       We are getting pretty good at seeing the signals of climate change (maps, graphs, satellites images, stories from people on the ground). What about the signals of a life-sustaining society emerging? What would you look for, in the midst of the noise, the challenges, the collapses, and the crises? Would you know it when you saw it?

       @bethsawin People feeling empowered to pursue their gift; their calling.  And to change direction as they gained new insight.Rather than merely selling their time in order to be allowed to exist.

       @bethsawin Happy people. Homes and apartment buildings that look lived in. People living and working in the same neighborhood. No one sleeping rough or going hungry. Kids and teens who have enough time to goof off. Free clinics, free pharmacies, free grocery stores. Green things growing, awareness of ecology built into public architecture. Ultralight domes rising over residential areas to protect them from wildfire smoke, and over industrial areas to filter their pollution.

       @bethsawin >We are getting pretty good at seeing the signals of climate changeThat's pretty easy when everything from the magnetic field reversing to stale Twinkies at the grocer are blamed on global warmi-, oh, I mean "Climate Change".  You literally changed the label so that you could find old scratch under any rock you looked under.
