If we were to put the entire history of humankind into a 24-hour-day  it would only be in the past couple minutes that civilization has looked like this. Pollution. Exploitation. Isolation. Disparity. Symptoms of a society out of control  and certainly not one that was designed to last. But what if we could live differently? It turns out  more than 100 000 people already are  in ecovillages  cohousing  communes  and communities of all kinds around the world. Theyre working together to create fair  sustainable  and satisfying models of society.How can you find intentional communities? The answer is the Communities Directory -- an online and printed catalog of intentional communities in the US  and all over the planet. For 25 years the Fellowship for Intentional Community (FIC) has been building  innovating  and keeping this catalog fresh. A book to find the community that suits you!In addition to profiling more than 1 000 communities  the book includes full-page maps showing where communities are located  charts that compare communities by more than 30 different qualities  and an easy index to find communities interested in specific pursuits.
