I was very glad that Happy raised this important issue of Earth governance.

While new technologies and higher consciousness can lead to new political institutions, any decisions made today regarding extraterrestrial affairs would be made as they have in the past - in secret by an unaccountable clique. These decisions could have a profound and possibly irrevocable effect on Earth’s autonomy, as well as, on our personal safety and freedom.

In order to promote a discussion of how we can create a transparent and accountable way of making critical planetary decisions now, I drafted a proposed Earth Council Constitution. The proposed Constitution was published in the MUFON Journal, July 2020 in my article Take Me to Your Leader.  It can be viewed at mufonct.com under Essays.

In summary, the proposed Earth Council, composed of democratically selected representatives of nations, would be responsible for representing Earth in extraterrestrial relations, coordinating planetary defense and ensuring that any new technology be freely available. All decisions would be made in public and subject to ratification by member nations.

The proposed Earth Council is not a world government. Its powers are strictly limited and it would have no authority to interfere with a nation’s internal affairs, nor to infringe on individual rights.

I hope that forum members will examine and discuss the draft Earth Council Constitution and perhaps come up with alternative proposals. Please feel free to ask me questions via this website or the email contact shown in the article.

Best regards,
Kim MacDermotRoe
