• THE PATHWAY TO EMERGENCE

  • Human viability depends on advancing Emergency action
  • in ways that facilitate Emergence of the
    • culture,
    • institutions,
    • technology, and
  • infrastructure
  • of an Ecological Civilization
  • guided by the maps of a 21st century eco-nomics.

• These are some action steps on the path to Emergence that follow from the Ubuntu Principle and its corollaries

  • Break up concentrations of corporate power, including private banks.
    • Restructure the individual pieces to support equitable, locally rooted participation in ownership.
    • Assure that every business is dedicated to and ultimately accountable for fulfilling a public purpose beneficial to the communities in which it does business. -Take democracy to the next level as a participatory process of community self-organization, not just a competitive voting contest between two or more candidates from opposing political parties funded by wealthy patrons. Replace GDP as the primary measure of economic performance with measures of the health and wellbeing of people, communities, and nature—giving priority to equality, material sufficiency, and spiritual abundance for all.
    • Eliminate financial speculation and free individuals, community businesses, and governments from perpetual debt bondage.
    • Transform our relationship to nature to restore and enhance its regenerative health and beauty as we learn to nurture ourselves in ways that nurture all.
    • Organize bioregionally defined political jurisdictions around urban hubs with strong rural-urban links that
      • seek to optimize regional environmental and labor self-reliance.
      • Eliminate inefficient land use by converting suburbs to rural-urban use.
    • Eliminate gas powered vehicles and redesign infrastructure
      • to minimize dependence on private cars in all but remote rural areas.
    • Minimize air travel by
      • vacationing locally within local rural-urban jurisdictions and
      • organize all but local meetings and conferences as web conferences.
    • Strengthen non-monetized relationships
      • between people and
      • between people and the lands and waters that sustain them.
    • Encourage responsible community-centric parenting and child development consistent with a just and prosperous future for all.
    • Invest in life sciences research advancing understanding of the organizing principles, structures, and processes of healthy living systems.
    • Accelerate
      • social innovation,
      • adaptation, and
      • learning by
        • nurturing cultural diversity and
        • removing intellectual property rights impediments to the free and open sharing of beneficial knowledge and technology. • Transform economics and management educa- tion to provide future leaders with the knowl- edge and skills needed to lead institutional transformation and the creation of resilient self-governing communities.
    • Organize material processes around
      • continuous circular flows and
      • minimize movement of
        • physical and
        • energy resources
          • both within and
        • between self-reliant bioregional communities

Second, we shape the work before giving it to a team. A small senior group works in parallel to the cycle teams. They define the key elements of a solution before we consider a project ready to bet on. Projects are defined at the right level of abstraction: concrete enough that the teams know what to do, yet abstract enough that they have room to work out the interesting details themselves.

Concrete Mixing Plant

As a company, we are sensitive to using advanced building technologies effectively for all our building and construction projects. As a matter of fact, the most important factor underlying the quality and safety standards that our company has achieved in all its projects so far is that we use building technologies effectively. We always follow technological developments that will help us achieve much better standards in construction applications. For this, we use the most innovative concrete mixing plant technology to realize the concrete applications without exception at the highest quality. We have been working with Elkon for many years to meet this need that has arisen in line with the intensive work of our company. As well as the high-quality standards of the company's concrete mixing plant products, we can ensure a high compatibility in our work with service offerings focused on projects. For this reason, we are working with Elkon firm on the need for a concrete mixing plant for each project that our company will start to realize. In addition to volume capacity options, mixers have a very rich model variety by means of technical functions. In this way, we can supply concrete plants, which are suitable for our needs created by the concrete application capacity in our project, from the company. With its superior technology and high-quality durability, we do not encounter any problems in our applications on concrete, which is the most common thing we use in our project sites. The serious problems that technical problems may cause in terms of construction projects are at everyone's discretion. Our company will continue to work in harmony with the company for all construction and building projects in the future, as it has enabled us to encounter these problems today. We would like to thank them for their quality responses to our requests up to now.

This is very similar to Haltmans primary text by saying our ideas should be concrete and physical. We should be able to grasp our ideas and see it vividly

This is very similar to the Primary text in that it reinforces the title of not writing with ideas but with objects. Haltman had a very conscious and specific desire for one to be more descriptive and vivid in the description of concrete items. This type of writing makes it easier for readers to picture and allows them to relate to and imagine one's writing. I have been using this kind of writing in my primary source description and it has helped my writing. These texts are very parallel in their main ideas.
