Our Mission
The Root Center is dedicated to the
easement of the basic stressors of human life (providing food,
water, shelter, energy and community) through the intelligent
application of simple technologies, thereby building a cornerstone
for a worldwide network of abundance to give every human being the
time and dignity to lead fulfilling lives and elevate the quality of
life for all.
We will integrate nature and
technology, traditional and modern. In this process we will enable
profound community development through a strong foundation of the
basic infrastructure of community living. Community centers will be
established to provide the tools and resources to explore humanity's
creative potential.
