise preparing homes, businesses, and farms for rising climate change consequences? 

The following links you to a professional video made by ABC TV in 2009 called Earth 2100. We are reviewing it and promoting it because it is even more today than it was in 2009, and it will happen far sooner, about 2050-2070.

This ABC TV video also helps explain why Universe One and ClimateSafe Villages must exist, and it does so considerably easier than all the climate science links on the Job One website or the documentation links at the bottom of this page. It may send a chill through your whole being.

Documentation

We don't expect you to blindly believe us without being able to review the documentation. Here are a few of the 2009 ABC video limitations and inaccuracies and the 2025 climate updates. Over half of the above video's climate change timeframe and consequence predictions are relatively accurate. However, many other critical consequences and timeframes are underestimated by as much as 20 to 40%. We suspect ABC TV was using the widely available climate science funded or influenced by the well-funded global fossil fuel cartel's disinformation campaigns. (Click here if you are curious to see how the global fossil fuel cartel has wholly corrupted the process for fixing climate change, climate change severity predictions, and climate change timetables over the last 60 years.)

1. Most of what the ABC video says will happen by 2100 will probably be happening between 2060 and 2070. 
2. ABC did get very close to James Hanson's research, where he said once humanity crosses the carbon 386 parts per million in the atmosphere level, global warming becomes runaway global warming. That occurred in 2015. (Hansen is one of the world's most respected climate change researchers.)
3. At the end of the video, where ABC proposes climate change solutions, they are far from being in the correct priority sequence, and those ABC solutions will not save humanity in time from the worst climate change consequences! This ABC climate solution error is critical because they assert that our lives could be better by 2050 if we did the solutions they recommend. If we follow their suggestions, half the world's population will die by 2050. (See the documentation section below for the correct solutions governments must enact.)
4. Their proposed climate solutions are also tech and Wall Street finance-friendly. The idea we will "invest our way out of this crisis" is nonsense and shows they do not understand the real climate change timeframes and consequences. We have to radically cut fossil fuels right now to have any hope of having even a much smaller portion of humanity surviving. Climate change "business as usual" means we will cross more extinction-level climate change tipping points from 2025-2031. 
5. Nowhere in the ABC climate solutions do they call for sacrifice for our own families and future generations.
6. More 2023 climate change updates are in the documentation links below. 

Yet, despite all of the video's underestimation problems, the ABC video will walk you through the many layers of what your future will be like if we don't make radical global fossil fuel cuts before 2025 is over. Additionally, because it is doubtful we will cut global fossil fuel emissions by the required 75% by 2025, this video powerfully illuminates why you must start preparing, adapting, and possibly creating ClimateSafe Villages-like eco-communities worldwide so someone survives.

The ABC TV video is also great because it visually helps many understand why so many other individuals are waking up to their climate change-driven future and facing why they must immediately start preparing, adapting, and building climate change resilience in their homes, businesses, and communities. 

After watching this video, we recommend you take the survey below and learn more about how ClimateSafe Villages can help you survive and thrive through the climate change emergency longer and more comfortably. 

CSV is excited to announce that we are in the preliminary stages of forming our inaugural group of co-founding individuals who share our vision of creating a pioneering climate change-resilient eco-community. This community will be founded on the core principles and values that CSV holds dear, which include:

• Climate Change Resilience: We aim to develop an eco-community (and an open access sharable eco-community model) that is not only aware of the challenges posed by climate change but is also prepared to adapt and thrive, and help others do so in the face of such challenges.

• Equity: Our community will champion fairness and justice, ensuring that all members have equal opportunities and are treated with respect and dignity.

• Education: We believe in the power of knowledge and will prioritize continuous learning and growth for all community members.

• Environmental Sustainability: At the heart of our mission is a commitment to the environment. We will adopt practices that protect our planet and ensure a sustainable future for generations to come.

If the idea of being part of this groundbreaking CSV initiative resonates with you, we invite you to express your interest using this form.  Please note that filling out this survey form does not bind you to any commitment or guarantee a spot at this stage. climatesafevillages.org

Because of only this ongoing climate sensitivity error, the IPCC's newest climate consequence predictions, timeframes, and remedial action information will be underestimated by as much as 25% or more. (This 25% does not include the effect of the other IPCC errors described in the links just above.) 

All of the above-linked decades of IPCC error, calculation, and polarization problems mean that the IPCC is an unreliable partner for truthful and accurate climate change information. Their climate consequence predictions, timeframes, and remedial action information are grossly underestimated by 25 - 50 %+ and possibly more!

Please also note that since 2019, Job One has been aware of numerous climate change researchers who have been quietly moving their families to locations that are safer from climate change consequences. When climate change researchers move their families away from the higher climate change risk areas, it is reasonable to conclude that the escalating climate threat to our future is real.

We hope you liked the climate educational value of the  ABC TV Earth 2100 video as much as we did at Job One.
