MSRB EcoPreneur Program is posted for reference. Email Admin for details of NEW program: Disaster Rescue Operation
Important Notice 
Unless the global energy consumption is reduced rapidly—by no later than June 2006—to about 60 exajoules (6E+19 joules), or less, each year (this level is about 12.4 percent of total global energy consumed in 2005) our studies show that the runaway positive feedback loops that are destroying Earth's ecosystems (ozone holes, global heating, extreme climatic events, toxic pollution, resources depletion, war, unethical behavior, and disease pandemics) would reach "the point of no return" and overwhelm our life support systems rendering most of our cities uninhabitable by as early as 2015, possibly earlier.  

Failure to rein back the global energy consumption to the levels below 60 exajoules annually by June 2006 would render the concept of sustainable management redundant (it seems highly unlikely that post industrial civilization would voluntarily sacrifice its perceived privileges and values in favor of sustaining life on Earth - see Stop Burning Earth). MSRB is replacing its current program with a disaster rescue operation. 

Our Mission
To build bridges to the future.  
        

Our Goal 
Preserving the dying ecosystem enabling human intelligence to continue evolving.

EcoPreneur Program Concentration Areas
The EcoPreneur restorative management program offers a comprehensive choice of concentration areas:
        
[You can also select other concentration areas and design own program]
 

MNG01 EcoPreneur Starter  Unlearning and relearning; improving personal and social skills; enhancing your natural learning aptitude; identifying true priorities, setting new goals; managing your time and life successfully.
CSM01 Seeing the Big Picture Cosmologists believe the universe is 13.7 billion years old; in fact, there may be multiple universes not just one. Where do you stand in relation to the rest of the awesome cosmos? Tapping into the integrity governing the cosmos: How to design your value system to realize your place in the Big Picture. 
SGC01 Understanding the Social and Global Crisis  What are the sources of human conflict and misery? Why is the post-industrial civilization destroying the fabric of life on Earth? Why competition instead of cooperation. Whose interest does it serve? Global Warming [Heating] is merely a symptom of the industrialization, the disease needs urgent attention. 
RSM01 Restorative Management Human race faces a major environmental catastrophe soon. The ecosystems vital for supporting life are in danger of collapsing. How do we change our policies and practices to prevent total collapse, where do we start?
CMU01 Building Sustainable Communities What's a small local community? Why you need them? How to plan and build a community, how to build a community of communities. Security and "governance" in small communities and social organizations. 
FIN01 Voluntary Simplicity & Financial Independence Simplicity is about living within natural limits, sustainable boundaries set by the ecosystem; simplicity is not about poverty. Discovering a true value system and opting for a fulfilling lifestyle enhanced by financial independence. Individual needs and ecological sustainability: Every human being alive or yet to be born has a right to an equal share of space and resources on this planet.
NGY01 Generating Renewable Energy Why renewable energy? Humans use about 150 times more energy now than in the pre-industrial times. In 2006 we consumed 481 exajoules of energy (equivalent to the energy released by about 8 million Hiroshima bombs). This level of energy consumption is unsustainable. Analyzing the ecological perspective (global heating, the accumulated toxic inventory); the social perspective (competition, war); the economic perspective (Peak Oil, end of cheap oil economy); Technological perspective (the limitations of technology).
EEC01 Ecological Economy The economy is a subsystem of the ecosystem. The ecosystem is not growing. The economy, therefore, cannot grow bigger than the ecosystem, but it is. The economy has become an enemy of life destroying both the human community and the ecosystem. How to change it to a friend by imposing sustainable limits as a boundary on the market economy.  
RCY01 Recycling and Resource Management Eliminating waste. Employing zero-waste production methods based on nature's economy. Creating an intelligent macro-plan for sustainable management of Earth's precious natural resources.
AGR01 Agroecology and Food Production Humanity is one harvest away from starvation. Ironically, about 40 percent of the world’s grain is fed to livestock. Designing a food policy that is less dependant on animals. Growing crops for direct human consumption.  
EDU01 Managing Education Adopting the concept of life-long learning and learning for life.  Mapping new learning models and enhancing natural skills. Managing education and making learning fun and an integral part of intelligent living for all ages.
ARC01 Eco-Architecture, Low Energy Technologies Planning and building within  the principles of ecological design. Adopting the synergetic rules employed by Evolution. Integrated designs: Site and synergy, flux optimization, thermal comfort, low energy, low cost. Changes needed in lifestyle and design. 
PPF01 Post-Petroleum Future Peak Oil and the society: ending human addiction to oil. How would the end of cheap oil affect the food production, transportation, manufacturing, entertainment... How will it affect your lifestyle? How to Create a sustainable energy policy based on renewable sources.
