Bucky had it right. "You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."
That's why we're awarding a $100,000 prize each year for comprehensive solutions that radically advance human well-being and ecosystem health. The 2008 prize will be conferred June 23rd in NYC.
The 2009 Challenge begins this fall. Stay tuned...

氣候正在急速改變, 南北極冰山正以超出一兩年前預期的速度在融化.在未來的三十年內, 全球百分之二十五的生物種族將面凌絕種的命運. 我們一手創造的文明也無法持續. 我認為令人感到困惑的是, 我們生活在一個如此富足的社會, 譬如如果你住在一個現代化都市, 如紐約, 你所需要的一切伸手可得. 食物直接送到你的面前, 世界各國的布料任你選購. 所以當開始接觸到描述全球劇變的文章時,我們才會感到困惑.
我在研究中開始發現 時間是我們身處之危機的核心. 如果你去思考我們使用在時間上的詞彙, 會有些有趣的發現. 我們說浪費時間, 花時間, 有時間, 沒時間, 時間就是金錢 所以我們隨時都認為"時間" 是有空間性的, 就在我們前面, 似乎伸手就能抓住. 但當我們真的伸出了手, 它又消逝無蹤.

Entheo:genesis - Awakening the Divine Within is a feature length documentary which invites
Entheo:genesis - Awakening the Divine Within is a feature length documentary which invites the viewer to rediscover an enchanted cosmos in the modern world by awakening to the divine within.
The film examines the re-emergence of archaic techniques of ecstacy in the modern world by weaving a synthesis of ecological and evolutionary awareness,electronic dance culture, and the current pharmacological re-evaluation of entheogenic compounds. Within a narrative framework that imagines consciousness itself to be evolving, Entheo:genesis documents the emergence of techno-shamanism in the post-modern world that frames the following questions: How can a renewal of ancient initiatory rites of passage alleviate our ecological crisis? What do trance dancing and festivals celebrating unbridled artistic expression speak to in our collective psyche? How do we re-invent ourselves in a disenchanted world from which God has long ago withdrawn? Entheo:genesis invites the viewer to consider that the answers to these questions lie within the consciousness of each and every human being, and are accessible if only we give ourselves permission to awaken to the divine within.
Stan Grof, Marilyn Schlitz, Ralph Metzner, Alex Grey, Terrence McKenna, John Markoff, Daniel Pinchbeck, and Kat Harrison among others, postulate how the disenchantment of the modern world may be remedied by summoning the courage to take the next leap in the evolution of planetary consciousness.
