Nature: Honoring Life
Understand, Define, and Live in Alignment
We strive to understand, define and live in alignment with the natural laws that allow for life and happiness to thrive.
“Nature has its own laws and it is in our best interest to acknowledge them and align our behavior accordingly. We must be prepared to find out that what we think to be true today will be updated tomorrow. This is the emergent nature of knowledge. We learn from our mistakes. All errors are really gifts, for they can bring us to a higher level of understanding.” - Jacque Fresco (1916 - present)
Nature is the Source of Life
The nature value is dedicated to observing, respecting, and living in balance with our natural world and honoring the sources of life; the Earth, Sun, and Universe.

Energy must be present for life to exist.

Balance is required to thrive.
Earth

Life exists here because of the interaction between the sun, moon and earth.

Suffering exists because we crave.

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.
