Welcome to the San Luis Obispo Chapter
The groupsite web platform will be changing into a monthly fee structure. In that regard, over the next months, many ZMCA chapters will migrate to a new platform (currently in test mode) that will not be subject to high monthly fees, and facilitate the coordination of awareness projects on the group level.
If anyone is interested in picking up with coordinating Zeitgeist Movement Chapter Activism on an ongoing basis in the area, please see the following link: Chapter Guidelines and contact the California coordinator on that page.

What is The Zeitgeist Movement?
Started in late 2008, The Zeitgeist Movement works in the interest to bring about a "Resource-Based Economy". This term refers to an economic structure based exclusively on strategic resource management as the starting point for all decisions. It is a ground up approach to considering our technical reality and applying modern scientific understandings to society. The Zeitgeist Movement is a sustainability advocacy organization in the broadest sense of the term.
The Movement itself is a global, non-centralized organization dedicated to not only educating the public about the merit of this approach, but to create a grassroots, global movement to actually make it happen. We have about 1100 Chapters in virtually every country with a database of subscribers exceeding 450,000 people across all languages, religions, creeds, and classes.
Basic Observations
If nature has taught us only one thing, it is that the only constant is change. Therefore, in order for us to grow productively as a species, we need to become experts at "changing our minds". If you choose to approach this material with a conscious attempt at being objective, we feel the ideas expressed here will realign your vision of the world, yourself, and the future of our human family in a way that is the most productive, humane and effective.
