Aren’t you tired of reading and writing about any number of social issues, injustices, and downright atrocities all around the world and yet nothing changes? So many people for so long have tried to bring about change by commenting on the issues and hoping for some action, but rarely does anything significant ever happen as a result!
Our Nutopia Project is all about designing and building an alternative system to the broken and corrupt one we have today, and focusing all our efforts on the solution instead of the futile bickering with bigots and naysayers and trying to get the attention of the powerful few who want nothing more than to keep the status quo.
We have a vision (of course a naïve one to many who can’t or refuse to see the world other than through the lens of today) for a better life for all people, and we are attempting to mobilize the global population, many of whom are disaffected, poor, or persecuted people living a nightmare in the crazy and unfair world we live in today, and to channel their collective effort to bring about real and lasting change.
Please take a look around our web site to get a sense for what we are trying to do. We have only just started and we may all be dreamers or crackpots with pipedreams, but maybe, just maybe, this could be the start of something to truly change the system before it is too late for us, our children, and our planet.
Please contact us or email us if you would like to hear more about how you can help.
Thank you for your time!

Before & After

Garage/Yard Sales

Before

Capitalism is all about the production and consumption of goods and we have become really good at it especially over the last 30 years. We are all participants in a system which makes us all work tirelessly to produce more and more goods and services, most of which we don't actually need, and which we are coerced in to buying by the endless bombardment of promotions and advertising showing us beautiful models, homes, and shiny things that we are powerless to resist. All this adds up to a world overflowing with products which pile up as we make impulse purchases and then replace them soon after because the next version or upgrade is on the market or because they break or become faulty.

Basements, attics, garages, and sheds in our homes and gardens today are filled to the brim with things we have purchased and accumulated which we are now done with because we are bored with them, we have outgrown them, or we have simply replaced them with the next new thing. We have built an entire multi-million dollar industry of Self Storage because so many people have now over-consumed to the point that even their big houses can no longer contain the things they have accumulated. There are even realty TV shows like "Hoarders" which highlights the plight of people who are unable to part with possessions, and the cumulative effect becomes a mountain of junk and garbage overtaking their home.

After

There are no possessions in Nutopia. No one owns anything from the moment they are born to the moment they die, they simply share items with everyone else in the community. When a person is assigned a home they can furnish it with items from the Central Sharing Facility and they can change items based on a Shared Item Schedule. People have a small collection of personal items such as basic clothes and shoes, toothbrush, and small personal memorabilia, which they carry with them in a Personal Items Container when they move to a different home, but everything else is shared. There is no build up of unwanted or unused items because items are requested, used, and then returned to the Central Sharing Facility where they are washed, cleaned, sanitized, and repaired if needed, ready for the next person to use. For example, a child's toy which is typically used for only a few months, is requested, played with, and then returned ready for the next child, instead of being put in a yard sale, or most likely ending up in a landfill.
