Hello! Since the 1980 humans clarified how to think systemically about the complex problem of sustinability. As Einstein suggested (paraphrased): "To solve a complex problem you cannot use the same type of thinking that created the problem". WE NEED A SHARED MENTAL MODEL -- a common compass. LEARN and APPLY the science-based, highest-order, non-negotiable system principles of the workings of an environmentally sustainable society: the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) (TNS based). Visit: http://thenaturalstep.org/en/the-system-conditions. In 2000 the American Planning Association used TNS before diligently issuing the APA Policy Guide on Planning for Sustainability (https://www.planning.org/policy/guides/adopted/sustainability.htm). AICP, APA's Professional Institute, is the entity that certifies professional planners all over the US (https://www.planning.org/aicp/). This fact -- equivalent to an available "fulcrum" for leverage -- is HUGE! APA adopted this policy guide in 2000 - already 15 years ago!!! Please adopt State-wide the APA Policy Guide on Planning for Sustainability! |
