  • Stan Aizin was born in the Republic of Moldova in 1978.

  • He graduated from Moldova State University in 2000 with specialization in law.

  • He emigrated to the United States in 2007.

  • At this time, he is pursuing a nursing degree at IRSC.

  • He has been a volunteer for The Venus Project since 2011.

  • So I would like to talk about transitional period

  • and steps we need to take to create conditions

  • for implementation of the resource-based economy.

  • As you can see from our presentations, The Venus Project includes

  • detailed approach to a variety of topics

  • on behavioral modification, system thinking and social design,

  • which is impossible to thoroughly describe in the limited amount of time.

  • So please keep in mind,

  • that this is just an outline for one of many possible scenarios.

  • We must emphasize, that it is not possible to achieve social nucleation

  • and demilitarization, or ANY major changes overnight.

  • But we are certain that our direction will demonstrate feasibility of our proposals,

  • that it is indeed possible to create [a] new society

  • without forced redistribution of wealth and resources.

  • It is much easier and vastly more productive

  • to maintain society by providing access to the necessities of life

  • instead of inventing new legislations, and new ways to wage war,

  • in order to govern human behavior.

  • We don’t need a political system.

  • We need a system of abundance with free access

  • to all that people need to live prosperously and be creative.

  • Human and animal rights, environmental protection,

  • safety and security must be [an] essential part of total social design.

  • The transition to better and saner society, to better global civilization,

  • can only be achieved by evolution, not by force.

  • By producing solutions,

  • which will demonstrate that greater personal and national security goals

  • can be achieved without use of military force,

  • we will create enough pressure

  • to initiate transition from fictitious economies of boom and bust

  • to sustainable and flexible processes based on dynamic equilibrium.

  • In other words,

  • we must make this system subside under [the] weight of its own insufficiencies.

  • At present, it seems that we are unable to achieve any real progress.

  • No matter what aspiration and progressive ideas some individuals might have,

  • most of the people cling to [a] habitually comforting way of thinking

  • that failed to produce long-term solutions humanity required to evolve.

  • What we need is an alternative vision,

  • alternative goals, and alternative environment

  • to induce and solidify individual and social change.

  • The Venus Project can provide all of these alternatives

  • and we are ready to lead civilization into a new era of human evolution.

  • Our goal is to take every step possible

  • to make transition to [a] resource-based economy

  • with minimum amount of social oscillations

  • that means, without deprivation, hunger, war, suspension of human rights,

  • and international conflicts.

  • Right now we're working to present The Venus Project direction

  • to [the] international community.

  • We have many groups and individual volunteers around the world

  • who [are] helping us with these tasks.

  • Our message is very well received across the cultures.

  • We are certain that millions in many countries [are] aware of our direction,

  • and many will [be] joining us soon as we start implementation

  • of the next phase of The Venus Project.

  • So our next step, is to showcase our optimistic vision,

  • allowing people to experience new concepts of the future firsthand.

  • This can be achieved by realization of the first experimental city system,

  • which in many varieties of design are conceptualized in our presentations.

  • This city can be built in any country with sufficient infrastructure

  • in energy production, construction processes,

  • and relatively stable economic and political climate.

  • The Venus Project will provide blueprints, designs,

  • and guidance for specialists involved.

  • Our innovative systemic approach to the construction processes

  • will allow us to build [the] city relatively fast,

  • with minimum resource waste,

  • in the same time achieving high quality of the end product.

  • The city project [is] designed in the way that even in its initial stage,

  • it can be fully functional as a research and educational center,

  • greatly improving the region of its location

  • by sharing technologies and organization processes

  • with [the] local population.

  • When fully developed, [the] city [is] going to demonstrate

  • what our future can be, when we implement [a] resource-based economy.

  • It’s going to be fully sustainable,

  • practically pollution-free system, with its own energy and food production,

  • transportation and other services available,

  • available without use of money within the city.

  • [A] new environment of social and personal organization

  • will induce change in values ... of city inhabitants,

  • providing behavioral modification needed to create [a] society of the future.

  • The main goal at this stage of operation

  • is creation of the international network of educational

  • and research centers, without vested interest in [the] monetary system.

  • Research projects [are] going to be focused on development of fully automated

  • mining-to-product-to-recycling systems,

  • creation [and] advancement of behavioral technology and behavioral science,

  • social and economical studies,

  • social cybernetization,

  • and integrated renewable energy systems,

  • along with other areas that allow us to create [an] economy of abundance.

  • Any country will greatly benefit from investment

  • in the new city systems designed by The Venus Project.

  • They will spur growth of the new class of socially integrated industries,

  • attracting [a] variety of specialists in sustainable technologies,

  • social entrepreneurs, artists and tourists from all around the world,

  • in the same time increasing energy production,

  • energy independence, [and] social stability, as well as lessen

  • regional budget demands.

  • Our approach can be easily scalable to include multiple regions

  • and even whole countries, in order to create large-scale sustainable systems.

  • Specialists will work with local governments to advance and streamline processes

  • initiated by [the] network of experimental cities,

  • applying best of our findings to improve quality of life of every citizen

  • of the host country, without involvement into [the] local political process.

  • It is very important,

  • that [a] major portion of the funding for the first experimental cities

  • will be provided by [the] general public,

  • not by corporations or other profit-seeking entities.

  • That way, nobody could buy its way into the city,

  • and we can keep it clean

  • from self-centered ideations imposed by [the] monetary system.

  • We are aiming to build experimental cities in every sufficiently developed country

  • around the world, in order to get them involved in sustainable operations

  • as soon as possible.

  • This network of cities will serve as a scaffold of new global society to come.

  • In the next phase of our development,

  • we would extend invitation to other countries to ... participate

  • into The Venus Project International

  • a joint venture that will create [a] highly technological society

  • on the neutral territory.

  • One of the major conditions will be proportional investment of the resources

  • and agreement between participants

  • to make The Venus Project International

  • immune to all political decisions of the current system.

  • New technological society

  • will be comprised of multidisciplinarians and technicians,

  • working to research solutions to the common problems of humankind.

  • The general policies of that society will be military and political neutrality,

  • studies toward elimination of scarcity,

  • improvement of [the] human condition,

  • and ways to bridge the differences between nations.

  • The Venus Project International

  • will share research findings with participated countries

  • and with any other regions that will agree to join us

  • on the basis of mutual cooperation.

  • At this stage of development, major indications toward our goal

  • would be implementation of the wide scale automation by participated countries,

  • allowing its citizens to shorten the work week

  • or eliminate certain work occupations entirely.

  • Governments will have to commit to policies that aim to

  • full social and economical support of its population.

  • High level of production at marginal cost,

  • along with appropriate personal value shift of the general public,

  • will allow governments to build [the] first free access centers

  • to provide people with high quality of goods and services without price tags,

  • greatly reducing crime levels

  • and the rise [in] standard of living of every individual.

  • Incentives will be provided to induce interest

  • into advancement of educational level

  • and acquiring new specialization needed in automated society.

  • People who [are] going to enroll into new educational programs

  • will be provided with best available instructors, equipment, resources,

  • as well as with highly automated personalized research facilities.

  • [The] first wave of new specialists will be science promoters and educators

  • that will work to inspire more people to enjoin new educational programs.

  • [The] vast military industrial complex

  • will be converted into Special Contingency Force of first responders.

  • The advisory board of [the] international technological society

  • will survey the problematic areas of the globe

  • to direct Special Contingency Force

  • in order to deal with real problems,

  • such as natural and technological disasters,

  • epidemics, and pollution cleanup operations,

  • food and water shortage relief,

  • and other humanitarian activities of that sort.

  • When international political relationships [become] stabilized

  • on [the] values of peace and cooperation,

  • we expect [the] initial merger

  • of these closely developed countries to form United Continental Systems.

  • It will initiate [the] first truly global integrated

  • resource management and distribution processes

  • that will produce [the] need to create large scale integrated energy

  • and transportation systems.

  • Main focus of development will be channeled to lagging regions,

  • in order to shorten their time to join UCS.

  • This approach will allow us to break millennia-old relationships

  • based on mutual distrust and competition.

  • Unconditional help provided to underdeveloped regions by

  • United Continental Systems under the guidance

  • of The Venus Project International,

  • will allow us to arrive to agreement to declare

  • [the] Earth's resources as the common heritage of all the Earth’s people.

  • When benefits of freeing people from regimentation and subjugation will become evident,

  • it will be possible to initiate [a] global survey of available resources

  • to determine further steps we need to take toward [a] truly planetary society.

  • This will be a preliminary stage of implementation of the recourse-based economy.

  • At this stage we anticipate suspension of trade and use of money,

  • transition from human to cybernetic governments,

  • eradication of private property, labor, poverty, unemployment,

  • and most of the crime, elimination of weaponry worldwide,

  • and [the] end of separate nations.

  • All goods and services will be produced and delivered

  • by fully automated systems, and will be available to all people

  • without restriction, making universal standard of living

  • higher than at ANY time of our history.

  • People will peruse scientific knowledge in multiple areas

  • as a lifelong learning experience.

  • This society will initiate terraforming mega-projects,

  • counteracting effects of global warming,

  • harness power of ocean currents and geothermal energy,

  • making giant leaps with technologies inconceivable today.

  • But this will be just the beginning.

  • We can exceed by far, even wildest dreams

  • of all utopians of the past by applying best of our thinking,

  • and best of our technologies directly to our lives.

  • The future is always changing,

  • and there are no limitation to change.

  • There [are] no final frontiers.

  • It is we who shape the future. Thank you.

  • [Applause]
