vue - The Choice is Ours (2016) Official Full Version
https://www.thevenusproject.com/ Intro: 0:00 Part 1 6:16 Part 2 23:28 Part 3 47:03 Part 4 1:19:09 Produced/Directed by Roxanne Meadows and Joel Holt Script by Roxanne Meadows Editor Joel Holt, assisted by Roxanne Meadows & Nathaniel Dinwiddie Original Score by Kat Apple This film series explores many aspects of our society. To rethink what is possible in our world, we need to consider what kind of world we want to live in. Although we refer to it as civilization, it is anything but civilized. Visions of global unity & fellowship have long inspired humanity, yet the social arrangements up to the present have largely failed to produce a peaceful and productive world. While we appear to be technically advanced, our values and behaviors are not. The possibility of an optimistic future is in stark contrast to our current social, economic, and environmental dilemmas. The Choice Is Ours includes interviews with notable scientists, media professionals, authors, and other thinkers exploring the difficulties we face. Part I provides an introduction and overview of cultural & environmental conditions that are untenable for a sustainable world civilization. It explores the determinants of behavior to dispel the myth of “human nature”, while demonstrating how environment shapes behavior. The science of behavior is an important - yet largely missing - ingredient in our culture. Part II questions the values, behaviors, and consequences of our social structures, and illustrates how our global monetary system is obsolete and increasingly insufficient to meet the needs of most people. Critical consideration of the banking, media, and criminal justice systems reveals these institutions for what they really are: tools of social control managed by the established political and economic elite. If we stay the present course, the familiar cycles of crime, economic booms & busts, war, and further environmental destruction are inevitable. Part III explains the methods and potential of science. It proposes solutions that we can apply at present to eliminate the use of non-renewable sources of energy. It depicts the vision of The Venus Project to build an entirely new world from the ground up: a “redesign of the culture”, where all enjoy a high standard of living, free of servitude and debt, while also protecting the environment. Part IV explains how it is not just architecture and a social structure that is in desperate need of change, but our values which have been handed down from centuries ago. They too need to be updated to our technological age, which has the potential to eliminate our scarcity-driven societies of today. Our problems are mostly of our own making, but we can still turn things around before the point of no return. It’s not too late for an optimistic outlook on the fantastic possibilities that lie before us. Jacque Fresco-Futurist, Industrial Designer, Social Engineer, Founder of The Venus Project Jeffery A.

Paul Hewitt - Author "Conceptual Physics" Roxanne Meadows - Co-Founder The Venus Project *special thanks also to Alexander "Obraz" ...Obraz.io who created the many 2d motion depictions (plus the sound fx!) of concepts such as the "hamburgers and fried chicken" segment and many others which are Alexander's inimitable work style and atteniton to details where we needed very specific illustrations of key points. The Venus Project proposes an alternative vision of what the future can be if we apply what we already know in order to achieve a sustainable new world civilization. It calls for a straightforward redesign of our culture in which the age-old inadequacies of war, poverty, hunger, debt and unnecessary human suffering are viewed not only as avoidable, but as totally unacceptable. Anything less will result in a continuation of the same catalog of problems inherent in today's world. Learn more at www.thevenusproject.com

The problem is people still go to war and fight other people. There will never be peace or utopian, sadly. :(

The choice is truly ours.
The only "things" we, as a race of intelligent sentient beings, truly need to exist together in peace, unity & with the true freedom & liberty that we all righteously deserve, ...
is each other, our home Earth in it's entirety, & the one & only universal law called "Love".
It's really not very difficult, ... we just have to completely forsake this great deception that we need government, & that we need money, ... & actually utilize the intelligence & the compassion of love that already exists within us all, & just go from there.
Though it will be extremely difficult at first during our 'transition & adjustment' period,
but the "objective" will be as simple as placing one leg & foot in front of the other in order to walk.
Jacque Fresco is indeed a true messenger of "truth". -
Living before your time sucks.

wow this is a real eye opener for years i have asked myself is this how life is ful of war and hunger. I hope this project will become a reality for the people in the future. Humans need to live peacefull next to each other no matter what race.
-
The profile picture of the movie made me shiver. It entails invading the last spit of nature we have. It is unrealistic, there are too many people on Earth to create such dissipated communities. Using Earth's resources, they have already been used up to near exhaustion. This project is futuristic interms of architecture, but not practical
-
In the end, humans will be humans. Even a well planned future will be foiled by future generations. Maybe humans are better off dead.

I am so happy to hear there is a vision..
.but...
I dont trust machine on a level for general decision making.
What if technology automated decision making proces make some negative connotations, like...human are unnecessary I as a machine can do all by myself ...logically , humans are disturbance for progress ...delete them. -
finally some of those "demoncractics" woke up to ask question are we in real democracy?

this should have 7.6 billion views

load of bollocks more lies

the corporate, the Rockefeller's , the Rothchild's , the J.P Morgan's , rich families , Politician. Steal Everything !!!!

A direction such as this is a must! If we want to live not 1-4 hundred more years, but 100s of thousands of years into the future we must adapt something such as this.
No way do we make it far without gravitating towards a better connected, informed, and empathetic global society. What we have currently built is seriously a joke. -
1:32:48 The Professor claims the universe has no provable purpose but i would disagree. Is not nature and the universe striving for constant perfection? It tries lots of idea's (variations) and the good ones rise to the top. Just like any organism. Evolution is not just limited to our tiny planet. Stars evolve. Galaxies evolve. Everything in this reality is constantly trying to reach perfection.

How is the monetary system, or rather lack thereof different from Communism?

Universal Basic Income
Adler-Karlsson set out a vision of a three-layered society: the necessity economy, the capitalistic economy and the free economy. The vision included a “life income” or “citizen’s wage”, but everybody was supposed to take part in the necessity economy. The year was 1977.
Several texts were momentous at the start of my BI journey, even though they did not always fit a strict definition of an unconditional basic income.
The first text was a pamphlet written by my acquaintance Gunnar Adler-Karlsson. In Danish it was called “No to Full Employment”, but it was not published in Swedish until renamed as “Thoughts on Full Employment”.

I've been waiting to see this my entire life.

One final thing, as I haven't seen it here yet, have any of you heard of the Ubuntu Project? it is very similar to this idea, except lays out a smaller step by step (supposed to be easier to digest) movement from one to the other. personally I believe we need a medium between that and a full switch. yes, we definitely need to be scared and wake up to the fact that we need to do something right now, and that will for sure cause some more violence at first, people are scared, but the leap can't be too large at first, or all out chaos might break out.

also one small issue @30:00 youtube is part of that whole thing right? if so, how have you slipped past the barriers and not been taken down, if you are truly against the system? or is youtube somehow still more free than i think it is?
