Pretending to be the plan 
that dramatically reduces human suffering and 
stabilizes Earth's life-support systems
by the year 2100!

Herein lies the drama of Mighty Plan: Most organizations and even many individuals have plans. Organizations have annual plans, five-year plans, and annual budgets. Individuals have a vision of what they want their lives to be like, even if it's just "find someone to love and have a family together." But as we begin this century, there is no widely-publicized coordinated plan for managing the current and growing problems facing humanity. In other words, no one has said something like this: 

“We have studied the problems predicted by many scientific studies, and here’s the plan to prevent or diminish these problems. Here’s how we will do it; and here’s what you can do to take part. These are the reasons for doing it, and here are the benefits that you will get. Finally, this is the date that we expect the goal to be reached, on Earth.”

The UN has no plan like this. No group of universities have created such a plan. No G-8 or other group of nations have offered a plan. No group of Fortune 500 corporations have created a plan. No major think tank or nonprofit organization has presented such a plan. Some religious bodies have offered "stewardship guidelines" for caring for humanity and the earth, but these are merely recommended plans, that come with few incentives for participation (and besides they are only for their members.) Therefore, up till now, no one has a presented a widely-publicized, widely-accepted plan for how individuals can deal with the expected destructive environmental, social, economic and political problems brought on by increasing population and other trends.

It's like being on a large ocean liner and finding out that no one knows if there's going to be enough fuel to get to dry land.  And no one knows if there will be enough food or medicine for the journey either. In fact, on this ocean liner, already one-sixth of the passengers are traveling in misery. And there are already many areas in the boat that are showing signs of major damage and loss of stability.

The drama is this: In this midst of this high-anxiety situation, one passenger has announced, "I think that I have a plan."

Who:  Group Genie, a think tank and division of World Peace One, a tax-exempt 501c3 nonprofit, based in the USA.

What: Mighty Plan is a plan that begins with individuals, and whose purpose is to dramatically reduce human suffering and death, and also stabilize Earth's life-support systems.

Where:  Since the plan starts from the individual level, you can begin it anywhere on Earth, if you can first arrange the ongoing support of one person for you, or a small group.

When: Beginning in October, 2007.  

Why:  There is no widely-accepted, viable plan for preventing widespread economic, political and environmental catastrophes in this century.  The plans we know of, are inadequate or incomplete. (See our article on Plan B 2.0 on the Group Genie website.)
The genies of Group Genie have various motivations for working to design a plan.  They include: a sense of moral obligation, compassion, increasing our own odds of survival, and showing off our creative abilities.
