This is an Encore presentation to commemorate the life of Jacque Fresco
| 1916 - 2017
Today, much of the technology needed to bring about a global Resource-Based Economy exists. If we choose to conform to the limitations of our present monetary-based economy, then it is likely that we will continue to live with its inevitable results: war, poverty, hunger, deprivation, crime, ignorance, stress, fear, and inequity. On the other hand, if we embrace the concept of a global resource-based economy , learn more about it, and share our understanding with our friends, this will help humanity evolve out of its present state. For this and an in depth look into The Venus Project, Jacque Fresco and Roxanne Meadows are this episode's guests.

�ƒ¢â�€š¬�…�€œThe Venus Project�ƒ¢â�€š¬�‚ was started in the mid-1970s by social engineer, industrial designer, futurist and inventor Jacque Fresco and his partner, Roxanne Meadows. The Venus Project is an organization that proposes a feasible plan of action for social change; one that works toward a peaceful and sustainable global civilization. It outlines an alternative to strive toward where human rights are not only paper proclamations but also a way of life. The Venus Project presents a vision not of what the future will be, but what it can be if we apply what we already know in order to achieve a sustainable new world civilization. It calls for a straightforward redesign of our culture in which the age-old problems of war, poverty, hunger, debt, and unnecessary human suffering are viewed not only as avoidable, but as totally unacceptable. Anything less will result in a continuation of the same catalog of problems found in today's world. The Venus project has been highlighted in the film �ƒ¢â�€š¬�…�€œZeitgeist Addendum�ƒ¢â�€š¬�‚ and the third sequel �ƒ¢â�€š¬�…�€œZeitgeist Movement�ƒ¢â�€š¬�‚ have attracted millions of people worldwide.
