Dr. David Korten, author of Change the Story, Change the Future, and When Corporations Rule the World, addresses how we must change the stories we tell, and how doing so can be instrumental in changing the future. While the still dominate story of the virtues of the market prevail, the new story must revolve around the Earth Community, of which we are a part but not dominating element. Our health is dependent on the Earth's health; there is no life without community; human nature calls us to serve all, not just our individual selves; and the only justification of any institute of government, business or civil society is the support it can give to a vibrate, productive and prosperous living Earth community.
