To rethink what is possible in our world, we need to consider what kind of world we want to live in. Although we refer to it as civilization, it is anything but civilized. Visions of global unity & fellowship have long inspired humanity, yet the social arrangements up to the present have largely failed to produce a peaceful and productive world. While we appear to be technically advanced, our values and behaviors are not. The possibility of an optimistic future is in stark contrast to our current social, economic, and environmental dilemmas. The Choice Is Ours includes interviews with notable scientists, media professionals, authors, and other thinkers exploring the difficulties we face. Part I provides an introduction and overview of cultural & environmental conditions that are untenable for a sustainable world civilization. It explores the determinants of behavior to dispel the myth of “human nature”, while demonstrating how environment shapes behavior. The science of behavior is an important - yet largely missing - ingredient in our culture. Part II questions the values, behaviors, and consequences of our social structures, and illustrates how our global monetary system is obsolete and increasingly insufficient to meet the needs of most people. Critical consideration of the banking, media, and criminal justice systems reveals these institutions for what they really are: tools of social control managed by the established political and economic elite. If we stay the present course, the familiar cycles of crime, economic booms & busts, war, and further environmental destruction are inevitable. Part III explains the methods and potential of science. It proposes solutions that we can apply at present to eliminate the use of non-renewable sources of energy. It depicts the vision of The Venus Project to build an entirely new world from the ground up: a “redesign of the culture”, where all enjoy a high standard of living, free of servitude and debt, while also protecting the environment. Part IV explains how it is not just architecture and a social structure that is in desperate need of change, but our values which have been handed down from centuries ago. They too need to be updated to our technological age, which has the potential to eliminate our scarcity-driven societies of today. Our problems are mostly of our own making, but we can still turn things around before the point of no return. It’s not too late for an optimistic outlook on the fantastic possibilities that lie before us. Jacque Fresco-Futurist, Industrial Designer, Social Engineer, Founder of The Venus Project Jeffery A.

Paul Hewitt - Author "Conceptual Physics" Roxanne Meadows - Co-Founder The Venus Project *special thanks also to Alexander "Obraz" ...Obraz.io who created the many 2d motion depictions (plus the sound fx!) of concepts such as the "hamburgers and fried chicken" segment and many others which are Alexander's inimitable work style and atteniton to details where we needed very specific illustrations of key points. The Venus Project proposes an alternative vision of what the future 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 inadequacies 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 inherent in today's world. Learn more at www.thevenusproject.com

Humanity is just going to use up everything and potentially be extinct in the next 1500 years. Running up to that extinction most other species will be extinct first. Potentially a third world war over the diminishing resorces will result in nuclear weapons being used causing a nuclear fallout which blocks out the sun causing most plant life to die. Radiation will cause what life is left to be incapable of reproducing and that will be that. On a positive note though some deep sea life forms and microbes above sea will survive and have the chance to develope into a better bunch of intelligent species in the next millenium.

What about security?

Well where does that money from the fines go? Against back to its source.
-
there will be no love anymore in the future and consciousness is nonsense because we don't know everything? what a sad way of seeing life!!! so depressive. a typical scientific way of explaining the world. Good luck with your project...
-
yes please!

Maybe Mr. Huxley can answer your question.....but it is only 1 in a infinite number of possibilities. The proyect is possible ..we just need to connect intimately with our (real nature,mysticism,inner self,god,bodhi dharma,chi...& such) to understand the whole (reality,cosmos,existence[including us and all the questions we have]) and finally get the knowledge ( science & technology) to uses our resources in an efficient way . So the path to get that connection is by the practice of meditation and all its forms..(I mean not in a religious senses) & the support of a good structured orientation's an devotion's frame for each human been...so they can live happy and with a mission of life..

WOW
Highly recommend this Documentary
Its a MUST WATCH
Very Educational and alarming -
We need an alien attack or something to make us come together
-
I'd live there.
-
If we build houses underground and leave the surface to trees, plants and animals we will have more oxygen and food.
If we use more clean energy sources we will not pollute our planet.
If we embrace what we are and respect every human regardless of his color or origin we will never have war.
To evolve we need to work with the nature that created us and together to create a better future. -
Where do i find one of the new city ?

The Venus Project is a good idea but it is laced with behaviorist dogma which traces back to Skinner in the 19th century and has been out of date for decades. You talk about how all human behavior is rooted in environment and then talk about prison systems. Do you want to explain how various genotypes are highly associated with violent criminality and thus turn up more among prisoners. What about double Y or the MAO gene?
It's always genes AND behavior. Take the MAO gene. The gene alone does have an effect if present but the effect is greatly enhanced if there is a history of child abuse. Genes and behavior. Not just the one convenient for your ideology. Nature does not deal in black and whites and thus neither can science nor a scientific society such as the one you propose. -
For Zoe Bee: for the biginning- just show this film to Your serrounding...

This is a very important Life-Affirming and Life-Supporting film.

I really hate people who in the middle of a sentence

Jacque, you remind me of a student and friend of mine, Joshua D Hewitt.
Ever since i knew him as a child, he has advocated for such ideals. I
remember when he was nine years old, i helped him send a letter to the
government with a design, this letter was to petition the Canadian
government to adopt and develop the idea for a garbage refinery. The
refinery as described by Joshua was, "to use the hydrolysis of the
acids, to further break down the base structure of debris and extracting
various elements and compounds such as methane. The spherical structure
was to maximize space and energy efficiency as well as the ability to
be mobile or to be re-located. He has gone on as a young man to study
the behavior of people, getting in their shoes, groups and even spending
time sleeping on our streets in poverty for the sake of humanity. The
ideals coming from this individual have grown into a vision that is
adaptable and real to many of us who have had the pleasure to know him
and witness the good deeds done in example. I think he is an individual
who could contribute a lot to the Venus Project and to learn a thing or
two from your diverse pool of knowledge. I have watched as he faces down
opposition and looks to the future of humanity with hope even though
many believe our destruction is upon us, this to me is inspiring to see
from our youth and i would like to see more of this truly #universal
movement. PS: here is Joshua's Facebook in case your works may
compliment one another https://www.facebook.com/JoshuaDonaldHewitt . -
if anyone watches this and comes to the conclusion that this is not the way forward for humanity ,then look into the mirror and the person looking back at you is greedy,unamaginitave, selfish,and unintelligent.

Choice is illusion...

660 dislikes and all your crazy comments calling this communism and comparing fresco to Hitler. haha. I sleep well at night knowing the future is hopeless, and you're all going to die anyways. have fun killing yourself when the answer is right in front of your stupid face. Just stop telling me you care about your children and their future right before you go to your useless job that destroys the planet in the name of a useless economy. This is the only answer and the only way forward if humans ever want to see any peace at all.
