The community for a post-carbon caring society.

About us

Common Earth is combatting climate change with a unique and comprehensive learning program. The program equips those concerned about the climate crisis with a profound and strategic understanding of how to create successful environmental interventions. Mission Possible The earth's temperature is rising. Humans are rapidly destroying the environment that sustains them in countless ways. The obscene inequality in distribution of wealth and innumerable other social inequities are growing. Structural racism seems to be ineradicable. People care about these issues but struggle to know what to do. For Common Earth, there are no obvious answers or easy solutions. Instead, we provide a holistic understanding of the various forces involved and help participants shift their thinking from hopelessness to possibility. We are building a community of people with this new perspective. Together this community can overcome the barriers and share in the emerging caring society that puts carbon in its place. Principles Common Earth looks for basic principles. They govern the entire universe. Gravity, electricity, and ecosystems are all governed by basic principles. There are even principles of how we experience life. When one understands a fundamental principle, effective action becomes possible. When you encounter a new principle, you see the bigger picture and new possibilities present themselves. It is easy to see this strategy in action. When the Wright Brothers understood Bernoulli's Principle, the possibility of fixed-wing flight emerged. So teaching basic principles is what Common Earth is all about. In-depth understandings of principles shift thinking and promote motivation to take effective action. A community of people armed with this deeper understanding of how the world works will be unstoppable. Changing our thinking changes the world we create.
