Culturequake

Why do we have to participate in the destruction of the earth to be civilized? Why do we have to work to buy food? Weren’t food and land free once? Is there a better way to live? Are we living our truth? Are there wisdoms that we are not being taught? What changes will make a real difference?

Culturequake finds real long-term solutions by taking a hard look at the crises of our modern culture, how we got here and why we may not be able to fix civilization. Chuck Burr outlines a better way to live beyond modern consumer culture.
By seeing through whole-systems eyes, we can start living more in tune with our needs and more deeply connected to the earth. Don’t wait!—read this book and let us create a new culture together.


The idea that there is a different way to live that harmonizes our relations with all living beings is both comforting and exciting. Culturequake is a highly recommended read.

Chuck is doing the assessment and imagining that we need to move forward into the post petroleum age. Here is how we get a real life. We all can use this map to start shaking the paradigm in our local communities and families. Let’s get quaking and shake up the future! — Tom Ward, Siskiyou Mountain Quaker
