Welcome to SABAA.education
NOW, that we as "humanity" created the epoch of the Anthropocene, the question put to all of us is:
What kind of an actor are we? With and in which system(s) do we engage? Plus: Can we evolve to a somewhat fair and reciprocal solution for really everyone in the system?
SABAA supports the idea and practice of circular economy.
SABAA supports changes from unsustainable & senseless growth with its outdated economic paradigms.
SABAA proposes a planet that provides for ALL life, including mankind.
