WHAT IS A CRISIS COMMITTEE?
An independent, self-governing group in any locality in any part of the world concerned to mitigate the effects of the global crisis.
WHAT IS THE GLOBAL CRISIS?
It is a compound of environmental abuse, social disruption, individual degradation on a massive scale, resource wastage and economic despoliation.
HOW HAS THE CRISIS ERUPTED?
Economic and political arrangements have become so huge and over-centralised
that they are beyond the control of the citizen body and have
negated the normal democratic processes.
HOW DOES A CRISIS COMMITTEE WORK?
By meeting at regular intervals to clarify the particulars of the crisis and to decide what action its members should take.
WHAT FORMS OF ACTION?
Educational
activity to alert other members of the local community to the
dangers of the crisis.
Initiating positive local campaigns
of reform.
Linking with other Crisis Committees
to engage in wider reform moves.
Contingency planning of ways and
means to deal with the probable breakdown of essential services.
Establishing cooperative links
with organisations engaged with the various
aspects of the crisis
HOW IS A CRISIS COMMITTEE FORMED?
Anyone anywhere can call together a group of local people of shared concerns. There is no national or other body, no formalities or registration. The CC is its own regulating body concerned with grass roots activity to promote human survival and well-being.
