A year ago we came to DailyKos with an idea for a liberal ThinkTank. We've been hard at work on the site: NewWays Thanks to a number of helpful people we've launched NewWays.
We wanted to come back and sharing our progress with you.
Dear Progressive Community Member,
Ever found yourself wondering how we tolerate outmoded and costly technologies that often do more harm than good?
What do we have to do to get rid of our dependencies on:
* oil and coal energy?
* pesticides use and genetically modified crops?
* overly packaged products and goods?
* our poor national healthcare system?
* 3000-mile food distribution practices?
* Inefficient usages of natural resources?............. We have too.
That is why we've created NewWays, a Community committed to facilitating social change through the cultivation of powerful new ideas.
Too many corporations and powerful leaders control the development and access to new products, processes, and ideas.
Our idea is simple: create a functional database of highly researched and developed products, practices and ideas, available for implementation into communities that is easily accessed by developers, entrepreneurs, and progressive organizations.
The world is a rapidly changing place. We believe that the power of the Internet can now address these outmoded technologies. The need and will for change is now in our hands. An uninhabited marketplace of IDEAS [Emphasis Added] in which truth will prevail," is in our hands.
We are asking you to join us in this endeavor.By taking on this endeavor, we provide a resource unprecedented in scope, offering local and global communities pragmatic new ways to address social equality, environmental sustainability, and conscious consumption towards a balanced ecology and economy.
Please take a minute right now.
