Blog year2008 in october is about ending poverty http://events.takingitglobal.org/20255 so we hope this week's syndication to 100 blogs will exponentialise to tens of thousands of blogs by then, with a little help from friends like you

sustainability club http://sustainabilityclub.com

social business club http://www.socialbusinessclub.net

collaboration cafe http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9nL_a0K97I

yunus 10000 http://yunus10000.com collaboration coordinators for youth dialogues in that city and between cities together with invitations to action specific to each video good news story - eg if you want microcredit to beat off big banks why not help any school try out micro credit with the world's simplest program small change, big changes - a microloanfoundation franchise

Peers across hemispheres and I are far more interested in ensuring that each of these intercity movements vetoes any uses of 20th c failing system methods that the majority of club coordinators -or where elected an honorary board - vote against, than prescribing revenue models.

OPEN SOURCING THE CLUBS
Obviously we should want coordinators to make a living out of work input whlst at the same time recognising that being a club coordinator is probably worth more than having many a professional qualification - or needs to become so if this world is to be sustainable. Equally where profits are repeatedly generated I assume we can find a way iof agreeing some sliding scale that should be contributed either to your favourite grassroots organsiation in bangladesh or to a small list of other potential grassroots partners of future capitalism which should probably need at least 75 of members refendum to confirm

I am very happy if people will negotiate what other rules they would need to want to participate as well as to clarify where they want diferent contant at the mother webs. The main web system I use costs $35 a year per web so its not difficult to imagine that major cties will also want to set up their own branch web or of course a free blog - either of which we will happily linmk from the top of the mother web.

Obviously some of our constitution needs double checking with for example the 100000 bangladeshi's and other Gandhians who are the main practical exemplar of the values we seek to network worldwide so that the future sustains 7 billion brilliant jobs and goodwill multiplying across all women, children and even men.

We wish to learn from each city's most successful ways of mobilising and cross-cultural celebration, as well as metods for ensuring that any action network actually reaches to those in most desperate need of its service. This is one of the big lessons of bangladeshi experience -reiterated by every micro-system designer in bangladesh we have interviewed - once a networks starts empowering the entrepreneur inside it will never get deeper than the deepest needsholders it begins with. This is a lesson that many global NGOs seem never to have begun to grade.

what's in the gore peer to peer training kit of I-Truth

One key element of it is an email invitation kit so that people who rsvp that they are coming to a meeting also have their details logged up at http://www.theclimateproject.org centre in Tenessee.

Instructions appear to be pretty minimal, as follows. I would happily debate them in more details or customised participation
(eg in your city or at your favourite hub is someone already waving the gore and if not should someone be?

or does part of your network want to see a screening, and if eg you are in DC region now should we co-host that?)

Similarly where I have pdf files I can relay these on if anyone wants to see more. I am assuming that the point of this exercise is to see how far world citizens can open source a common stimulus...please pass the mail on if relevant

Main Instructions from Al Gore's TeamIn order to participate in this phase of The Climate Project training you must agree to the following requirements:
1. Host at least FIVE screenings of the film within one year
2. Conduct a discussion after each screening, using a handbook and our guidelines to assist with this activityThink about and discuss your role and the role of environmental and community groups in solving global warming. • Are there any activities you will do differently as a result of watching the film and discussing it with people in your community? Are there any actions you will take?
3. Encourage party guests to complete our response cards - main questions are: 1. After seeing the film An Inconvenient Truth and discussing it with othere here today, I think it is important to confront global warming immediately. (circle one) 1 2 3 4 5 Strongly disagree Strongly agree 2. Will you take any of the following actions? (Circle all that apply) Examine your carbon footprint Purchase energy-efficient products for your home Curb use of fossil fuels for transportation Get involved in The Climate Project or local organization 3. I would like to register with The Climate Project and receive information about climate events, news and updates. (Circle one) Yes No
4. Provide The Climate Project with feedback including, but not limited to, your screening participants' names and email addresses
5. Collect and forward contact information from party guests who wish to learn more above solving the climate crisis

Al Gore has committed by fall 2006 to train 1000 people in Nashville to present the slides that are the basis of the film and book Inconveneint Truth

Who needs to be in this first network of ambassadors for inconvenient truth. Do you know a network that needs to send a representative. What would a map of the 1000 networks most likely to be able to change the world with the awareness of Inconveneint trurt's wave look like?

We have mailed this question out to these networks, please tell us if you know of a network who needs to reheasre this sort of question

Extracts from the Forbidden Question logs of algae researchers


June 2006; q True or False - alage oil has never been used to drive cars?
A:
large pilot scale growing of algae in the DOE programs that were closed down in 1996 it is unthinkable that the tones of oil produced were not used to operate ICE or other power plants, stationary or vehicular. What I think is the case is that such knowledge is repressed and information has been made inaccessible. Declaring that something has never been done will discourage some and simply challenge others. There is no doubt that an engine can run on vegetable oil. I just went to the Sunrise Celebration with a friend in his veg oil conversion car. On site we saw two veg oil (straight vegetable oil) cars and one Biogas (methane) van. Oil from algae is vegetable oil and so our primary purpose is to grow some and find our how to integrate algae production into the solaroof technology so that we can produce in volume.
