The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community

4

David Korten’s inspiring and extensively illustrated presentation of his book The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community. David says we are at a defining moment in all of human history.

“Will future generations know our time …[as] the Great Unraveling, when profligate consumption exceeded Earth’s capacity … and led to an accelerating wave of collapsing environmental systems, violent competition for… resources, and a dramatic die-back of the human population?”

“Or will they look back … on the time of the Great Turning, when their forebears … turned crisis into opportunity, and learned to live in creative partnership with one another and Earth?”

Hi there.

I bet you've seen some great "films for action" that aren't in our library yet. 

Why not add that documentary or video directly to our library? Half of our best content was added by members. Submissions just need to be non-fiction, embeddable (like from Youtube or Vimeo), and related to activism or changing the world in some way. 

Here are some more tips on adding videos. We'd love you to become a regular contributor! 

Cheers,
The Films For Action team
