The necessity for more of such an orientation has grown every day since the first Earth Day in 1970. The need for restoration of Nature at many scales is one such necessity.

One planet. Thousands of geopolitically defined units that relate one to one. Each unit is within or part of many regions, political, biological, hydrological, etc, thus sub-planet regions are many to many and uncountable.

Space Nation Earth, our future, requires a networked unity.

To get there a three point process is offered.

1. Acknowledge boundaries.
2. Work across them.
3. Think Local Planet, act regionally.
