Building Sources
The purpose of Sustainable Sources is to provide a solutions-based
environmental site. Many of us already recognize that there are
problems with our culture's present patterns of living, and don't
want to spend our time trying to directly stop other people from
being stupid. We feel that it is more effective to come up with
demonstrable solutions, and present them in such a way that they
are seen by the general public as rational, or even inevitable,
alternatives.
An excellent web offering by Bill Christensen.

Whole
Systems
"The essential new quality implied by the quantum theory is...
that a system cannot be analyzed into parts. This leads to the
radically new notion of unbroken wholeness of the entire universe.
You cannot take it apart. For if you do, what you end up with
is not contained within the original whole. It is created by the
act of analysis." - David Bohm -
