The Global Community Assessment Centre (GCAC) is the assessment Centre for the
Earth Community, the Human Family. It was created to give
individuals or organizations help and/or advice about negative events
happening in their communities which cause concern to people, resources,
industry or the
environment. GCAC is also the Centre of assessment of local/global
indicators about the four major quality systems: Environment, People, Economic
Development and the Availability of Resources. The assessment of these
indicators will result in giving the Earth Community a sense of direction as to
ensure a sound future for Earth.In order to do this GCAC will continue to
amass a body of scientific information based on formal assessments such as
those on
Biodiversity, Climate Change, Human Development Report, World Development
Report, struggle for Human and Earth Rights, life species Conservation, Health,
Economic Analyses, Commission on Sustainable Development, etc., which
have bridged the distance between incomplete science and contentious policy.
Local
and global indicators developed by the Earth Community will also be used
as basic scientific information.Furthermore, no one really understands what
assessment
processes have been most effective in the past, or why others have
failed. GCAC’s goal is to explore how assessment of local/global indicators can
better link
scientific understanding with the progressive implementation of effective
policy solutions to global changes. Achieving this integration is fundamental.
The Earth
Community needs this annual assessment to effectively manage global
changes.
Nowadays we are
living in the quite new life-state – in the STATE OF CHANGE. It is the result
of big science-technology progress. We are not adapted to live
and develop in such new life-conditions. The main cause of global crisis
is rapidly pacing moral degradation of existing forms of life not fitted to the
new, rapidly
changed conditions of life of human and nature. For avoiding global
catastrophe and achieving of sustainable development it is necessary to
substitute intellectual
evolution for social Darwinism. Computer simulation should be in state of
change a basic method of selection of developmental undertakings – in
"virtual reality",
instead of in practice.. Continuation in state of change of old patterns
of development through very expensive "trial and error" and putting
to the pieces forms of life
not fitted to the new life-conditions - in era of globalization lead us
to global catastrophe.
For avoiding the
global catastrophe we ought to change patterns of development. We - humankind -
ought to achieve ethical maturity and symbiotical skill to
develop "together with environment (social and/or natural)".
For this end we should incorporate into our socioeconomic infrastructure quite
new developmental
mechanisms – FEED FORWARD and ECOHUMANISTIC value system. We should
change patterns of consumption. Consumption of developed parts of world
society should be used as a drive of their intellectual, especially
innovative, activity. Consumption of weaker parts of world society should allow
them reach maturity
- education and possibility of their creative partnership cooperation in
sustainable development activity.
Nowadays, the
approaching dangerous must be eliminated in anticipatory way. Without Earth
community partnership and cooperation for common good it is
impossible to get access to adequate information and generate big
intellectual, innovative creativeness that is indispensable for anticipatory
elimination of negative
effects of rapidly pacing moral destruction of existing forms of life.
For life in state of
change we need efficient and SUBSIDIARITY multilevel GOVERNANCE. This
governance must be based on world integrated information
system - for aiding sustainable development policy.
For sustainable
development we especially have to:
1 - create the possibility of prediction and measurable valuation of complex
effects of socioeconomic activity and other changes in life-conditions of
human beings and nature,
2 - join access to wealth and deficit resources
with ecosocial usefulness of creative - especially innovation - activity.
As a result of it we
could reach an opportunity to create new economy – ecohumanistic economy
(eco-economy) - based on common good (egoaltruistic,
ecohumanistic) value system and complex, long-term calculations of
profits and costs (including social and environmental components).
To this end we ought
to create, by the UN, the professional World Center for a Strategy of
Sustainable Development
The main tasks of
this Center ought to be creation of:
1. world integrated
(and distributed) warning forecasting system,
2. world information system for prediction and measurable valuation of
complex effects of socioeconomic activity and other changes in conditions of
life.
3. ecohumanistic economy (eco-economy),
4. system of accumulation of intellectual and material resources that
could be necessary for avoiding non predicted dangers.
The creation of World
Information Basis for Sustainable Development is essential for avoiding global
catastrophe through Inclusive Globalization,
eco-economy, sustainable development, multilevel governance and
partnership for common good cooperation of world society and Earth community.
I hope this is OK to you.
Keep in touch.
