The Benefits of the New Vision of Personalized Democracy for ClimateSafe Villages

Last updated 3.29.23 

Welcome to the original CSV master model for everything you ever would want to know about ClimateSafe Villages (CSV), the climate-resilient eco-communities of the future. Of course, the ongoing discussion forums at CSV will continue to add to the factors found in our 6-page CSV master model. 

Review this page only if you are seriously interested and are near to making a final decision about creating a local version of your own or if you want to join one of our four ClimateSafe Village models. If you are browsing or want to get a beginning sense of who we are and what we are doing, we strongly recommend you explore the new ClimateSafe Villages website to more easily introduce you to the many benefits of these unique and now necessary communities.

Please click here to go to our newfar less complex ClimateSafe Village website to start exploring the many positive possibilities.

Overview

On an earlier page of our ClimateSafe eco-community overview, we promised to list the benefits of a new form of personalized democracy. We believe that Personal Democracy (PD) will create a superior new form of democracy that resolves current deep structural problems in all political systems and can be used at scales from community "political" operations to city, state, nation, and even global political operations.

Personal democracy will play a significant role in managing the New ClimateSafe Villages. Personal democracy will hopefully also become a substantial part of our new eco-communities management system. (Independent eco-communities may or may not choose to implement its principles.)

A white paper that explains Personal Democracy processes and benefits  linked at the bottom of this page.

Here is the promised benefit shortlist of our new form of direct Personalized Democracy 

1. Each citizen's voice is captured and directly implemented in all government actions that affect them. This means "majoritarian" voting oppression is eliminated.

2. To achieve the equivalent of current legislative action, a group of coordinators who are experts in each needed aspect of a social rule or area are formed. Their oath is to create a process that fulfills as many requests as possible within sustainability and social equity boundaries. That is, a government body no longer selects laws from 2 polarized bills created by representatives. Laws are constructed using community communication processes that fully address and implement every citizen's voice within the constraints of a sustainable natural world and in balance with community needs.

3. Every citizen is given a direct voice to track and evaluate all programs' implementation and effectiveness. This ensures accurate and fair outcomes for all programs.

4. Because governing actions directly represent all people's will, there are no longer elections of people to whom the power of decision is granted. This means there are no longer political parties that divide society. Joint social action is instead steered to the optimization of the Quality of Life for each person.

5. Because both laws and implementation are based on all citizens' direct involvement, corruption and racist or favored group-biased implementation are inherently eliminated.

6. This new form of direct democracy directly eliminates authoritarianism and destructive predatory competition from all businesses, institutions, and organizations. The currently needed warning "Buyer Beware" is eliminated from society and replaced by a much higher cooperative competition principle. All organizations exist first for the benefit and well-being of citizens and the society, then for the benefit of their specific purpose.

7. Discoveries have been made that identify severe limitations in human mental abilities to deal with modern complexity. The operating principles of Personalized Democracy incorporate methods to eliminate these limitations and the interpersonal strife we observe as gridlock in governments, the polarization of society, and war.

8. Here is a white paper explaining the above benefits and processes of Personal Democracy in detail.

 

 

How to Join Any One of Our Four ClimateSafe Village Models

If you have read enough and see the value and need for our various eco-community models, please join and help with this worthy and meaningful work. We invite everyone interested to help us grow and enhance our eco-community models with your ideas, wisdom, and efforts.

If we cooperate and get started now, we can still be prepared for the critical 2025-2031 threshold. From 2025-2031, climate change consequences will go from their current linear progression into an exponential progression because of many climate change tipping points crossed and climate feedback loops triggered.

Here are the most critical initial areas where new members, volunteers, and especially project managers are needed. These areas are law, fund-raising, finance, eco-friendly architectural community design, online and offline education, sustainable general contracting, construction, plumbing, electrical, administrative management, recruiting and human resources, medical services, wellness services, therapeutic psychological services, internet security, software design, permaculture, organic gardening, animal husbandry, and public relations. 

There are just four simple steps to get started:

Step 1. Sign up for our eco-community information and alert mailing list for this virtual by clicking here.

Step 2. Please email us at ([email protected]). Tell us which model of the four eco-community models you want to join.

Step 3. In that email, let us know any skill or experience you have that could be helpful to any needed skill or knowledge area mentioned on our five eco-community pages. 

Step 4. In that email, be sure to let us know which location you are in now or which location you plan to move to so we might connect you with others working in or near that location.

Once we receive your email, we will get back to you, let you know your next membership application steps, and as applicable, connect you with the eco-community project leader or lead member in the area closest to you.
