Our Story

It all begins with an idea. The idea here is to provide a place with curated materials on the predicament of humanity in relationship to the earth, each other, and all life. To provide a place to find tools to help mitigate our futures damage to our planet. To provide help for the emotional consequences of coming to know and feel our plight. To find comfort, joy, and gratitude in the moment. This place works to share goodness to what we face.

There is within human nature an amazing potential for goodness MLK.

Welcome to One WorldC12. As the name implies we live on this world… the only one we have. We are carbon life as all life is on this world. For the nerds among us the C12 reflects the most abundant isotope of carbon on earth which is due to a process in which was created in stars. Carl Sagan was right. We are made of stardust.

I am Dr. Douglas Chase and decided to add my voice and help for the anthropogenic damaged earth we all live in. I painted this canvas in 1975. I knew even then that humans were trying to control the planet… I did not know what I did not know. Yet I felt something. I painted it almost unconsciously….The time has come to be conscious.
