Take a stand to change the course of history

Humanity is on an unsustainable path, headed in a direction that no one wants—and there is limited time to turn things around. At the same time, the solutions and technologies to address this crisis already exist. What is missing is the commitment and will to act. FOUR YEARS. GO. is about generating that will.

Four years.Go.

No matter how many times I watch this video, it never fails to shock, awe and inspire. Take a couple of minutes to watch it, and if you've seen it before, perhaps you'll have the same experience I have had. Better than anything I can say, this video explains why I pin my hopes to the work of all of us at Four Years.Go. Yes, I'm involved now, doing what I can.



Learn more about Four Years.Go. and consider making a commitment to help galvanize "the collective will that makes this new dream the guiding principle of our time by the end of 2014." What will you be committing to? Here's the language from the Four Years.Go. web site.

I stand for a new dream ~

A Thriving, Just and Sustainable

Way of Life for All.

I am committed to galvanizing the collective will that makes this new dream the guiding principle of our time by the end of 2014.

This is my vow to myself and all beings.

As an expression of my participation, I will:

✥ Communicate with others and invite them to join in this commitment

✥ Adopt lifestyle practices and take actions consistent with my stand

✥ Educate myself about the issues and solutions

✥ Create my own form of participation

That's it. You decide how you will participate. I participate primarily by continuing the work of these blogs and by changing my daily habits, one conscious choice at a time. I also work with the people of Four Years.Go. and support the work of other organizations that are working to achieve similar goals.

How you participate is entirely up to you. The important thing is that we begin to work together in such numbers that positive change--reaching a tipping point toward sustainability, fairness and justice for all human beings--is inevitable.

We've got four years, maybe less, maybe a little more. After that, we may have moved too far beyond the tipping point the other way to save our civilization from the effects of irreversible climate change. That's not all of course. There's a lot of evil done in the pursuit of satisfying greed and the lust for power, and it seems to be getting worse. That's got to tip the other way too.

Will you join me?

Can you imagine living in a world that is just, sustainable, and fulfilling?

The year is 2014. A major shift has occurred, transforming life as we know it. Today, the world is on track like never before toward supporting a just, sustainable and fulfilling life for all. Those three things. What is your every day like in this new world?

I've been wrestling with this question since becoming involved with Four Years.Go., the campaign to create a shift, in four short years, that will set the world on a track toward a just, sustainable and fulfilling world for all. The question many of us are asking each other, as we work toward this goal is: What will the world be like in four years if we have achieved this shift?

So I'm asking you. There are lots of ways to answer the question. We can start by answering other questions. What would a typical day in your life be like if you were living sustainably, if world leaders, national leaders in every country, and individuals everywhere were working toward justice for all, and if your own life were completely fulfilling?

What would you have to do between now and December 31, 2014, to achieve these goals in your life and to help achieve them in the world? Would it be worth it to you to begin today? What first steps would you take? What next steps would you plan for, and when would you be ready to take them?
