Abstract

This chapter provides a template for creating a context for the preservation of humankind on this planet, Earth. This quest begins with ascertaining the prevailing human consciousness of the planet and the subsequent critical transformation from a survival-mentality to begin steering a course to human compatibility. This process begins with recapturing a consciousness of caring for the well-being of each other—a diverse, multicultural, global population of human differences. The alternative appears to be our conscious collapse and the extinction of humankind. This is the point where we find ourselves in the first part of the twenty-first century. If we have the courage to go beyond self-annihilation, we can begin steering a course to compatibility and human preservation.
