Greetings Steemit community,

We at The Venus Project are pleased to be joining this innovative social space and group of people. With a growing subscriber base of more than 300,000 on our social media pages, we wish to utilize a platform such as Steemit for further community-building and engagement.

In this post we would like to start with a brief introduction, and over time we will gradually provide the community with more information about the social direction we propose.

The Venus Project seeks to solve the world’s major problems of poverty, disease, suffering, environmental pollution, war, lack of access to education, and many others, by initiating the transition to a new socio-economic system called a Resource Based Economy.

To test how well the proposed new system will work, The Venus Project works towards the realization of an experimental city. The city will be a hub for research in science and technology, to work on solutions for the global problems faced by all human beings. The city’s population will also be working on a second city, and then on more to come, until all people can be housed and live in this very different kind of environment that the new cities will provide.

With the proposed new system, Resource Based Economy, also come a new way of thinking and values. We will be presenting them to you here, through writings, images, lectures, interviews, documentaries, and any other means of spreading new ideas.

We welcome your participation.
