Strategies to transform towards a sustainable planet

1. Opposition: Campaigns against land grabs campaigns against subsidies towards coal and nuclear power plants, campaigns against global trade agreements. Campaigns can also bring awareness in people that there is something wrong in the current existing system, like: planned obselence (eg: mobiles). It also provokes thought's on the common people about the threat to human civilizations.                                                                           
2. Alternatives:  Establish sustainable practices like: urban/community (organic) gardening, waste management to produce local energy and manure, car sharing, repair café’s, time banks and alternative local currency. These alternatives are essential to show the other memebers of the community that we can live in a more sustainable and also build local relations within communities. The alternatives are also important while carrying out the campaigns against modern industrial systems and also they give stregth and support to have a political diaolge.
3. Reformism: utilize the existing capitalist structures like: renewable energies, transportation and communication to establish resilient local societies with a global view. Utilize the existing democratic structure and banking system (To establish not for profit banks whose core focus is on community development, rather then investments in oil extraction)
