Multiple-perspective co-channel communications as a knowledge and attitude reform tool for a sustainable civilization

The sustainability challenge is to help people learn how to reform their habits of learning so that civilization can be indefinitely sustainable. This implies finding out how to alter attitudes and predilections so as to promote symbioses between nature and cultures, and also to promote symbioses among our various cultures (linguistic, religious, ethnic etc.). It is posited here that by enabling persons to find and exhibit pathological and paradoxical aspects of public communications for each other, that a better understanding of needed changes, and commitment to making them can be cultivated. The multiple-perspective approach taken is partly a modern extension of Karl Kraus´ (1974) collage technique whereby he juxtaposed published statements in order to exhibit the falseness and folly of those statements and the hidden vested interests behind them, and partly some practical ways to add graffiti to mass media messages. Our global concern is to do something using philosophical and cyber-systemic insights and computer-communication tools to mitigate the wanton destruction of the non-renewable variety of living and cultural forms of our planet
