The following series of tweets was sent out on January 3,2014 (4:45pm), as part of outreach for Tipping Point Action: Citizen Participation in Times of Unprecedented Challenges.
Two comments and two questions:
1) There are 14 different series of tweets being used for Tipping Point Action outreach. This particular series focused on ways to maximize employment in times of unprecedented change.
2) Currently, tweets about sharing the 5 page introduction to the Tipping Point Action Campaign are being directed to groups in the Transition Movement; groups in the University/College Divestment Movement; people and organizations associated with Permaculture; and Green Party organizations (in the United States, and worldwide).
Question: Any suggestions for people to send tweets to, as a way of introducing them to the Tipping Point Action Campaign?
Question: The other 13 series of tweets also include many tweets--to share information from the document "Invitation Package for Possible Board of Advisors (at cpcsc.info)" (a key source of evidence relating to challenges and solutions). Any suggestions for tweet series which might be more helpful or useful to readers?
Here is the series of tweets:
The Community Peacebuilding and Cultural Sustainability (CPCS) Initiative is issuing a Planetary Distress Signal.
We are at a critical point in the evolution of life on Planet Earth.We are now at a time when we need to examine our options very carefully.
“World is on the brink of ‘largest bubble ever’ in finance, because of undisclosed value of high-carbon assets on companies' balance sheets”
Bond markets shielded from effects of climatechange, ecosystem degradation, water scarcity?/$40 trillion of sovereign debt in global markets
We are in unprecedented times, w/ multi-dimensional challenges which require problem solving on a scale most of us have never known before.
“A List of Ten Critical Challenges” (1 page)/condensation of evidence from many documents cpcsc.info/planetary-distress-signal-campaign/
Key doc for evidence of challenges, solutions/“Invitation Package for Possible Board of Advisors (at www.cpcsc.info )(589 pages; 3.65 MB).
“Invitation Package”/Many ways for maximizing employment during unprecedented transition ahead, including the following examples…
1) Responses (from the 150 key leaders surveyed before the visioning process) will raise employment outlooks in specific fields of activity
2) Community Visioning Initiatives/Step 12--Summary Presentations and Job Fairs (from “15 Step Outline” at cpcsc.info/1000cvi-campaign/
3) Job fairs at end of visioning/opportunities for key stakeholders to demonstrate new awareness, create new employment opportunities…
People not sufficiently informed about critical issues are everywhere--and investing their time, energy, and money—voting—all the time
Tipping Point Action—more emphasis on how people “vote” with their time, energy, and money, and less emphasis on electoral process “voting”
4) “Creating millions of new green jobs thru targeted investment will require massive job training” (Worldwatch) bit.ly/kAqR28
5) Community Visioning Initiatives/highly prioritized investment can close gaps on the challenges—solutions—training—employment sequence
6) Critical Challenges ahead/Surely, there is work to do/Community Visioning Initiatives goal=Many hands make much work light.
7) Community Visioning Initiative and Neighborhood Learning Center Clearinghouses will make best use of learning experiences worldwide…
Another way maximizing employment: people assisting w/ community visioning initiatives—and resulting action plans—can earn local currency
Berkshares—Launched in 2006/over 2.7 million in circulation/”more than four hundred businesses have signed up to accept the currency.”
Local crowdfunding/local community supported shareholder options can help pieces of the Tipping Point Action Campaign come alive.
CPCS Initiative issuing Planetary Distress Signal: We are now at a time when we need to examine our options very carefully.
Community Visioning Initiatives = maximizing citizen participation in examining critical issues, exploring solutions options very carefully.
