But creating the new is especially doable when we have systemic, life-affirming alternatives readily available such as the relocalization process and reconnecting with nature through the discipline of applied ecopsychology. These both address root causes, can be shown to improve quality of life, and begin the transition to a sustainable future built on a foundation of ecological integrity, social justice, economic equity, and participatory democracy. Since these can all be shown to be emergent attributes of life's underlying network principle, they are inherent aspects of who we are, are within our innate power to implement, and there are processes we can use to successfully bring them to fruition.

It's time to just say no to empire, the economic system that supports it, and its voracious and deadly energy appetite.

"Rob Kall's book is amazing. He's created a real breakthrough, visionary how-to for a sustainable, quality future. Like Saul Alinski's Rules for Radicals, this book is destined to become a classic must-read for all those concerned with social, economic, and environmental justice in today's interconnected world. Story shapes the world and our world needs new stories if we are to survive and thrive. The story of the bottom-up evolution and revolution is one that can change individuals, groups, businesses, religions, and governments for the positive as it shows how bottom-up inclusiveness, connectedness, collaboration, empathy, innovation, and freeform creativity can help unleash the great potentials for good inherent in our very nature. If you want to improve things in your world and the world, first read this book, then apply the suggestions. Change is sure to come."

Pamela Jaye Smith, mythologist and author of InnerDrives, Power of the Dark Side, Symbols* Images* Codes* and award-winning writer-producer-director
