A crash course in changing the world.
Now it´s time to build a Global Network of Community Urban Farms that will bring Water Food
and Energy FOR EVERYONE IN THIS PLANET.
We can start with the biggest cities in the World.

This cities have a great cultural influence over their own countries, their regions and the World. With only 14 farms we can impact a little bit more than 9% of the World Population. Other culturally can be included too. In the long term the plan is to have a Community Urban Farm on every block in every City in the World. It may take decades, but we can do it all through incremental steps.
At the beginning this Global Network of Community Urban Farms will resemble more a decentralized network, but with more farms it will eventually will resemble a Distributed Network.
Health and Education
To a certain degree Health and Education can also be part of this Global Network of Community Urban Farms, especially in places where Health and Education infrastructure is not enough. The health can focus on preventive medicine and first aid. Education should also be part of the project. Teaching science with what is grown and built in this Global Network of Community Urban Farms is a unique opportunity to make science fun and real. The Arts and sports can become part of the community live. A place for old and young to learn from each other and create community a global community that feels local.
Empowering Woman
Watch this video: http://www.girleffect.org/ It´s clear to me that if Women are the Facilitators of this Community Urban Farms they will do a far better job than we men do. It´s not about reverse discrimination it´s science proving they are better Community Builders.
Questions
I have some questions for you:
Could we integrate other projects and combine it with this System of Distributed Networks? What about Human Rights? Money or any substitute of it? Any ideas? I´ve seen some great ideas in Evoke and I would love to incorporate them and mix them . . . share with us your ideas!!!
The name Global Network of Community Urban Farms is descriptive but too long maybe? I am thinking
GLOCAL FARMS or GLOCAL URBAN FARMS sounds better . . . Can you think of a cool name?
How can we integrate play into it? If we are gonna change the World it should be a Fun World.
