The truth at any cost lowers all other costs — curated by former US spy Robert David Steele.
I will not replicate all that is at www.oss.net and to a much lesser extent, www.earth-intelligence.net, but do want to recognize a handful of extraordinary individuals by isolating their especially meritorious contributiions to the long-running debate about national intelligence reform and re-invention.

Worth a Look: Real-Time Intelligence (RTI)
Ms. Carol Dumaine is one of a very small number of individuals who have sought to pursue what Gifford Pinchot calls “intrapreneurship,” but on a global scale.
She first came to international attention when she pioneered Global Futures Partnership, an analytic endeavor seeking to enhance outreach and cross-fertilization across varied communities of practice.
She received the following recognition from the emergent M4IS2 community in 2002:
Global Futures Partnership, Central Intelligence Agency
OSS '02: 21st Century Emerging Leadership Award. Global Futures Partnership, Central Intelligence Agency. Under the leadership of Carol Dumaine with her extraordinary vision, the Global Futures Partnership has created strategic learning forums bringing the rich perspectives of the outside world into the classified environment in a manner never before attempted. This official but revolutionary endeavor nurtures an outside-in channel for integrating a diversity of perspectives. It is a vanguard toward a future in which the lines between national and global intelligence, and between governmental and nongovernmental intelligence, are blurred into extinction.
She is interested in the areas of “knowledge ecosystems,” “ecologies of innovation,” and “collective intelligence” for applicable models, practices and theories which may be useful to prototyping a new capacity for “strategic intelligence” in energy and environmental security.
Carol Dumaine is a graduate of Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service and has a Master's degree from Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies.

You and I Can End Climate Change Right Now. And all at negligible cost.
“Don't need to…. … Not possible…. …. Don't bother…. ….. Doesn't exist…. ….. It's all natural…. …… Much too complex.”
Says Big Oil, with $5 billion a week budget to spend on advertising, public relations and bribery, and to massively influence the media.

Only four things that will end climate change.
1: SOIL BRINGS ATMOSPHERIC CO2 LEVELS BACK TO NORMAL.
We remove the accumulated excess carbon dioxide from our atmosphere and get it back to what it has safely been for the last million years. We do this by modifying our agricultural practices to enhance the buildup of soil organic matter. It cheap and easy. (And if it didn’t work it won’t cost us anything) Go to THE SOIL CARBON SOLUTION for details. See also Climate Change Terminated 2 on Youtube.
PROBLEM —– The agrochemical market is huge and they don’t intend to go out of business. Also most agrochemicals are petroleum based.
