Before you dive in…

• You might want to start with this brief summary.

• If you are more interested in the spiritual aspect of life, start with Project 1 and read about the Projects in numerical order.

• If you are more oriented toward practical, material life, start from Project 5 and read about the Projects in reverse numerical order.

• You also might like to start with Project 0: Popcorn Time to set up a viewpoint that renders the whole process easy, enjoyable, totally effortless, and a kind of celebration. It is an entertaining, surprise-filled little book about "enlightenment". Dr. White (the Wizard of Amen) describes in simple, "scientific" layman's language a remarkable leap in consciousness that is happening around the globe right now. Once people put together the facts of reality that they heard about in high school, but were not really paying close attention to (for obvious teenager reasons), they discover that they have always been enlightened. As the enlightened viewpoint sweeps the planet, human civilization will be radically transformed

• At the end of Project 5, Chapter 1, I include a short list of references.

If you still want more…

Visit the Earth Policy Institute where you can read Lester Brown's book, Plan B: Rescuing a Planet UnderStress and a Civilization in Trouble, as well as many well-informed articles and updates on the topic of how to shape future Earth Policy. Brown fills in many details and references with respect to Projects 4 and 5. In his book he calls "Business as Usual" Plan A. I call my Plan for a Planet "Plan A" because Plan B must become our Plan A "Business as Usual" for the planet if we plan to stick around and pursue civilized business of any kind.
