LIVING BEINGS MANIFESTO
Let's invent an organization perennial for the living beings !
Last update : 28/11/2023 => NEW : Short "printable book format" Manifesto Synthesis available
SEPTEMBER 2023 - CALL TO ACTION to support the search for solutions to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) launched by the UN (IPCC, COP) : in an open participative continuous improvement way, this Manifesto invites everyone to digest it, to share it, and to start workshops everywhere, in particular in all the universities and scientific labs of the world, in order to invent new modes of organization, "new rules of the game”, which ensure that the planet boundaries are not overshot each year… thus preserving the living perenniality on our planet on the long term!
​
There will be no magic: without collective work that extends on a global scale to invent a new organization and make it our own, there will be no major change of direction, the rules of the game of Monopoly which we inherited, structurally forcing us to produce more and more to guarantee, if possible, a strictly increasing salary at the end of the month.
​
The paradox is there and it is structural. Is the human species living to print tokens (money), exchange them, accumulate them on accounts ?
​
We are no longer like dinosaurs that would only go extinct with the next meteorite to strike Earth or with the sun inflation... let's go !
​
Do not hesitate to contact us through the Contact page if you want a presentation of the Manifesto to start off the research!
2020-2040 : Let's go for the transformation !
Make the topic yours
​
This work of transformation begins with in-depth personal work. We must read the analysis and the transformation proposals up to understand them, in order to be able to restore them, to challenge them, and to go further on. This site is built a bit like a Russian doll and you can gradually master it by level:
-
first feel comfortable with the content of the Presentation and Contact pages only (depth 0 level),
-
then all the depth 1 level pages (Living, Equality, Sustainability),
-
finally all the pages of the level below.
The Summary page and the extra short “printable book version” of this Manifesto can be ways to remember the overall demonstration:
Besides, it is good to dig into other theories, read the history of life on Earth, the history of the human species, our knowledege of the Universe and what we have already built in the nearby space... to realize how our human technical capacity is meaningful for the whole Living in its context in the Universe.
​
This work should enable us to individually transform our referential, our daily reflexes, and progressively during the next 10 to 20 years, to collectively transform our institutions.

​Let us invent new rules of the game...
​
​For those who would be most convinced and motivated by the analysis and proposals of this Manifesto, we must now start inventing new rules of the game with their counters and tools, that would enable the establishment of a stable and perennial organization, from the local to the global, for the whole living on Earth during the remaining billion years, and beyond in space...
​
​
A method to achieve this in the next 10 to 20 years could be the following (set of open proposals):
​
-
Create working groups in all the universities of the world which would propose to:
-
Analyze the inconsistencies and contradictions of our organization centered on our exchange tool (money),
-
Search and invent new rules of the game that would preserve the stability and sustainability of life on Earth and in space, while guaranteeing the minimum requirements of:
-
Action: rich and diversified for all throughout life,
-
Distribution: which covers everyone's needs and promotes everyone's action.
-
-
Open the work to everyone by publishing it online, popularizing it during regular public debate sessions, and by analyzing proposals from the whole population.
-
Follow up and summarize the work that each university would submit annually to its government.
-
Iterate each year on the basis of the feedback that the governments would offer them, gradually integrating the global vision.
-
-
Create working groups in all governments in charge of:
-
Analyze and summarize the work previously produced by all the universities in his country,
-
Propose a summary to the international organization in charge of preserving the future of life on Earth and in space.
-
Iterate each year (inconsistency, non-specific applicability to certain contexts) with the universities and the international organization in charge.
-
Change the rules of the game in place in his country accordingly, the popularization and learning of all being done mainly through the University.
-
-
Rename the United Nations (UN) into the United Living (UL) organization:
-
Three values, pillars: LIVING - EQUALITY - PERENNIALITY
-
One motto, one direction: Life won't stop
-
United Living Organization new responsibilities:
-
Iterate each year with the working groups of all governments to develop, update, make available to all The Universal Declaration of Living Beings Rights (including evolution and improvements of Human Rights).
-
Derive from these rights straight forward rules of the game allowing the stability and perenniality of life:
-
on Earth for the billion years remaining viable,
-
in space.
-
-
Determination of the main life perennialization development steps:
-
on Earth facing meteorites, hot eras and ice eras to come,
-
in Earth orbits,
-
in the Lunar orbits and on the Moon,
-
in Mars orbits and on Mars,
-
in the viable belt around the sun during the few billion years remaining viable, before the inflation of the sun leading to the end of our solar system,
-
...
-
towards the closest stars,
-
...
-
in our Galaxy before its meeting with Andromeda in 4 billion years,
-
...
-
and in the Universe.
-
-
-
​
These rules of the game must be simple, intuitive and so obvious that the majority of human beings actually see progress in them and adhere to them spontaneously without too many learning difficulties.
The Universal Participation notice proposes a first vision of what could be the structure of the organization, with its indicators and key information updated and made available to all annually, to guarantee the stability and perenniality of life on Earth and beyond :
If we work well, then we might wake up twenty years from now looking at a few tokens (money) lying around in the corner that have become obsolete, and wondering : What was that Monopoly game we all used to play? "Supply and demand law"? The value ? The capital gain ? The price ? Inflation? GDP? "Competitiveness" ? All these concepts as vague as all the demonstrations that we have been able to make...
Knowing how many we are and if we are able to produce enough food to feed everyone: this is a clear problem that we can pose and solve, as many others in our human organization !

To start right away ?
Very concretely in the immediate future, before having invented a new organization structurally perennial for the living beings, we could for example launch a global movement which would simply consist in everyone taking the initiative to limit our salaries:
-
all those who earn more than 5000 dollars per month would ask by themselves to see their salary gradually return to 5000 dollars until 2025,
-
all those who earn between 3000 dollars net and 5000 dollars per month would ask for their salary to be frozen,
-
all the unpaid surplus of these salaries would be donated to a global fund piloted by the UN (soon perhaps renamed in United Living Organisation - UL) and governments to help populations in difficulty and to build major global projects.
​
This measure would aim to achieve fairly quickly the necessary rebalancing of the rights and capacities of the human species on the planet in order to be able to better respect us all, and to respect the biosphere limits... which will not wait for us.

Eventually, if this work of transformation may seem too difficult for ourselves, questionning too many of our references, it should not be thought of as a transformation that we must achieve today for ourselves, but as a thorough work that we can achieve over the long term to guide our children and grandchildren of today so that they never experience unemployment nor need, on a planet where it is nice to live, while being ready to start the stairways to the stars...
