Prologue

CCPARM means the "Climate Change Preparation, Adaptation, Resilience Building, and Migration Movement (CCPARM)." The CCPARM section of our website contains the original CCPARM Model (also known as CCPAR). It covers everything you need to know to create a climate-prepared future and build climate-prepared communities that can withstand much of the accelerating polycrisis. 

Here is a simple statement for the reason why the CCPARM vision, particularly as it is projected in the Universe One model, exists:

Currently, people worldwide are becoming consciously (and subconsciously) aware of the accelerating polycrisis and the accelerating likelihood of a widespread global collapse. They are also witnessing increasing political economic, and social dysfunction worldwide. They see rising environmental unsustainability; high-level and overt public-sector dishonesty; widespread social and economic injustice; the black-and-white thinking of rising religious fundamentalism filtering into many governments; anti-science, anti-rational thinking and policies taking increasing control of more and more power structures around the world, and the rising greed, privilege and control of poorly educated, poorly socially-emotionally developed billionaires.

From these trends, it doesn't take a genius to either know (or feel intuitively) that widespread parts of human society and our global civilization are on a direct and accelerating path to collapse. Based on what we and many others are seeing and sensing, we were compelled to develop the CCPARM model and vision. It is designed to create physical survival islands of factual reality and balanced philosophical wisdom that respect science, rationality, justice, and a sustainable environment.

Because of the above, several years ago, we helped cofound ClimateSafe Villages (CSV). It was also designed to advance and use many parts of the CCPARM model found on these pages. (CSV does differ from the general CCPARM vision and model in that it provides more one-on-one support and community-building interactions.)

If you see the phrase "Universe One," note that it is a very special variation of the CCPARM model. We continually upgrade our CCPARM pages. 

After reading the introductory page below, to learn more about the CCPARM vision and model, please review our CCPARM Guide here.

 

Introduction

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

The CCPARM "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.

CCPARM has other purposes, as you will discover in its guide, but for now, all you need to know is the four purposes above.

While the CCPARM and community maintains many unique features and rigorous membership criteria, it also continuously supports the creation of many other eco-communities being guided into existence at the ClimateSafe Villages organization we helped to create.

Introduction

A social contract is a document that spells out the basic principles that members of a group or community agree to use to guide their actions and decisions. It is also something they agree to live by.

The following is the base social contract used in CCPARM and at Job One for Humanity.

CCPARM and ClimateSafe Village's four models. Each independent Job One for Humanity CCPARM and ClimateSafe Village may add or delete items as that CCPARM and ClimateSafe Village chooses. A fully independent ClimateSafe Village may construct completely different social contracts.

When someone is accepted into one of the Job One for Humanity CCPARM and ClimateSafe Village models, they are asked to sign the following social contract, which signifies their agreement with its principles for guiding our ClimateSafe Villages.

The Basic Social Contract

At present, there are only 11 principles that all members must understand and agree to live by:

Principle 1: Society shall respect and protect the Quality of Life for each individual. That is, this new Principle turns the focus of a new society away from the distraction of “solidifying government power” to understanding the goals of life for each individual on our planet.

Principle 2: ALL ORGANIZATIONS created by society are for the benefit of the individuals in the society. That is, every organization in society must be organized for the primary benefit of the individuals in the society, not the other way around.

Principle 3: Respect for individual thinking but not individual conclusions. While the “right” of each individual to “think” whatever they want would still be “respected,” what they “conclude,” and specifically, “what they say or express,” is no longer unlimited. In fact, every statement or expression a person makes would be weighed according to the other principles.

Principle 4: Rewards in proportion to social contribution. This principle recognizes an inherent human need for motivation to produce effort. It also recognizes that each shares its space and activity on the planet with many others. It also recognizes the need to replace luck, an unearned reward, with the reliability of results earned through effort and wisdom. 

Principle 5: Sustainable world, sustainable society. This principle forces societies to use systematic methods and scientific measurements to plan their actions for long-term sustainability with respect for the ecosystems in which they live.

Principle 6: Efficiency to support sustainability. This requires applying system analysis to minimize waste in both materials and effort. When done in harmony with Principle 1, the human benefit is significantly increased. And with the application of wise efficiencies in sustainable productivity, there are surpluses for charity and unexpected emergencies.

Principle 7: Beauty should be captured throughout human environments. To understand this, consider images of ancient architecture. Why has humanity replaced this with slums and miles of “strip malls”? Why have we “paved paradise to put up parking lots”?

Principle 8: Responsibility for personal, family, and local society development. A primary goal for all eco-community level actions would be to understand how to nurture value in personal, family, and social efforts, and how social coordination benefits all people.

Principle 9: Respect logical thinking based on material reality. This principle rejects organizing society in any way that relies on appeals to magic, superstition, human intuition, or supernatural interventions, without proof based on tangible and verifiable natural observations. It also prevents an individual or group from imposing their views on others.

Principle 10: Understand Human Psychology, Evolution, and History. This stresses the need for society to study, formally and globally, the immense and often negative impact that human psychology, evolution, and history have in shaping the behaviors that create human culture. New wisdom that results from these studies should be incorporated into the guiding principles that shape world culture. Understanding human psychology, evolution, and history is also critical to avoiding the mistakes of the past and creating a better future.

Principle 11: Understand that ALL individual and community freedoms have corresponding and equal responsibilities. This principle also creates healthy boundaries with others and the community. This principle is essential for individual and community peace, stability, and growth.

This set of 11 fundamental principles was developed to build a new foundation for an improved society. These principles capture the wisdom of the great sages of history and the discoveries of the underlying flaws that led to modern society’s collapse. While superficially appearing to be simple common wisdom, they are actually a rigorous system derived by applying System Analysis design methods to over 3600 vital concepts related to social harmony. The results provide answers to many of the enduring questions of the ages. They also lay out a path to understanding the major social puzzles of our time and eliminating the world's insanity we are living with.

Please also note that in the Job One for Humanity ClimateSafe Villages, members also agree to strive to achieve and live the individual and community values expressed on this page.
