This three part documentary is downloadable for free online.

After the end of World War II, the United States began a campaign to position itself strategically around the globe so that in the event of another war it would be more powerful than it's enemies. The terrible lesson of World War II was that never again could an amoral and dictatorial power be allowed to dominate the world.

The enemies of America in World War II were national powers bent on spreading their empires through violence, installing puppet regimes and seizing the resources of other countries for their own use, so that they could strengthen their ability to further their own strategic interests and wage war against their enemies. The United States could not allow this to happen again.

Phi Beta Iota:  5 million is not serious.  100 million would be serious.  What is happening here is that all of the various civil society elements continue to play their isolationist “me me me” games.  From Occupy and the Tea Party to Ron Paul to Dennis Kucinich to Rocky Anderson to Jill Stein to the IndependentVoting mob, no one wants to actually come together to achieve results — these are all self-centered campaigns, not real campaigns.  A cultural hack is needed — and that is why Open Source Everything is now a meme, a mind-set, and a method.

WHAT IF:

. Consumers had a tool to tell quickly and easily tell, at the time of purchase, if the product or production methods resulted in significant adverse environmental or social impact?

. The complex information of this impact could be presented by as a scoring based personalized set of preferences?

. People finally had an economic tool which through purchase would compel corporate practices toward sustainability not just profit?

This website contains a recently patented tool called the Universal Ecolabel which can perform all these functions and more. It even allows the individual consumer to monitor his total personal/family environmental footprint over time.

In coming months interactive website activities are envisioned that will provide consumers the opportunity to educate themselves and others as well as contribute to a growing body of sustainability knowledge
