We are Nature.
Natural Law is Nature observing Nature
Natural Law is a system of objective, universal principles unrelated to culture or religion which govern all life, and imply an ethical foundation derived from nature or reason.
As we face the threat of a socio-economic and ecological collapse, we can turn to Natural Law as a timeless framework that can be applied to ethics, regenerative solutions and an overall blueprint for survival and a thriving future on our planet.
The first step: acknowledging that we are not separate. We are Nature.
Our resources span the following areas, exploring innovative developments, emerging research and ancient wisdom.
Earth Regeneration
Shifting from the illusion of separateness towards the awareness of Natural Law reminds us that we are part of the greater whole, the Earth community. With this understanding, ecological restoration of Earth is prioritized, paving the way for natural regeneration across all living systems.
Social Restoration
Reseeding the ancient wisdom of interconnectedness and interdependence to reestablish equality, sovereignty and the rights of Nature. Accountability, truth, and reconciliation are foundational tenets of healing on our journey towards social unity.
New Economies
Transitioning towards economic models that prioritize shared abundance and environmental sustainability. Divesting from centralized systems to redistribute power and resources. Adopting circular economies, inspired by nature, to redefine production and consumption, minimizing waste.
Evolved Governance
Redefining our organizational structures and legal systems to shift towards more Earth-centered and locally derived governance models. Designing resilient and regenerative communities and municipalities for the benefit of all.
