meganmayTue, May 8, 2007 considering that the nine hottest years in the recorded history of the planet have all been in the last ten years, i think we should organize a rain dance. maybe we can do an entire day of raindancing all across los angeles and get others to dance with us. Though this may not be THE most proactive way of dealing with climate change, its an opportunity to cause a scene and get something moving. further detail to be annouced in the near future.
and props to necromelia and the poloroid nation
ALSO in reagards to rules:
I wonder what people would ACTUALLY do in a lawless society. to assume we need rules is to assume that human beings have some inherently negative desires that can not be kept at bay without a code of ethics or threat of punishment. how much of people's behavoir is controled by society and how much by their humanity alone? is there such thing as a human who's actions are not entirely shaped by the society they live in? (i just had to look up the word society in the dictionary because i got confused. as it turns out:
Society noun
1. the community, the (general) public, the people, the population; civilization, humankind, mankind, humanity.)
BUT If we have rules than do we have punishments?
AND i think at some point it will become clear what the goals of this society are, but i myself am not yet positively certain, and they can change over time. right now the goal is to figure out the goals, and in doing so, inadvertantly work towards them.
ONE OTHER THING i think we are overspecialized in money and have an inflated faith in survival based on monetary exchange. How would we survive without money? do we have to revert back to tribal societies? can we send food to one another in the mail. my garden is dying because it's too hot out side, how's the weather over there? send me an avacado please.
can we live in a microsociety managed over great distances? where does this microsociety begin and end as far as whats possible remotely?
