Humanity is the species that, for the first time in Earth’s history, has the chance not only to survive its own evolutionary crisis but to evolve beyond, to become something more. To do so, it learns how to steer its own evolution in the alignment with the planetary systems of Earth. The key to this process lie in the new forms of empowered collective action that invite every member of the human family into the transition.
