WEBVTT 00:00:03.714 --> 00:00:08.402 The world is the way it is today because of the stories 00:00:08.402 --> 00:00:10.873 we have communicated to each other 00:00:11.470 --> 00:00:15.369 Every culture has a mythology that answers the basic questions who are you, 00:00:15.369 --> 00:00:18.235 what is a human being, what's important in life, 00:00:18.617 --> 00:00:23.197 how does change happen in the world. Where do we come from, where are we going. 00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:37.426 One of the problems with the old story within western culture is that 00:00:37.518 --> 00:00:41.903 it has perpetuated a sense of separation between humans and the planet. 00:00:41.934 --> 00:00:45.144 We are putting so much pressure on the environment. 00:00:45.160 --> 00:00:49.346 So much pressure on poor people. So much pressure on the atmosphere. 00:00:49.576 --> 00:00:56.814 Never before has a mass industrial civilization run on the principles of interconnectedness. 00:00:56.860 --> 00:01:01.300 We need the perspectives of different cultures in order to weave 00:01:01.300 --> 00:01:03.578 the story for humanity of the future. 00:01:03.636 --> 00:01:08.783 Not try to reach a single story, but figure out what are our common values. 00:01:09.737 --> 00:01:12.620 #Whatever your political party 00:01:14.651 --> 00:01:17.792 #or whatever the colour of your skin 00:01:18.884 --> 00:01:21.610 #we are all in this together 00:01:23.856 --> 00:01:27.758 #and only together can we do something 00:01:28.097 --> 00:01:34.012 The Western world is discovering its role on the co-creation of a new world on this planet. 00:01:34.228 --> 00:01:40.493 For real change, not just small changes, but major changes, systemic changes. 00:01:40.493 --> 00:01:45.943 We have the collective intelligence to create all the solutions we might need. 00:01:45.943 --> 00:01:50.682 It's not just solutions out there, it's solutions in here. 00:01:50.682 --> 00:01:53.009 We're not going to get out of this environmental mess 00:01:53.009 --> 00:01:55.147 by science and policy alone. 00:01:56.766 --> 00:01:59.042 #We are all in this together 00:02:01.367 --> 00:02:05.298 #and only together can we do something 00:02:05.298 --> 00:02:10.519 We need to build a movement that connects ecology, social justice and cosmology 00:02:10.519 --> 00:02:16.137 using the power of dream, the power of story, the power of art and the power of action. 00:02:16.275 --> 00:02:24.368 Anything that anybody does that is for life automatically makes you 00:02:24.368 --> 00:02:27.937 a revolutionary for our species. 00:02:29.906 --> 00:02:33.635 #Well come on now, well it's time, 00:02:33.728 --> 00:02:36.618 #it's time to care for Earth
