The Venus Project

The Venus Project began in 1975 by futurist Jacque Fresco. What he calls for is, in his words, "the intelligent management of Earth's resources". This means using technology for sustainable cities, energy efficiency, natural resource management and advanced automation.

It also means abolishing the economic system we have now that creates scarcity in the drive the profit. That means getting rid of money and having a resource-based economy.
