Film & Discussion Feb. 28: Complementary Currency

2/16/2013

11 Comments

 
Momentum is growing for launching a complementary currency system in Oahu. Join the early-stage discussion!
  • Thursday, Feb 28, 6-8 p.m.
  • 667 W Hind Dr., Honolulu, HI
    (a home in Aina Haina -- see map)
  • Potluck pupus

We will show a few selected short videos related to complementary currencies that describe LETS (local exchange trading systems), a paper currency called Ithaca HOURS, and a "transition" paper currency backed one-to-one by government-issue money.

We also plan to demo a LETS system online.

The videos are short so we have time to discuss options for Oahu and begin to chart next steps!

Here's the Table of Contents for the DVD we put together:

Monday, March 26, 7 p.m.
Bambu - the Venue, 1146 Bethel St, Honolulu (map)
$10 at the door / $5 for HPU students

The Crisis of Civilization is a documentary feature film investigating how global crises like ecological disaster, financial meltdown, dwindling oil reserves, terrorism and food shortages are converging symptoms of a single, failed global system.

Weaving together archival film footage and animations, film-maker Dean Puckett, animator Lucca Benney and international security analyst Dr. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed – author of A User’s Guide to the Crisis of Civilization: And How to Save It – offer a stunning wake-up call proving that ‘another world’ is not merely possible, but on its way.

Ultimately, The Crisis of Civilization is a film about ideas: ideas that have gotten us into this mess,and ideas that can get us out – if we want to.

Whidbey Island in Washington State is just over 1/4 the size of Oahu in area and much smaller in population. But this video on their Transition initiative has many ideas to offer as we implement transition here.
