Enviro Commons Inc. is the work of Hélène Julien. I am solely responsible for the ideas, architecture, build and content. This has been a decade-plus-long project. This is a one-woman operation. Hopefully, not for much longer!
Enviro Commons Inc. was registered in Canada in 2012. It was presented at The Globe Conference as a kiosk part of the Ontario Government pavillion in 2014. It was presented at other public events between 2014 and 2017. It was pulled out, re-imagined and re-written since then.
The hope is to have Enviro Commons become a coop with the public each owning one share each. As such it would have only employees - no investors. To make this happen, public contributions are necessary.
People willing to donate to help get this platform off the ground are welcome. You can donate on the Personal Dashboard using the Support Us button. This will be needed only until the time where the business can support itself. Please note that I will not ask for donations by any other means than the 'Support Us' button on this platform.
As a network initiative, this platform can only grow through sharing. I believe that a better future for the majority can only be created collaboratively. We must replace the status quo with systems that better serve the greater good and help humanity evolve in a more positive direction. There is no other organization on the planet designed to achieve collaboration across the sectors and with the public globally. Can you think of a better reason to share this platform than this?
Influence is a key factor with climate action. Do you want to governments and organizations to do more and act faster? Using this platform to do that ourselves will influence them to do the same. We have to Walk the Talk my friends!
Look at the words in the image above that describe the concept we call the Age of Aquarius. These also represent Enviro Commons. Being an Aquarian myself, I naturally created a project that represents Aquarian values of technology and humanitarianism. Looking back now after years of building, it feels to me that Enviro Commons is initiating the Age of Aquarius. It is a worldview/concept we can evolve/create into through collaborations aimed to create community spirit and change in the way Mr. Fuller describes below:
“You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

In the Initiation 2 event led by Lee Harris (opens in a new window) on Nov 1, 2023, he said of the most impactful statements I've ever heard:
"The power of your heart is the heart of your power."
This is oneness and collective power explained in 11 words. If you're ever at a loss as to how to best serve humanity, you know where to look. Another one that is really good is 'to raise your frequency, improve your habits'. His most April 1st video, Lee clarifies for people where we are and what we're seeing happen right now and where Enviro Commons fits in the picture. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/tq1vRWBMO6k?si=J6IpnmBugs3oCqdO (Link opens in a new window). Enviro Commons is going to create a storm that will calm down soon enough as people learn to understand and use its functionality to better the world. Not everyone will be for it but be aware of whose power is in the status quo and who feels threatened.
Before anything else though, we need to achieve liftoff. Whatever happens from here on in is up to all of us each doing our part. Some people believe we are here now on the planet at this time to do exactly what this initiative aims to do. I'm one of them. Let's make this the decades where we turn things around! Be a hero for yourself, us all and to the generations to come.

PS. #1 This has been a long transformation for me and music has helped me continue to be inspired. Since 2017 Dimash has served that purpose. Every song is beyond amazing and he's considered by many fans and most vocal coaches as the best singer in the world. I'm with them on that. His songs/videos 'One Sky' and "We Are One' and Olympico are the anthems for our times. (Turn on subtitles/auto-translate to clearly know the words even though most of the songs are in english - all links open in a new window. To see One Sky in concert go to the Almaty concert part 3. Starts at 25:45.) We're choosing life!! I've chosen these songs as they align with the message of this platform. Trust me when I say you will not be disappointed. I must also call out his wholly-new version of Ave Maria. It stands as a message of pure love from the Almighty to us all using Dimash's incredible gift as the vehicle. It gives me goosebumps every time and helps me reconnect with my heart energy. His breakout song is a French song that I've been a fan of since 1980 called SOS - d'un terrien en detresse which translates to an SOS from an earthling in distress - which is very appropriate for our times. Many of his fans can give you a big list of their favorite songs. To top it off, by all accounts he's a genuinely nice person who has worked very hard for a long time to get to where he is today.
I did a study on Dimash and how he inspires people to get a better sense of how inspiration and influence work in reality. They work hand-in-hand and both are critical for changing the world so you might want to watch a couple of Dimash videos to test it yourself. See how you feel afterwards. Also, go through the platform and see how ideas feel to you. I didn't collect statistics on Dimash but I can tell you that people cannot stop themselves from sharing with others what inspires them. This is key for this platform. Word of mouth is how Dimash grew his following and he now fills stadiums around the world and probably has the most loyal fan-base of anyone. The other thing I learned about inspiration is what we do to re-inspire ourselves. We listen to music we love over and over. We feel it every time as deeply as the first in many cases. Isn't that the incredible power of music? Why do you think that is? Music feeds our hearts and souls. We go searching for these experiences. If you didn't know, there are music reaction videos by lots of people including vocal coaches. I have favorites but this duo https://www.youtube.com/@Throga hit high because they are experienced coaches and willing to teach people about music. I've learned a lot from watching them react to Dimash. Reactors get huge views on reactions to Dimash. Tara Simons Studio is great too. Why does Dimash get more reactor views than just about any other singer/musician? Because people want to see how others react to him the first time they see him, you get to experience the inspiration hit with the goosebumps again and again. Because he does incredible things in 98% of his videos you get that re-inspiration hit with most of the reactions. What does this mean for Enviro Commons? Actually it tells me a lot. It tells me how important it is to inspire people. It tells me that people share a lot when inspired because of the number of comments. It tells me that experiences that have that 'extra' to them inspire us. It tells me that we need experiences that speak to our soul and our heart. It doesn't have to be something big - it could be the first time your baby says mama or dada. People that go beyond, go deeper, bring something extra valuable to the world inspire others. We hold close to us what inspires us. This platform is bringing people the opportunity to inspire each other by engaging in action to change the world for the better. Humanity wants and needs this so much it can't be overstated. People will want to know what those in the groups are doing. There's only one Dimash but there's room for lots of heroes and sheroes in the world. The work that you will do on this platform will impact MANY other people.
PS. #3 Lightworkers and Empaths - I hope you will work with me to raise the frequency of humanity through collaboration that is based in kindness, caring, deep listening, bringing greater possibility to people and when necessary, calling out b.s. Look for initiatives that you love. The world needs you and you can make a huge difference here. I hope you will find this platform to be a lighthouse that sends out a beacon of light to the world and together we can make the light stronger and spread to all the dark places in the world. I will tell you though that the dark will be triggered so it's together that our strength will win the day.
