Abundance over Scarcity
Abundance over Scarcity emphasizes that abundance exists if we conserve, share, and develop creative solutions to eliminate scarcity. Scarcity of resources will always exist, but we can strive towards abundance by conserving and sharing plus developing alternative resources from abundant resources that have the same characteristics as the scarce resources.
“To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one’s own in the midst of abundance.” - Buddha
Abundance = conservation + sharing + creative solutions to eliminate scarcity.

The EarthCitizen Framework Project
We are striving to build a framework that Earth Citizens can use to guide various aspects of living life and collaborating to help life and happiness to thrive. The topics presented are much like an individual or a group (i.e. non-profit, company, etc.) guiding agreements, charter, values, responsibilities, mission statements, and/or paradigms.
